Methane pyrolysis test facility – Activities in the facility

The successful production of hydrogen and high-purity carbon in the test plant and the subsequent commercial implementation of the process in a pilot plant would represent a breakthrough not only for the research team at BASF. The new production process could also be an important element of a process to reduce CO2 in the production of basic chemicals, such as ammonia and methanol, throughout the entire chemical industry.

For projects like these, there is a very long journey from the initial idea to the realization of said idea, and the expertise of the entire project team is required for the construction and operation of the test plant.
