What are the key performance benefits of Clariant's FAMAX catalyst in Yihua's formaldehyde plants, according to the news?

Clariant's FAMAX catalyst delivers three core benefits in Yihua's formaldehyde plants: (1) it reduces process pressure drop by 10%–15% due to its unique shape design; (2) its advanced chemical formulation enhances low-temperature catalytic activity, improves formaldehyde yield and selectivity, minimizes by-products, and extends catalyst service life; and (3) it enables significant energy savings, increased plant capacity, and optimized formaldehyde product quality.

How does Clariant's EnviCat emission control catalyst support environmental and operational performance at Yihua's facilities?

Clariant's EnviCat catalyst is deployed in the tail gas treatment units of both Yihua formaldehyde plants, achieving over 99% conversion efficiency for harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs); it operates effectively at low temperatures (400°C), thereby substantially reducing fuel consumption, lowering equipment operating load, and delivering measurable economic, operational, and safety benefits.
