BASF offers a broad spectrum of catalysts, including:
Heterogeneous catalysts: These are solid catalysts used in gas or liquid-phase reactions. They play a crucial role in refining processes, petrochemical production, and environmental applications such as automotive exhaust treatment. Homogeneous catalysts: These catalysts are in the same phase as the reactants, typically used in liquid-phase reactions. They are essential in fine chemical production and pharmaceuticals. Enzyme catalysts: These biological catalysts are used in food processing, biofuels, and pharmaceuticals. BASF's enzyme catalysts offer high specificity and efficiency.
