From fossil to renewable hydrogen and … 

Certified renewable raw materials replace fossil resources at beginning of production process

BASF applies a biomass balance approach to replace fossil hydrogen in the production process with certified renewable-energy-derived hydrogen as raw material which is attributed to the product.

The mass balanced products are certified according to ISCC (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification) PLUS standards.

Renewable electricity used to further reduce production-related emissions

In addition, BASF is using electricity from renewable sources for the manufacturing of the ammonia products, further reducing their production-related emissions.

These measures reduce the product carbon footprint (PCF) of these products close to zero without compromising on quality and performance.

Seit über 100 Jahren ein unverzichtbarer Bestandteil des Produktionsverbundes: die Ammoniakanlagen. BASF betreibt Ammoniakanlagen mit einer Gesamtkapazität von über 1,7 Millionen Tonnen in Ludwigshafen, Antwerpen und gemeinsam mit YARA in Freeport, Texas. Ammoniak ist ein wesentlicher Ausgangsstoff für Polyamide, Isocyanate und Harnstoffharze.Ermöglicht wurde die Ammoniaksynthese erst im 20. Jahrhundert durch das Haber-Bosch-Verfahren. Fritz Haber und Carl Bosch wurden dafür mit dem Nobelpreis für Chemie ausgezeichnet. Der auszubildende Chemikant Sven Dockendorfer öffnet einen Schieber der Ammoniakanlage.
