BASF and Plug Power have entered into a Cooperation Agreement to incorporate BASF's Purivate™ Pd15 DeOxo catalysts into Plug Power's hydrogen liquefaction plants globally. This partnership aims to enhance the market offerings of Plug Power's plants by improving their reliability and cost efficiency through efficient hydrogen purification solutions. BASF's DeOxo catalysts, particularly the Purivate™ Pd15 product, offer exceptional performance at low temperatures, reducing the need for expensive precious metals. In addition to these catalysts, Plug Power has also approved the use of BASF's adsorbents like Sorbead® Air for dehydration of electrolyzed hydrogen, further enhancing energy efficiency. The collaboration is primarily focused on hydrogen liquefaction plants with capacities of 30, 60, and 90 tons per day, with BASF demonstrating its reliability and capability through a rigorous technical qualification process. Both companies have expressed confidence in each other's expertise, with BASF highlighting its history in large-scale hydrogen purification units and Plug Power trusting BASF's experience in hydrogen purification. The goal of this partnership is to provide clients with proven and reliable solutions, ultimately enhancing the economic viability of liquid hydrogen plants.
