Hydrocarbon Processing


70 years of steam reduction

This timeline highlights key milestones in the development of styrene catalysts and StyroMax technology:

- **1950s**: Clariant launches styrene catalysts.
- **1973**: New chromium-free styrene catalysts reduce health and environmental hazards.
- **1989**: New rib-shaped styrene catalysts boost selectivity.
- **1990s**: Major advances in StyroMax catalyst activity and selectivity.
- **2019**: StyroMax UL3 successfully completes cycle at steam consumption as low as 1.35 MT steam per MT styrene.
- **2021**: StyroMax UL series catalyst marks its 60th commercial reference.
- **2025**: Launch of StyroMax UL-100.

The timeline also notes a reduction in steam consumption from 5 MT to under 1.35 MT per ton of styrene monomer produced.
