Our research and development teams are working to design and produce catalysts that are highly effective, durable, and sustainable.’
‘We are partnering with BASF to keep making significant improvements on our EnviNOx technology…This partnership brings additional benefits for our customers, as well as to the environment as a whole, by providing high-quality, cost-effective solutions to address complex environmental challenges,’ adds Ralph Kleinschmidt, head of technology and innovation at thyssenkrupp Uhde.
