March 18 – Germany’s largest proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer has gone into operation at BASF’s Ludwigshafen site. Designed to produce CO2-free hydrogen, the electrolyzer has a connected load of 54 megawatts and the capacity to supply the main plant with up to one metric ton of this substantial chemical feedstock every hour. After a construction period of around two years, the plant was officially inaugurated recently in the presence of the Rhineland-Palatinate State Minister for Climate Protection, Environment, Energy, and Mobility Katrin Eder; and Udo Philipp, State Secretary at the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action.
Built in cooperation with Siemens Energy, the water electrolyzer is embedded in the production and infrastructure at the Ludwigshafen site, making it truly unique in terms of its interface and integration into a chemical production environment. A total of 72 stacks – modules in which the actual electrolysis process takes place – have been installed in the system. The electrolyzer has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at BASF’s main plant by up to 72,000 metric tons per year.
The emission-free production of hydrogen – using electricity from renewable sources – is fundamental to the market ramp-up of chemical
products with a reduced carbon footprint. Once produced, the hydrogen is fed into the site’s hydrogen Verbund network and distributed to the production facilities as a raw material. In addition to using, it as a feedstock for chemical products, BASF plans to supply hydrogen for mobility in the Rhine-Neckar Metropolitan Region, supporting the development of a hydrogen economy in the area.
In cooperation with the State of Rhineland-Palatinate, the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action provided funding of up to 124.3 million euros for the construction of the plant – 37.3 million euros of which was financed by the government of Rhineland-Palatinate. BASF’s investment in the project amounts to around 25 million euros. The project, entitled Hy4chem, was selected as part of the IPCEI Hydrogen expression of interest procedure and subsequently funded as an individual project.
Among other applications, hydrogen is used in the production of ammonia, methanol, and vitamins. Until now, hydrogen has been produced at the Ludwigshafen location primarily by means of natural gas-based steam reforming or as a coupling product and by-product. With the electrolyzer, BASF is now taking an important step in the transformation of hydrogen production technology.

March 18 – ABB and Charbone Hydrogen Corporation – an integrated green hydrogen production company based in Montreal, Canada – have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreement to collaborate on the development of up to 15 modular and scalable green hydrogen production facilities across North America over the next five years, providing a clean fuel source for existing hydrogen users and heavy industrial processes such as steelmaking, which currently use grey hydrogen as an energy source.
The MOU scope positions ABB as the preferred supplier for the design, engineering, fabrication, testing and supply of modular and standard electrical substations (ehouses) for the interconnection between production facilities and local utilities. ABB will support Charbone in standardizing basic engineering for systems and components across its project portfolio, to increase energy efficiency and reliability. Future scope may also see ABB operate as the main automation, electrification and telecom contractor depending on project requirements.
Among the sites covered by the collaboration is Charbone’s flagship Sorel-Tracy facility near Montreal in Québec, Canada. The facility is expected to be connected to the Hydro-Québec grid by the end of quarter two in 2025, using hydro electricity to power green hydrogen electrolyzers. The plant will create a blueprint for the design and engineering of modular and scalable equipment for other sites being developed by Charbone. The next project to get underway will be in the greater Detroit area in the US, which is the manufacturing base for major automotive companies.
Gouvernement du Québec has developed a localized Green Hydrogen and Bioenergy Strategy to support the deployment of hydrogen and bioenergy to power industrial sectors such as transportation, primary metals and chemicals. It identifies green hydrogen and bioenergy as having the potential to reduce Québec’s consumption of petroleum products by nearly one billion liters a year by 2030. This could cut the region’s greenhouse gas emissions by four megatons of carbon dioxide a year – the equivalent of removing 1.2 million gasoline-powered vehicles from the roads.

OMV Inaugurates New Innovative Plant to Process Hard-to-Recycle Mixed Plastic Waste
OMV has now started-up the next-scale expansion of its innovative proprietary Reoil technology at the Schwechat refinery near Vienna.
(Source: OMV)
March 21 – OMV has recently announced a significant milestone in the chemical industry following 15 years of pioneering research and development. The company has now started-up the next-scale expansion of its innovative proprietary Reoil technology at the Schwechat refinery near Vienna. OMV’s new plant can process up to 16,000 metric tons of hard-to-recycle mixed plastic waste annually - equivalent to the annual plastic waste generated by 160,000 Austrian households.
Reoil was initially developed in 2009, positioning OMV as one of the global pioneers in chemical recycling. Its goal was to enhance the sustainability of plastics by reintegrating valuable resources into the value chain, thereby avoiding their disposal through incineration or landfill. Reoil achieves this by transforming post-consumer mixed plastic waste into pyrolysis oil, which serves as a raw material for producing sustainable base chemicals. These chemicals are then converted into various essential everyday applications, including food packaging, healthcare products, and components for electric vehicles. The Reoil technology unleashes a positive environmental effect: In 2030, a 34 percent reduction of CO2 can be achieved if post-consumer mixed plastic waste is chemically recycled in the Reoil plant instead of being incinerated.
The initial Reoil pilot plant at the OMV Schwechat refinery has been operational since 2018, achieving nearly 30,000 cracking hours to date. During this pilot period, more than 2.1 million kilograms of plastic waste have been processed sustainably. The successful operations of the pilot plant prompted the decision to construct a larger, scaled-up facility, which OMV has now completed and started-up. Both Reoil plants are ISCC Plus certified.
As a next step, OMV is developing a first-of-its-kind full-scale industrial plant for chemical recycling. The final investment decision by OMV for this plant is subject to internal approvals. On March 12, 2025, OMV secured up to 81.6 million euros in EU funding for its industrial Reoil plant - the largest public grant ever awarded to the OMV Group.

March 29 – BASF has recently announced the start-up of the world’s first commercial loopamid plant. The production facility at the Caojing site in Shanghai, China, has an annual capacity of 500 metric tons and marks an important step in the supply of sustainable products for the textile industry.
loopamid is a recycled polyamide 6 that is entirely based on textile waste. The new production facility supports the growing demand for sustainable polyamide 6 fibers in the textile industry.
The plant as well as the quantities of loopamid produced are certified according to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS). This certification guarantees to consumers and textile manufacturers that loopamid is made from recycled materials and that the production processes comply with specific environmental and social criteria. In addition, first yarn manufacturers are successfully using loopamid.
To produce loopamid in its new plant, BASF currently utilizes industrial textile waste from textile manufacturing and will gradually increase the share of post-consumer waste. This feedstock includes cutting scraps, defective cuts, offcuts and other production textile waste from the textile industry. These materials are collected and provided to BASF by customers and partners.
End-of-life garments made from polyamide 6 and other textile products can also be utilized for the production of loopamid. All these waste materials are challenging to recycle because they typically consist of a mixture of different fibers and materials as well as dyes and additives. Additionally, for post-consumer waste recycling, buttons, zippers and accessories must be removed in advance. BASF works closely with partners and customers to accelerate the development of collection and sorting systems.
