Efficient processes are essential in chemical and petrochemical production. However, the industry is facing major challenges. These not only include cost pressure and overcapacity, but also high energy prices and the need to conserve resources. Chemical companies must also respond to new regulatory requirements or adapt their production processes, for example for intermediates and monomers, to renewable raw materials. New value chains are also necessary, for example when integrated refineries transition from production of traditional fuels to platform chemicals such as olefins and aromatics.
In the chemical and petrochemical industry, the response to this challenge often focuses on investing in new production processes or optimizing existing processes. A key factor in this regard is development and improvement of catalysts and catalytic processes. Yet finding a suitable catalyst requires a great deal of experimentation – which costs time and money. hte offers comprehensive laboratory-scale R&D workflows and helps chemical companies, integrated refineries, manufacturers of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals, catalyst providers, and EPC companies in the chemical and petrochemical industry save both time and money, while also expanding their testing capacities.
hte offers flexible laboratory systems that can be adapted to the respective research issue. Thanks to their high degree of parallelization, digitalization, and automation, these systems provide data quickly, which R&D teams can then use a basis for reaching decisions.
The modular design of hte’s laboratory systems facilitates integration of a wide range of analytical equipment that quickly provides detailed data and ensures excellent reproducibility of results.
hte has both the expertise and the required flexibility to quickly set up a wide range of chemical processes in its own laboratory environment or produce systems for this purpose. Our specialists have experience in handling challenging substances and complex reactions.
The automation of laboratory processes is a key element in the high-throughput synthesis of catalysts. With the support of hte, we were able to analyze existing workflows and identify numerous opportunities to accelerate the development and market introduction of new, innovative products. Jordan K. Lampert, Senior Research Manager bei BASF

The greatest advantage of using hte technology was the tremendous time savings during the project. By applying this methodology, we were able to achieve results in just a few months. Using conventional equipment, the process would normally have taken over two years. Jean-Luc Dubois, Scientific Director bei Arkema
