Thyssenkrupp Nucera gets chlor-alkali plant expansion contract in Saudi Arabia; acquires technology assets from Green Hydrogen Systems

German engineering corporation, Thyssenkrupp Nucera has obtained a new order in the field of chlor-alkali technology in Saudi Arabia.

Chemical Marketing and Distribution Company (CMDC) has commissioned Thyssenkrupp Nucera to enforce the next expansion phase of its chlor-alkali plant in Jubail Industrial City.

Thyssenkrupp Nucera will supply its membrane technology to CMDC, part of Basic Chemical Industries Company (BCI), Saudi Arabia’s largest private chemical enterprise.

The contract, valued at approximately €15-mn, covers the supply, delivery, and provision of equipment, spare parts, and engineering services for the enlargement. Using the latest ‘BM2.7’ single-element generation from Thyssenkrupp Nucera, chemical advantage from advanced energy efficiency and performance through innovative, energy-saving design elements.

The collaboration among BCI and Thyssenkrupp Nucera spans more than 10 years. In 2013, BCI signed its first contract with the predecessors of Thyssenkrupp Nucera for its Dammam chlor-alkali plant, accompanied by another in 2017 for the first phase of the Jubail venture. The plant produces caustic soda, sodium hypochlorite, hydrochloric acid, and liquid chlorine.

Technology acquisition

In some other unrelated growth, Thyssenkrupp Nucera, stated it has agreed to acquire main technology assets from Green Hydrogen Systems (GHS), a Danish corporation specialized in pressurized alkaline electrolysis. The asset deal includes intellectual property as well as the test facility with a widespread prototype in Skive, Denmark. Financial details of the deal were not disclosed.

Dr. Werner Ponikwar, CEO of Thyssenkrupp Nucera, stated, “The high-pressure electrolysis technology grows by Green Hydrogen Systems operates with high efficiency at as much as 35 bar – a key benefit for industrial programs in which hydrogen is typically needed in compressed form. In many cases, this eliminates the requirements for additional compression. Furthermore, the test facility provides us a good opportunity to boost up and intensify our own research and development activities in a highly practical environment.”

GHS has developed deep expertise in pressurized alkaline electrolysis. By producing hydrogen at higher pressures, the technology decrease or gets rid of the need for external com pression – making it ideally suited for applications which include pipeline injection, mobility infrastructure, and industrial synthesis techniques requiring com pressed hydrogen at the point of use. Field-proven by validation at the Skive facility, the technology will boost up Thyssenkrupp Nucera’s ongoing R&D into next-generation alkaline water electrolysis (AWE) solutions and help the development of a versatile technology base for clients.
