Applications

Catalysts are a key enabling technology in the chemical industry and used in a wide range of applications.

Catalysts are key to future innovation.  They are widely used today for emissions reduction for volatile organic compounds, SO₂, NO_X.  They are crucial to reduce future environmental burdens, achieve lower limits, make products greener and more sustainable and to reduce CO₂ emissions or to address future energy challenges.
