Jet fuel refining
End use application
Our Attapulgite clay is:
-
free from mineral acid
-
high in natural porosity
-
high affinity towards sorption of trace impurities
​
End use application as an adsorbent industrial mineral media for jet fuel clarification:
-
MEROX Technology (a proprietary UOP technology process that sweetens jet fuel and kerosene); and
-
MERICHEM Technologies
​
Aviation industry needs safe, high quality fuels for refueling and oil refineries must meet stringent international specifications of fuels. Our Attapulgite clay raw ore is utilised in a range of attapulgite adsorbents for jet fuel clarification and kerosene treatment.
How does it work?
Through its highly active surface area and unique porosity, Attapulgite clay effectively removes polar compounds, helps to reduce acidity and corrosiveness and prevents bacterial growth in jet fuel.
​
Our Attapulgite clay is utilised by manufacturers and jet fuel refineries in Australia, Asia Pacific, South Asia and the Middle East, to ensure the jet fuel clarification meets the stringent requirements relating to thermal stability and water reactivity, resulting in an optimal performance of the jet fuel.
​
Also utilised in processing liquid paraffin.
