UNICAT partners with international specialist

The production of high-purity hydrogen through pressure swing adsorption (PSA) gas separation systems is essential for many industrial processes, and also the global shift towards using cleaner energy.

UNICAT Technologies, based in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, UK, is part of the same group as UNICAT Catalyst Technologies, a leading global supplier of catalyst products and related services in the refining, chemical, steel, agricultural and green energy industries.

Now, following the establishment of a new exclusive partnership with an Asian-based PSA specialist, it is able to offer a ‘complete solution’ for the gas separation technology, which uses adsorbent materials to capture specific gases under pressure.

This Asian-based specialist boasts 30 years of experience and has installed 80 PSA plants, featuring technologies including gas purification and carbon recovery systems, specifically hydrogen PSA and carbon capture. It means the business is able to design and build highly-efficient PSA systems, which, with the use of its adsorbents, can help industrial businesses improve hydrogen production and lower their energy costs, bringing huge efficiency improvements and savings to processes.

Mark Godfrey, Commercial Director of UNICAT Technologies, said: “This is a huge step forward in our offering of PSA systems, as we can now provide a comprehensive solution, from the design and build of the very best systems to using our world-leading adsorbents, all supported by innovative control systems and our comprehensive engineering services.

“The partnership has added world-leading expertise in designing and building PSA plants to our existing capabilities, enabling us to offer these advanced solutions globally.

“Our continued investment into research, innovation and development of plants has led to significant improvements in hydrogen recovery, production and purification in recent years, by utilising advanced adsorbents and optimising control systems.

“These innovations stem from our commitment to continuous improvement, addressing industry challenges, and reinvesting in catalyst and process technologies to support hydrocarbon processors.

“However, UNICAT’s innovations are not only the result of internal expertise but also strategic partnerships with customers, working together to improve customer sustainability, efficiency and profitability.”
