Catalysts are enabling the sustainability transformation: CO2 utilization and H2 storage
Catalysis has always been an important driver of industrial development and is key technical skill of modern society. The sustainability transformation towards net-zero is the next development step that will to a significant part be driven by innovative in catalysts. New chemical process technologies are emerging, enabling the transition towards energy vector molecules like ammonia, methanol, DME, and others. Catalysts are at the heart of most chemical plants, and are decisive in optimizing their performance.
Recent advancements in catalytic technologies for sustainable processes will be discussed, with a focus on their applications in industrial demonstration plants, an essential step where collaboration between technology licensors and catalyst suppliers is crucial for demonstrating the achievement of commercial scale.
