Summary sheet
Haldor Topsøe A/S
The project concerns the promoter’s research, development, and innovation (RDI) activities for heterogeneous catalysts and the design and engineering of process plants based on catalytic processes for the fertiliser industry, the chemical and petrochemical industries, and the energy sector (refineries and power plants). The project will be implemented in the period 2008-2011.
The project should strengthen the market position of an EU-based mid-cap, providing catalysts and catalytic process solutions, i.a. for environmental applications, and systems for cleaning exhaust gas from diesel engines.
The R&D activities encompassed within this project will not materially change current R&D practices and will be carried out within existing facilities, making use of existing laboratories and pilot plants etc. An EIA therefore is not required by EU Directive 97/11 as amended by Directive 2003/35. Compliance of R&D activities with relevant EU environmental legislation will be verified during appraisal.
The promoter is a private company not operating in the Utilities sector, and is thus not covered by EU directives on procurement.
