Ammonia cracking: key technology for the green transformation

Ammonia, the small molecule that became well-known in the 19th century through fertilizer production in agriculture, is now one of the most produced chemicals in the world. And it is becoming increasingly important - in future also as a transport medium for hydrogen. In the future, ammonia could play a key role in driving forward the green transformation of industry - as a transport medium for green hydrogen.

Green methanol – A raw material for sustainable aviation fuels

Air travel causes around 3.1 percent of global CO2 emissions and will continue to rise in the coming years. Researchers at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) even predict that air travel will increase by 3.5 % annually by 2040. So it's high time to develop alternative fuels, so-called Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF).

Green ammonia revolutionizes the transport of hydrogen

Green hydrogen is a promising and sustainable energy carrier. However, its transport is anything but energy efficient. We explain why transporting hydrogen by ship is not sustainable and why green ammonia is a good solution.

Boosting capacity, maximizing efficiency

When Safco/SABIC, one of the world’s leading ammonia and urea producers, saw an opportunity to increase production, they needed a solution that kept energy use steady, urea output unchanged, and downtime minimal. thyssenkrupp Uhde demonstrated its expertise in large-scale precision-led upgrades by scaling up the plant from 3,300 to 3,670 tpd with just a 70-day shutdown – delivering a flawless startup, optimized costs, and 4 million LTI-free manhours.

Powering Motorsport with Sustainable Fuels – NEOM, Saudi Arabia
Powering motorsport with sustainable fuels

E-fuel technology has the potential to cut emissions by 70 %. Aramco and ENOWA are pioneers in the field, building the first plant for synthetic e-fuels for motorsports. Using thyssenkrupp Uhde’s green methanol technology and ExxonMobil’s MtG technology, the plant will produce 35 barrels of low-carbon synthetic gasoline per day. Uhde ensures seamless project delivery, using a modular design and deliver a greener racing future.

Driving sustainability in Australia’s chemical sector

When Orica, the world’s largest provider of commercial explosives, was looking to reduce its emissions at Kooragang Island, they installed our EnviNOx® technology. The result was an elimination of nearly all nitrous oxide emissions, a reduction of site emissions by 45 % and of national chemical sector emissions by 11 %. After the retrofit was successfully done in 15 months, additional units for Orica were installed in Canada, Indonesia, and Australia.
