Following on from the success of its LK-821-2 LTS catalyst, Haldor Topsoe A/S introduces its new LK-823 catalyst, giving ammonia producers an increased reduction in methanol emission.
New regulations limiting the amount of methanol that ammonia and hydrogen plants can legally emit to the atmosphere are being implemented in many areas. Haldor Topsoe A/S has developed an LTS catalyst, which reduces methanol formation drastically, enabling ammonia and hydrogen plants to comply with the regulations without undertaking major investments in new equipment.
