Catalyst Pelletizing

Our wide array of pelleting technology has been utilized in the catalyst industry to make cylindrical or spherical pellets of the size, shape and physical properties required for the application.

LCI pelleting technology provides solutions for forming catalyst pellets with the exact product characteristics required. We provide laboratory equipment for developing your catalyst pelleting process that can easily be scaled up to our production equipment.

Process benefits include:

Improved flowability
Better shape/size distribution
Excellent process repeatability
High Yield

Basket Granulator™ Extruder

Basket type extruder is gravity fed rather than screw fed, resulting in extremely low pressure extrusion.

Twin Dome Granulator™ Extruder

The patented Twin Dome Granulator (TDG) Extruder offers high capacity twin screw extrusion through a hemi-spherical die that allows for uniform extrusion pressure and shear.

Xtruder™ (Axial) Extruder

Twin screws transport the wet material to the extrusion zone where it is wiped through the perforated axial die plate to produce well-formed cylindrical extrudates of a controlled diameter.

Continuous Kneader

Continuous Kneaders

Mixes powders and liquids together continuously to form a homogeneous wet mass. Superior kneading action mixes ideal for continuous downstream processes that require consistent moisture levels.

Multi Granulator MG-55 Lab Extruder

Most versatile laboratory extruder used to create granules ranging from 0.6mm to 8.0mm in diameter with three extrusion configurations.
