Petrochemicals our solutions IFPEN’s research is aimed at developing new innovative and eco-efficient catalysts, adsorbents and petrochemical intermediate production processes, and improving the performance of existing technologies, while increasing the purity of the products obtained and consuming less energy. OLEFIN PRODUCTION In the field of olefin intermediates (ethylene, propylene, butadiene

PETROCHEMICALS OVERVIEW AND CHALLENGES Petrochemical processes are designed to convert oil and natural gas cuts into base chemicals (the major intermediates) for the chemicals industry, such as olefins and aromatics. These compounds are subsequently used to manufacture chemicals used in a number of fields: plastics processing, pharmacy, agriculture, cosmetics, electronics

Against the backdrop of the accelerating energy transition, the oil industry and related sectors need to continue to meet sustained demand, while significantly reducing their environmental footprint and energy consumption. IFPEN develops eco-efficient and flexible processes for the production of fuel and chemical intermediates meeting the strictest standards. To make

Fuels Our strengths Recognized expertise in the field of catalysis Integration in a public-private partnership ecosystem via the Axel’One collaborative innovation platform The acceleration in product development thanks to IFPEN’s high-throughput experimentation (HTE) units, making it possible to test several catalysts in a variety of operating conditions with different feeds

Fuels Our solutions Summary: - Gasoline production and purification - Distillate production and purification - Heavy feed conversion processes - Fuel formulation Gasoline production and purification IFPEN develops eco-efficient technological solutions to: • purify gasoline cuts and adapt them to regional challenges • foster the coupling of refining with petrochemicals

Fuels OVERVIEW AND CHALLENGES The fuel sector today is marked by profound changes and accelerating societal trends such as: commitments made by signatory countries to the Paris agreement concerning the reduction of GGEs, the drive to improve air quality, the emergence of soft transport modes, the quest to find substitutes

Gas treatment OVERVIEW AND CHALLENGES The development of ever more efficient gas treatment technologies is supported by: the increase in gas consumption through to 2040 despite a slowdown resulting from the global Covid-19 pandemic, (+ 1.2%/year to 2040*) Its contribution to the energy mix to the tune of 25% in

Gas treatment Our solutions IFPEN’s objective is to propose more efficient processes in order to minimize investment and operating costs. The challenge is to be able to offer a global package, including the solvent and its process, as well as column packings and adsorbents. Mercury removal from natural gas Today
