(BASF) -- BASF, the global leader in
catalysis, has announced a new round of capital investment projects to increase
its production capacity and further enhance its global manufacturing operations
for copper and copper-chrome catalysts.
These investments are
aimed at improving catalyst manufacturing efficiency to meet increased global
demand. They follow an earlier round of process improvement and capacity
enhancement projects for the copper-chrome product line that were completed
earlier this year. BASF produces a wide variety of
base-metal catalysts, which are primarily used in petrochemical and oleochemical
processing. Typical catalyst applications include guard beds; hydrogenation
processes, such as solvent and gasoline dearomatization; dehydrogenation
processes; monomer production; and manufacturing of specialty and detergent
alcohols.
