BP has plans to assess the feasibility of establishing a new hydrogen hub at Wilhelmshaven, Germany as the location is also expected to witness the construction of a large-scale ammonia cracker. The cracker project has the potential to supply up to 130,000 tons of low-carbon hydrogen from green ammonia annually.

OCI Global has partnered with Petrofac for delivering OCI’s programme of gasification-based green methanol projects. The programme aims to support the production of low-carbon feedstock for OCI’s existing methanol facilities.

Technip Energies has bagged the Feed contract from Exxonmobil to develop the mega project which is expected to produce one billion cubic feet of low-carbon hydrogen per day. Also, more than 98 % of the associated CO2 produced by the facility is expected to be captured and permanently stored.

Plug Power will deliver two hydrogen liquefiers to TC Energy Corporation. The highlight of these systems is that it makes use of a hydrogen refrigeration cycle and is claimed to be one of the most energy efficient designs in the market.

Mintal Hydrogen has selected Topsoe to supply technology for the first dynamic green ammonia plant in Baotou, Inner Mongolia, China. The unit is expected to produce 390,000 tons green ammonia annually.

Today, Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) facilities around the world have the capacity to capture more than 40 Mt CO2 each year, according to the International Energy Agency. This figure is set to increase as more countries form CCUS-friendly policies in order to establish these green projects with aim to decarbonize its industrial facilities.

In line with the goals of the European Green Deal, Ineos Olefins Belgium has plans to create the region’s most eco-friendly and sustainable cracker project ever at a whooping cost of 3+ billion euros. The landmark ‘Project One’ will be located at the port of Antwerp in Belgium and will make use of the latest technologies to produce ethylene with the lowest carbon footprint in all of Europe.

PROCESS Worldwide brings to you the ‘Top 10 plant engineering projects of January 2023’ from all over the world. Right from inaugurating one of the world’s largest plants for krypton, xenon production to developing the world's largest low-carbon hydrogen facility, find out all the projects making headlines here.

Under a MOU signed between both the parties, CF Industries and Lotte Chemical will jointly explore the production of clean ammonia in the U.S. along with long-term clean ammonia offtake into South Korea.

Hycc’s green hydrogen project H2ermes is expected to produce 100 MW of green hydrogen in order to reduce emissions from numerous sectors such as steel, aviation, mobility and shipping in the broader Amsterdam region, the Netherlands.
