Kinetics Process Improvements, Inc. (KPI) evaluates deep decarbonisation pathways for a new build ammonia plant of 3,500 tonnes/day on the US Gulf Coast. Eight technology configurations are compared with results providing a framework for technology selection, balancing emissions reduction, process integration, and indicative economics.
Toyo Engineering Corporation, Stamicarbon and Saipem showcase their state-of-the-art urea technologies.
Global demand for methanol is set to increase fivefold by 2050, driven by decarbonisation in shipping and other hard-to-abate sectors. Geir Arne Johansen and Hallgeir Angel of Air Products Membrane Solutions discuss how membrane technology offers a proven, scalable solution to improve efficiency, reduce emissions, and enable compliance across both traditional and low-carbon methanol pathways.
Christof Group SBN is actively integrating advanced manufacturing solutions such as wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) into its portfolio for the manufacture of high-pressure equipment in urea and ammonia plants. WAAM technology is especially suitable for niche materials customised for high corrosion resistance to carbamate solution and addresses the need for fast and tailored manufacturing of spare parts explain Aleksandra Gavrilovic-Wohlmuther and Serhiy Budnyk of Christof Group SBN.
The convection section of a syngas reformer is vulnerable to creep, corrosion, erosion, fretting and fouling which can cause deformation, local metal loss and failures that risk plant shutdown. Inspection access is limited, but solutions are available. Quest Integrity discusses life management of the reformer convection section to reduce unplanned outages.
Fluor explores the versatile potential of oxygen enrichment for various revamp and debottlenecking opportunities.
QMax Industries explains why effective steam and condensate management is essential to the performance, safety, and reliability of sulphur recovery units.
CS Combustion Solutions introduces the SR-P sulphur atomiser nozzle to the sulphuric acid process, combining the high-quality atomisation of ultrasonic systems with the affordability and simplicity of pressure atomisers.
SulGas® KL, South-East Asia’s sulphur recovery and gas treating conference organised by Three Ten Initiative Technologies LLP, made its debut from 2-3 July 2025, at Impiana KLCC, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Advanced SRUs and decarbonisation technologies position LNG for net-zero goals by 2050. Mahin Rameshni and Stephen Santo of RATE USA review sulphur management strategies for LNG, from ppm-level H2 S scavenging and non-conventional liquid redox to Claus SRUs, and introduces RATE’s patented technologies to achieve >99.9% recovery, operational stability, and decarbonisation alignment amid regulatory and market challenges.
