Conclusion

MERICAT J was developed by Merichem is a new wet treating process

for treating kerosene to meet jet fuel mercaptan specifications.

MERICAT J is truly a new step out process technology that can replace
the long used caustic / catalytic carbon bed processe

MERICAT J offers many advantages that include lower capital and

operating costs and more robust performance characteristics
