Anaerobic Chamber Air Purification
Palladium Catalysts for Oxygen Removal
For over 40 years, Anco Catalysts has supplied palladium catalysts for anaerobic chambers and controlled atmosphere systems used in microbiological, medical, and laboratory applications.
Anco Catalysts usually provides the catalyst only. The manufacturer of the anaerobic chambers produces the sachets incorporating our catalysts.
Our catalysts are used in:
- Anaerobic chambers
- Glove boxes
- Bell jars
- Anaerobic gas chambers
- Laboratory jar systems
These systems maintain oxygen-free atmospheres required for anaerobic bacterial growth and sensitive biological processes.
Catalyst Types
We supply several palladium-on-alumina catalyst grades:
Type DK
0.5% Palladium on alumina pellets
High strength and reduced dusting
Type DK3
- 0.3% Palladium on alumina pellets
Type DS2
0.2% Palladium on alumina spheres
System Performance
Our catalyst systems operate at room temperature and reduce oxygen levels to below 1 ppm.
Typical operation involves circulating a nitrogen/hydrogen gas mixture through the catalyst, where oxygen reacts with hydrogen to form water vapour.
Key Features
- Continuous oxygen removal
- Stable anaerobic atmosphere control
- Closed-loop gas treatment
- Long operational life
- Reliable continuous performance
Catalyst Protection
Sulphur compounds such as H₂S and SO₂ can reduce catalyst performance.
To extend operational life, carbon guard beds are commonly used to remove contaminants before the gas stream reaches the catalyst.
