An indication of what 0.1% attrition really means in relation to a relatively small 10 cubic metre catalyst bed containing 50 drums of material at a typical average cost of £1000 per 200 litre drum.  
Note :- HISTORICALLY 50% ATTRITION IS NOT UNHEARD OF IN THE INDUSTRY AND BETWEEN 10% T0 30% IS QUITE COMMON  
 
What the above illustrates is that unnecessary attrition losses in a relatively small 10 cubic metre bed when scaled up to the total consumption of catalysts and molecular sieves in a refinery can easily run into hundreds of thousands of pounds per year.  
Note:- Added Value
A Dialog Technivac loaded bed can have a significant impact on production costs by providing longer bed life, decreased down time, increased production rates and less frequent cycling. In other words we can help you to maximise your profits.
