We are continuously seeking ways to enhance the sustainability of our production processes. In line with this commitment, we plan to invest €700 million in Next Generation Technologies by 2023. These investments will focus on improving our production plants and infrastructure to further reduce our CO2 emissions.
Evonik Expands Global Alkoxides Business With New Singapore Plant
This new investment is sustainability-driven as alkoxide catalysts will also play a bigger role in circular economy through their use in the chemical recycling of PET plastics in the future. Furthermore, the new plant will be a modern facility with state-of-the-art technology aiming for zero scope 1&2 carbon emissions.
Evonik Expands Production Capacity for DL-Methionine in Singapore
The expanded plant reduces the carbon footprint of the entire methioinine production in Singapore by six percent, by implementing an electrolysis unit for green hydrogen supply amongst various energy integration measures.
New Cooperation Enables Evonik To Provide Tire Industry with Silica Made Prom Biobased Raw Materials
Evonik is now able to supply sustainably precipitated ULTRASIL® silica to tire manufactures. We use sodium silicate derived from rice husk ash (RHA), which is produced exclusively with biomass energy sources. This enables Evonik to deliver a CO2 footprint reduction of 30% compared to its standard silica.
