Chemical Catalysts

BASF is the Global Leader in Chemical Catalysts. We are dedicated to catalyst chemistry. Our global catalyst R&D and catalyst technical service staff provide immediate, local attention to customer catalyst needs. We offer precious metals supply and full-loop management services, including refining to recover precious metals from spent catalysts. We are committed to work diligently with you to understand your catalyst needs and translate them into the right catalyst for your process.

We start by working with you to determine the right catalyst solution for your applications. This may range from an off-the-shelf chemical catalyst to a proprietary catalyst tailored for your application or even a joint development program undertaken with you to develop a catalyst unique to your needs and exclusive to your use.

Die Metallsalzlösung strömt durch die Einlaufstelle in das Fällgefäß und verteilt sich in dem Lösungsmittel. Katalysatoren kommen bei den meisten chemischen Prozessen zum Einsatz. Innovationen in der chemischen Industrie werden hauptsächlich durch Katalysatorenforschung und -entwicklung vorangetrieben. Die BASF setzt Katalysatoren in mehr als 80% der eigenen Produktionsstätten ein.

Finally, we offer custom catalyst manufacturing services, freeing you to focus on your core business.
