INEOS Technologies is a leading global licenser of polyolefin, polystyrene, nitriles, vinyls and chlor-alkali technologies. INEOS Technologies also supplies high quality catalysts, additives and coatings in support of these technologies. Our technologies are used across the globe both on INEOS own manufacturing sites and major multi-national companies.
INEOS Technologies is rich in its heritage, bringing together technologies from ICI, BP, Amoco and EVC. We strive to further develop these unique technologies by continuous improvement for the benefit of the industries we serve.
INEOS Technologies offers both gas phase and slurry polyethylene technology providing clients with an extensive range of product properties. We also offer a complete range of catalyst systems and technical support for polyethylene processes.
Our gas phase polypropylene technology has a unique plug flow technology resulting in low capital and operating costs. This technology is linked to our proprietary CD catalyst system, which has been developed to optimise process performance.
INEOS Technologies is the leading supplier of acrylonitrile catalysts and process plants. INEOS developed the acrylonitrile process and catalyst and has demonstrated it’s leadership position via technology and catalyst improvements over the past 40 years.
In the vinyls chain INEOS Technologies offers equipment and process designs from chlorine manufacture through to PVC. We offer a range of leading catalysts, additives and coatings in support of these technologies. Our chlor-alkali technology, BICHLOR™ is at the heart of a 420,000 mtpa chlorine plant owned by our sister company INEOS ChlorVinyls.
INEOS Technologies is also developing several exciting new technologies which will further enhance the product portfolio of the company.
A prime example is INEOS Bio, which is an exciting new business within INEOS Technologies. It was created on July 1st 2008 to commercialise a highly innovative technology platform for the production of clean biofuel and low-cost chemical intermediates from a wide range of low-cost carbon materials including household waste.
The primary focus of INEOS Bio is the commercialisation of the world's leading second generation bioethanol technology process to meet the needs of the global renewable transport fuels market. Commercial plants will efficiently convert a broad range of low-cost organic carbon materials, including the biodegradable portion of municipal wastes and organic commercial and industrial wastes into clean, renewable bioethanol fuel. The bioethanol produced will deliver substantial greenhouse gas savings compared to petrol or gasoline.
The INEOS Bio technology allows clean renewable fuel production to be de-coupled from food production in what we believe is a genuinely sustainable way. The technology will be extended in due course to manufacture advanced fuels and valuable chemical intermediates from a wider range of low-cost carbon materials.
The formation of INEOS Bio marks the entrance of INEOS Technologies into the fast growing renewable fuels and chemicals arenas, with a potentially world-changing technology.
Across INEOS Technologies our technology experts and commercial teams are highly experienced and respected across the globe to provide our clients with unsurpassed levels of service.
