BASF's bioproduct acrylamide production plant has been put into operation in Nanjing Chemical Industrial Park, which produces more than 50,000 tons of acrylamide per year to ensure a stable supply of BASF to the Asia Pacific region, especially in China.
Acrylamide for the production of water-soluble flocculants, so that sewage treatment, paper and mineral processing and crude oil recovery to enhance the more efficient and more resource-saving 2014, BASF began in the United States, California, Suffolk production of biological propylene Amide; 2016, a new biological method of acrylamide plant in the United Kingdom Bradford put into operation.Nanjing project successfully put into operation, BASF has the world's major markets have three sets of the industry's most advanced production equipment. With the traditional high-pressure , High energy consumption copper catalyst compared to Nanjing this set of equipment using enzymatic biocatalytic process, resulting in a significant reduction in waste, the process can be carried out at room temperature and normal atmospheric conditions, help to save energy and improve environmental compatibility.
