PROCESS Worldwide brings to you the ‘Top 10 plant engineering projects of May 2022’ from all over the world. Right from developing a world scale ethylene plant in Europe to building one of the world’s largest PDH units in China, find out all the projects making headlines here.

Bosch Industrial Heat will be showcasing sustainable steam and heat solutions for global industrial use at the upcoming Achema trade fair in Germany.

Transform Materials has partnered with Johnson Matthey to develop a solution that emits fewer carbon emissions when compared to traditional coal-based processes to produce vinyl chloride monomer for PVC production.

Cost plays a vital role while developing industrial plants but by opting for a modular plant, capex costs, material costs and even labor costs can be slashed. Also, modular, skid-mounted units are developed in-doors under controlled environments and at speed which helps to save valuable time for industry players.

Under a joint collaboration, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and NGK Insulators are working together to develop a hydrogen purification system that makes use of membrane separation to purify from the hydrogen-nitrogen mixture gas after the ammonia cracking process.

With an aim to manufacture advanced and energy efficient Solid Oxide Electrolyzer Cells for clean hydrogen production, Topsoe will be setting up a factory in Virginia, USA. The move follows the company receiving nearly 136 million dollars in federal Section 48C tax credits from the Inflation Reduction Act.

Lummus’ new renewable dimethyl ether technology can process numerous types of methanol to produce renewable dimethyl ether. The technology is also capable of lowering Capex and Opex.

Under a MOU signed between both the parties, Thyssenkrupp Uhde and Johnson Matthey will make use of their individual expertise to offer a fully integrated blue ammonia solution.

Linde under its subsidiary White Martins has plans to build, own and operate a second electrolyzer to produce green hydrogen in Brazil. On completion, the plant is expected to supply green hydrogen to glass manufacturer Cebrace to reduce emissions from their glass melting furnaces.

Under the terms of the technology licensing agreement, Reliance will be provided with an exclusive license for Nel’s alkaline electrolyzers in India and it will also allow Reliance to manufacture Nel’s alkaline electrolyzers for captive purposes globally.
