PROCESS Worldwide brings to you the ‘Top 10 plant engineering projects of June 2022’ from all over the world. Right from Oman developing its first waste-to-hydrogen facility to Europe starting up an e-cracking furnace experimental unit, find out all the projects making headlines here.

Industrial gases company Air Products announced that its subsidiary Air Products San Fu recently brought two new air separation units onstream. The project is part of the long-term agreements to provide ultra-high purity industrial gases to one of the world’s largest semiconductor manufacturers in Asia.

Under a long-term agreement signed between both the parties, Linde will supply liquid oxygen and nitrogen from its Mims air separation plant, which is currently under expansion, to the leading space launch company in Florida.

Grab sampling is an important function in industrial fluid systems, but a few common problems can negatively impact efficiency, representativeness, and operator safety.

The new zero liquid discharge plant has been inaugurated by Evonik Catalysts at its facility in Dombivli, India. The plant aims to improve the treatment of process water and was developed in association with Remondis.

Gather has resolutely continued the further development of its pump range with the 3 series. The new chemical process pump achieves flow rates of up to 4,000 l/h (with pressure differences of up to 14 bar).

With an action plan to promote ‘green petrochemical clusters’, the Chinese southern province of Guangdong wants to encourage further growth in the industry. The ambitious plans are valid up to 2025, i.e. parallel to the People's Republic's new five-year plan, which is currently being tied up in the corridors of power in Beijing. What is the industry’s future in the region?

The new facility is expected to initially convert up to one million tons of municipal solid waste annually, later it can be expanded up to four million tons of waste, to produce 67,000 tons of green hydrogen and one million tons of CO₂.

Evonik has plans to sell off its printable battery technology – Taettooz to Innovation Lab with an aim to commercialize the technology which can be used in the medical field for more convenient monitoring of vital functions.

Air Products has plans to construct a 10 metric ton per day facility to produce green liquid hydrogen in Casa Grande, Arizona. The produced hydrogen will then be supplied to the mobility market in California as well as other places that require zero-carbon hydrogen.
