Dense and insulating refractory products for primary reforming applications (steam reforming) must be able to withstand temperatures up to 1000°C in certain cases. Saint-Gobain provides support and products for efficient refractory design and lining of such reactors used to convert natural gas into syngas.
We supply refractory shapes as alumina-silica fire bricks that offer high chemical resistance and long service life for steam reforming units.
