Robustness means that a catalyst is able to maintain its desired performance over a wide range of operating conditions. In fuel processing, catalysts face greater challenges to their robustness compared to most standard industrial applications...
Instead of steady-state operation, a fuel processor may go from 10% to 100% power within a few seconds. Or it may start up and shut down frequently.
For this reason, we design superior robustness into every Süd-Chemie catalyst, so that it is able to handle this industry's unique transients and operating conditions—and still perform!
