B207 TYPE LOW-TEMPERATURE CO SHIFT CATALYST
B207 type low-temperature CO shift catalyst, an improved successor to B202, B204 and B206 catalysts, was developed and produced by Research Institute of NCRI to meet the demand of saving energy in synthetic ammonia plants. It is widely used in the synthetic ammonia plants and hydrogen-generating plants with natural gas, petroleum associated gas, light oil or coal as raw material, especially in the plants operating on low ratio of steam to dry-gas for energy saving.

Commercial Application
B207 catalyst has been successfully used in large-and medium-size synthetic ammonia plants in China. The results show it has high activity and stability in the ammonia plants operating on low ratio of steam/dry-gas for energy saving. The indexes of B207 are equal or superior to the imports now used in large-size ammonia plants in China.
