歐洲煉油催化劑市場-IMG1

歐洲淨化催化劑市場趨勢與洞察

歐洲對燃料中的硫含量和排放氣體製定了更嚴格的規定。

根據歐盟燃料品質指令,在歐盟範圍內銷售的柴油和汽油的硫含量必須低於10ppm。這項要求凸顯了歐洲煉油廠對加氫催化劑處理能力和性能的需求。這也導致歐洲煉油催化劑市場的需求多樣化。生產傳統超低硫柴油的煉油廠使用成熟的鈷鉬和鎳鉬混合催化劑。而加工生物來源基混合原料的煉油廠則需要對高氧濃度和微量金屬污染具有更強耐受性的混合催化劑。為了滿足合規標準帶來的各種產品需求,HoneywellUOP擴展了其用於流體化媒裂(FCC)預處理、柴油、煤油和真空瓦斯油的加氫催化劑產品線。

更換老舊煉油廠的催化劑並解決瓶頸問題

歐洲許多煉油廠的資產都包含老化的設備,其催化劑更換週期與瓶頸消除活動重疊。雖然FCC裝置通常每2-5年需要更換一次催化劑,但固定台加氫反應器的運作週期更長。從2024年起,產能削減將使加工轉移到仍在運作的煉油廠。加工量的增加可能會加速催化劑的失活並縮短更換週期。此外,原油成分的多樣化增加了對FCC催化劑以及耐金屬加氫催化劑的需求。因此,歐洲煉油廠催化劑市場為複雜裝置的升級改造提供了機遇,這些裝置需要應用工程和高活性產品,這與標準催化劑供應不同。

歐洲煉油廠合理化改造和石化燃料需求下降

歐洲煉油廠的關閉減少了催化劑消耗裝置的數量。國際能源總署(IEA)預測,到2030年,歐洲至少有100萬桶/日的煉油產能面臨關閉風險。自2024年初以來,煉油廠的關閉已使運作中的煉油廠網路減少了40萬至50萬桶/日。這些關閉的煉油廠包括蘇格蘭格蘭傑茅斯煉油廠、殼牌公司韋瑟林工廠和英國石油公司蓋爾森基興工廠的蒸餾產能削減。然而,催化劑需求受到的影響與煉油量的減少並非成正比。仍在運作的煉油廠擴大採用流體化媒裂(FCC)、加氫裂解和深度加氫處理設備,這些設備每桶原油的催化劑消耗量高於傳統的、較為簡單的煉油廠。因此,在歐洲煉油催化劑市場,對基礎加氫裂解催化劑的需求可能會下降,而對高性能 FCC 和加氫裂解催化劑的需求預計將保持相對穩定。

細分市場分析

預計到2025年,沸石將佔區域需求的32.86%,並將以4.46%的複合年成長率成長至2031年。這一地位反映了沸石在流體化媒裂(FCC)和加氫裂解中作為活性分解組分的重要作用。超穩定Y型沸石(USY)為FCC設備提供活性分解能力。其大型超籠結構有利於重油中高分子量烴的分解。 ZSM-5可提高低碳烯烴和芳烴化合物的選擇性,並且與USY配合使用時,可使產品組成向汽油和丙烯方向轉變。BASF擁有用於FCC應用的磷穩定MSE(美孚7-11)骨架沸石的專利,該沸石在高分解強度下表現出更優異的水熱穩定性。

Zeolist International公司推出了Opal Renew沸石產品線,拓展了沸石在生物來源原料領域的應用,該產品線專為可再生燃料的加工而設計。 CoMo和NiMo配方在汽油、煤油、柴油、減壓瓦斯油、FCC汽油和殘渣原料的加氫處理中繼續發揮至關重要的作用。由於其成熟的供應鏈、再處理方法和廣泛的供應商基礎,這些產品構成了加氫處理催化劑消費的核心。氧化鋁基貴金屬催化劑在催化重整領域雖然市佔率較小,但利潤豐厚。 NiW級催化劑用於高壓加氫裂解應用,該領域對氮耐受性要求較高。隨著煉油廠混合含氧量和金屬含量更高的原料,歐洲煉油催化劑產業越來越重視改良沸石和雙金屬配方,以延長運作。

Europe Refining Catalysts - Market - IMG1

Europe Refining Catalysts Market Trends and Insights

Stricter European Fuel-Sulfur and Emissions Requirements

Diesel and gasoline sold across the European Union must comply with a maximum sulfur content of 10 parts per million under the Fuel Quality Directive. This requirement supports demand for hydrotreating catalyst capacity and performance at European refineries. It also creates varying requirements across the European refining catalysts market. Refineries producing conventional ultra-low-sulfur diesel use established cobalt-molybdenum and nickel-molybdenum formulations. Refineries processing biogenic co-feeds require formulations that tolerate higher oxygen levels and trace-metal contamination. Honeywell UOP has expanded its hydrotreating portfolio for fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) pretreatment, diesel, kerosene, and vacuum gas oil applications, reflecting the broader product requirements created by compliance standards.

Catalyst Replacement and Debottlenecking in Aging Refineries

European refining assets include many aging facilities, where catalyst replacement cycles coincide with debottlenecking activities. FCC units generally require catalyst replacement every two to five years, while fixed-bed hydroprocessing reactors operate on longer cycles. Capacity reductions since 2024 have shifted more throughput to refineries that remain operational. Higher throughput can accelerate catalyst deactivation and shorten replacement schedules. A broader crude slate can also increase FCC catalyst top-up requirements and support demand for metals-tolerant hydroprocessing grades. The European refining catalysts market therefore presents upgrade opportunities at complex sites, where application engineering and high-activity products differ from standard catalyst supply.

European Refinery Rationalization and Declining Fossil-Fuel Demand

European refinery closures have reduced the installed base of catalyst-consuming units. The International Energy Agency (IEA) expects at least 1 million barrels per day of European refining capacity to be at risk of closure by 2030. Since early 2024, closures have removed 400,000-500,000 barrels per day from the operating network. These closures include the Grangemouth refinery in Scotland, Shell's Wesseling plant, and a reduction in distillation capacity at BP's Gelsenkirchen site. However, the impact on catalyst demand may not directly correspond to the decline in refining throughput. Surviving refineries are increasingly adopting fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), hydrocracking, and deep hydrotreatment configurations, which consume more catalyst per barrel than simpler refinery operations. Consequently, the Europe refining catalysts market may experience lower demand for basic hydrotreating catalysts, while demand for high-performance FCC and hydrocracking catalyst grades remains comparatively stable.

Other drivers and restraints analyzed in the detailed report include:

  1. Hydrocracking and Hydrotreating for Crude-Slate Flexibility
  2. Co-Processing of Waste and Bio-Based Feedstocks
  3. High Manufacturing Costs and Pressure on Refinery Margins

Segment Analysis

Zeolites held 32.86% of regional demand in 2025 and are projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.46% through 2031. Their position reflects their role as active cracking components in fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) and hydrocracking. Ultra-stable Y zeolite (USY) provides the active cracking function in FCC units. Its large supercage structure supports the cracking of macromolecular hydrocarbons in heavy oil. ZSM-5 improves light-olefin and aromatic selectivity and can be co-loaded with USY to shift the product mix toward gasoline or propylene. BASF has received a patent for phosphorus-stabilized MSE (Mobile Seven Eleven)-framework zeolites for FCC applications, indicating improved hydrothermal stability at higher cracking severity.

Zeolyst International has introduced its Opal Renew zeolite line for processing renewable fuels, extending zeolite applications to biogenic feedstocks. CoMo and NiMo formulations remain important for hydrotreating gasoline, kerosene, diesel, vacuum gas oil, FCC gasoline, and residual feeds. Their established supply chains, regeneration practices, and broad supplier base make them a core component of hydrotreating catalyst consumption. Alumina-based noble-metal catalysts represent a smaller, higher-margin segment in catalytic reforming. NiW grades are used in high-pressure hydrocracking applications that require stronger nitrogen resistance. As refineries blend feedstocks with higher oxygen and metals content, the Europe refining catalysts industry places greater emphasis on modified zeolitic and bimetallic formulations that offer longer campaign stability.
