Sustainable and compliant syngas waste disposal solution systems
Solutions for Syngas Production Byproducts
Partnering with Syngas Producers
The Amlon Group collaborates with syngas producers to implement forward-thinking waste management practices that embody our vision of converting environmental obstacles into sustainable advantages.
The production of synthesis gas creates multiple residual streams requiring expert handling, particularly from catalyst systems and reforming equipment. Our integrated approach addresses these challenges.
Catalyst Reclamation and Processing
We specialize in recovering valuable metals from spent catalysts critical to syngas production:
Nickel Reformer Catalysts: Complete processing of spent steam reforming catalysts to recover nickel while managing other support materials
Copper and Copper/Zinc Catalysts: Advanced separation techniques to reclaim copper and zinc from water-gas shift and methanol synthesis catalysts
Iron Chrome Catalysts: Specialized processing for high-temperature water-gas shift catalysts, extracting iron and chromium for reuse
Reformer Equipment Recovery
Our facilities process end-of-life equipment from syngas operations:
Catalyst-Containing Equipment: Processing of reactors and vessels with catalyst residues
High-Temperature Alloy Components: Recovery of valuable metals from furnace components and piping systems
AMLON ADVANTAGE
We convert additional manufacturing residuals into beneficial resources using our advanced processing technologies. Our facilities handle solidified byproducts, extract valuable metals, and generate usable materials that decrease dependence on new resources.
Impurity Processing
Amlon’s facilities are designed to process the impurities present in syngas production waste, including carbon deposits, sulfur compounds, and metallic contaminants from catalyst deactivation. Through tailored treatment protocols, we safely extract these substances while ensuring adherence to environmental standards.
BENEFITS
Our sustainability commitment permeates all operations. For syngas manufacturers, we deliver tailored solutions with:
