APPLICATION FIELDS

Proven in Practice.

From power generation to process industries and mobile applications on sea and land, Ceram Austria delivers technologically mature solutions for emission control and energy efficiency in industries where reliability and precision are critical. Our ceramic catalysts and heat storage systems are deployed worldwide and have proven themselves in over 200 international projects under real and often extreme operating conditions.

Rugged catalysts for gas engine and gas turbine systems, even under varying load profiles and increasingly stringent emission requirements

POWER GENERATION

The catalyst behind data center computing power

Our catalysts are the proven solution for reliable power supply to data centers using gas turbines and gas engines. Our products are the foundation for reliable compliance with statutory emission regulations and thus for operating permits. Our catalysts ensure highly efficient, long-lasting, and economically optimal operation of gas engine and gas turbine plants in over 200 international projects. Especially in emergency power supply for data centers, where short response times and absolute operational reliability are top priorities, our solutions convince through their robustness against changing load profiles and increasing emission requirements.

SCR catalysts that reliably degrade dioxins and furans, even with fluctuating fuel compositions

WASTE INCINERATION & BIOMASS

High performance under difficult exhaust gas conditions

Our SCR catalysts for biomass and waste incineration plants are optimized for high conversion rates at low and varying temperature conditions and exhaust gas compositions. Ceram has numerous references in the thermal treatment of municipal solid waste, hazardous and medical waste, refuse-derived fuels (RDF), and waste-derived biomass. Our catalysts reduce NOx at low temperatures and reliably break down dioxins and furans. By deploying our solutions, plant operators permanently comply with the strictest emission limits even with fluctuating fuel compositions. As market leaders, we set the standards worldwide for the best price-performance ratio in plant construction.

Ceram honeycomb technology for RTO systems in the cement industry, paint and coating facilities, and the semiconductor and chemical industries

PROCESS INDUSTRY

Heat storage solution for efficient RTOs

Ceram has been developing and manufacturing high-quality ceramic heat storage systems for RTO plants for more than 20 years, in which harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are thermally destroyed. Thermal oxidation operates at high efficiency, ideally without the use of auxiliary fuel. Our honeycomb technology is based on decades of materials research and production experience. From the cement industry to coating and painting plants to the semiconductor and chemical industries, we deliver the right heat storage systems for every application. Operators benefit from our experience in engineering, delivery, and service for virtually any plant size.

Catalysts for FCC units, ethylene crackers, and refinery processes; stable conversion and consistent compliance with strict emission limits

CHEMISTRY & PETROCHEMISTRY

Uncompromising reliability in operation

Conditions for chemical and petrochemical processes are rarely constant and demand uncompromising performance over the entire catalyst lifespan. Unplanned disruptions or shutdowns are not an option, which is why customers trust the robustness and quality of Ceram catalysts. In FCC units, ethylene crackers, and refinery processes, temperature and pollutant profiles can change according to operating parameters. Our catalysts are engineered to ensure stable conversion rates, proven long-term stability, and permanent compliance with strict emission limits even under these variable conditions.

SCR and ASC catalysts for marine, off-road, and stationary engines—reliable under varying conditions and in tight installation spaces

MOBILE APPLICATIONS

Reliable under changing conditions and limited installation space

Engines operate under changing operating conditions and installation space for marine and mobile applications is usually limited. Ceram's SCR and ASC (Ammonia Slip Catalyst) solutions enable compliance with strict emission limits for ships, off-road, and stationary engines (IMO Tier III and EU STAGE V) while ensuring long service life. Our product portfolio for round catalysts is used for diesel and gas engines and will increasingly be deployed for alternative fuels in the future. As a long-standing development partner, we support manufacturers and operators from technical engineering through certification to ongoing operation.
