• Off-gas purification: HyProGen FCCB series – base and precious metal catalysts to remove traces of hydrogen from the off-gas and ensure zero-emission systems

Catalysts for stationary engines and gas turbines

EnviCat® catalysts for emission control include:

• EnviCat DOC (diesel oxidation catalysts and oxidation catalysts): oxidation of CO and hydrocarbons/VOCs including formaldehydein lean burn applications; EnviCat DOC with high sulfur tolerance and low conversion of SO2 to SO3
• EnviCat TWC (three-way catalysts): oxidation of CO, hydrocarbons and simultaneous reduction of NOx for stoichiometric engines
• EnviCat cDPF (catalyzed diesel particulate filters): catalyzed wall-flow filters for the efficient removal of particulate matter and the combustion of soot at low temperatures; CARB Level 3+ and TÜV Verification
• EnviCat SCR (selective catalytic reduction catalysts): reduction of NOx by ammonia or urea in a SCR system; low, medium and high temperature variants are available as well as ammonia slip catalysts

Catalysts for industrial applications

Süd-Chemie offers a variety of catalyst products for industrial applications:

• EnviCat VOC oxidation catalysts for the reduction of organic emissions in industrial applications: honeycomb and bulk catalysts for the combustion of solvent vapors, hydrocarbon streams and other non-desired organic matter from industrial plants
• EnviCat NOx blue/yellow/red line (SCR catalysts for NOx reduction and catalysts for selective NH3 oxidation): honeycomb and bulk SCR catalysts based on iron, copper or vanadia for temperature ranges from 200°C to 600°C
• EnviCat N2O (SCR for laughing gas reduction): iron-based bulk catalyst for N2O conversion in processes based on Uhde’s EnviNOx® technology

Süd-Chemie and Clariant: stronger together

As of 2 July 2012, Süd-Chemie will be merged into Clariant Produkte (Deutschland).

Süd-Chemie, a member of the Swiss Group owned by Clariant, Muttenz, is a speciality chemicals company headquartered in Munich, Germany, and operating on a worldwide scale.
