MIRATECH Innovation Center MIRATECH’s Innovation Center, located at our Tulsa headquarters, is a fully integrated R&D and Test Facility. With its proximity to MIRATECH’s product development engineering team and fabrication facilities, the primary focus of the Innovation Center is development and performance testing of new products. This free-standing complex includes four engine test beds, including […]

Our gas turbine customers span a wide spectrum of applications, including: Central power plants operating large gas turbines in baseload and peaker configurations Industrial facilities, hospitals and universities practicing distributed generation using small- to mid-sized gas turbines Natural gas compression and transmission stations operating gas turbines to drive large compressors You’ll find them using MIRATECH […]

MIRATECH is proud to say that we have been an OEM developer and manufacturer of catalyst and nano-phase surface chemistry products for twenty-five years. Numerous patents in North America, Europe and Asia are a testament to our innovation and dedication to the industry. MIRATECH is not only a supplier of emission control catalysts for reciprocating […]

MIRATECH uses sophisticated laboratory analyses to characterize the chemical and physical properties of a catalyst.  These analyses are an essential part of new catalyst development and routine process control measurements within the manufacturing plant. In the hands of our engineers and chemists, these tools also provide clear root cause answers to forensic investigations of why […]

Catalyst Support Structures For Combustion Turbines And HRSGs MIRATECH has designed and supplied over 100 catalyst support structures for combustion turbines and HRSGs. Sizes range from single-section structures for small 5 MW turbines up to six-section structures for exhaust streams exceeding 5,000,000 pounds per hour Materials of construction include carbon steel (coated and uncoated), Corten […]

It’s a practical question: “If I wash my catalyst, how do I know its performance has rebounded? Is it worth reinstalling, or is it time to replace it?” We hear it all the time from our customers and that’s why we developed the multi-lambda catalyst test system (MLCTS®). Making the decision to replace an expensive […]

The Science Behind Catalyst Performance Testing Reactor performance testing is one of many analytical tools used to evaluate a catalyst. MIRATECH also uses sophisticated laboratory instruments to examine the physical and chemical properties of a catalyst microscopically, down to the atomic level. These forensic methods reveal root causes for changes in catalyst behavior, such as […]

A precious metal catalyst retains an asset value throughout its life. When the catalyst reaches the end of its service life it can be processed to recover precious metals such as platinum, rhodium and palladium. MIRATECH’s philosophy is that precious metals on your catalyst belong to you. Let us recover the precious metals from your […]

Why Wash a Catalyst? Engine exhaust gas is a dirty environment—catalysts get covered with sulfated ash, zinc, phosphorus and all sorts of contaminants. If it’s a MIRATECH catalyst, those contaminants probably haven’t permanently deactivated the catalyst—they may have just covered up the catalyst’s active ingredients—the precious metals. Catalyst durability is key, and MIRATECH catalysts are […]

Localized Inventory Catalysts come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and formulations to match a broad range of engine sizes, application and site conditions. MIRATECH’s network of distributors and owned facilities throughout the world maintains a large inventory of our catalysts.       Catalyst Performance Testing How much performance life is left in […]
