BASF has opened the world's first production plant for 3D printed catalysts at its Ludwigshafen site in Germany. The X3D technology creates catalysts with optimised geometries that reduce pressure drop while increasing active surface area. One customer saved 100,000 USD per year in a sulfonation plant. https://www.3dnatives.com/en/basf-production-plant-3d-printed-catalysts-30032026/ #3Dprint #3Dprinting #BASF #Chemistry
