BASF to supply hydrogen-based ammonia to OCI’s Geleen fertiliser plant

BASF and OCI Global have agreed for the first deliveries of renewable ammonia produced at BASF’s site in Ludwigshafen in order to produce low-carbon fertilizers at OCI’s site in Geleen. This initiative expands OCI’s low-carbon portfolio and introduces the “Pure” product line, delivering the same fertilizer quality at a substantially reduced carbon footprint without compromising on performance. BASF says that its renewable ammonia is certified according to ISCC PLUS and is produced using a mass balance approach, through which renewable energy-derived hydrogen is attributed to the renewable ammonia grades.
