Different processes and applications pose tough challenges for air pollution control in this industry:

• Processing of natural gas and petrochemical substances for the production of polymerisation plastics (HDPE, LDPE, PP, PET, PS, ABS etc.)
• Production of derivatives (e.g. Ethylenoxide)
• Production of synthetic resin, varnishes, paints, composite materials
• Production of fine chemicals and basic chemical substances (MSA, PSA, urea, formaldehyde etc.)

CTP supplies this industry with mainly catalytic systems, regenerative thermal oxidisers (RTO) and adsorbers. As the flue gases in this industry are often explosive mixtures, CTP systems have to be completed with special safety conduits and filters to help reduce hazards during continued operation.
