Manufacturing of
Catalysts & Adsorbents
Adsorbents:
- Retention/capture of pollutants: H2S, Cl, Hg, As
- Gas purification and treatment of pollutants
Catalysts:
- Speed up reactions and reduce energy consumption
- Used for refining and purifying of hydrocarbons, gas, plastics and biofuels

Products that
Limit the Environmental Impact
- Fuels: 40% of consumption of low-sulphur gasoline and 15% of low-sulphur diesel fuel (<50ppm) made with our catalysts, representing a cumulative production of 15.0 Mb/day.
- Capturing of Sulfur: 50Mt of SO2 have not been issued in the atmosphere in 2016 thanks to Claus units loaded with an Axens catalyst. If it had not been captured, the annual global SO2 emissions (from all sectors) would have been approximately 50% higher.
- Mercury capture: 2,500t mercury traps sold in 3 years on 3 units of natural gas (1 in Russia, 2 in Australia).
