Recent Developments

Feb 2022 - Ingevity is preparing to start producing caprolactone polyols at its DeRidder, Louisiana factory. It plans to enhance the global production capacity for the polyols sold under the Capa brand by 40%. Construction is anticipated to commence by summer, with operations beginning in the first quarter of 2022. Monomer storage capacity will be included in the project, which will help speed bulk shipments to customers in the United States. A ring-opening polymerization reaction is used in the production process. This enables the monomer to be derivatized into various polyols and thermoplastics with added value. Another investment in Capa, a Warrington, United Kingdom-based innovation center, should be operating by the end of the year. It will contain application development equipment and testing capabilities. The DeRidder factory modifications will better position Ingevity to meet rising global demand for Capa technologies while also improving the supply chain, reducing lead times, and improving overall service for clients worldwide.January 2021- Aqua Metals, Inc, a leading player who specializes in lead recycling with its AquaRefining technology, has announced that it has partnered with BASF SE, a German player, to supply electrolytes, cooperate commercially and explore technical improvements to enhance AquaRefining performance.
