Originally developed for nitric acid plants, this advanced catalytic process has since been successfully adapted for the off-gas cleaning of a wide range of chemical and energy-related applications – including caprolactam, adipic acid, niacin production. In addition, EnviNOx® is being further developed for future use in ammonia combustion and cracking processes, supporting the transition toward carbon-free energy.

Digital transformation in plant engineering is a multifunctional task. Dr. Tobias Rabsahl gives an insight into his varied day-to-day work.

Dr. Christian Renk works at thyssenkrupp Uhde, developing green technologies for a more sustainable industry.

Green hydrogen is a promising and sustainable energy carrier. However, its transport is anything but energy efficient. We explain why transporting hydrogen by ship is not sustainable and why green ammonia is a good solution.

Air travel causes around 3.1 percent of global CO2 emissions and will continue to rise in the coming years. Researchers at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) even predict that air travel will increase by 3.5 % annually by 2040. So it's high time to develop alternative fuels, so-called Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF).

Ammonia, the small molecule that became well-known in the 19th century through fertilizer production in agriculture, is now one of the most produced chemicals in the world. And it is becoming increasingly important - in future also as a transport medium for hydrogen. In the future, ammonia could play a key role in driving forward the green transformation of industry - as a transport medium for green hydrogen.
