The HPPO technology (Hydrogen Peroxide to Propylene Oxide), developed jointly by Evonik and ThyssenKrupp Industrial Solutions, is an outstanding example of innovation delivering high performance. The HPPO process produces propylene oxide from hydrogen peroxide and propylene with the help of a catalyst from Evonik. The advantage of this innovative process is that the investment is extremely low and therefore more economical than the traditional production process of propylene oxide. The HPPO process is also environmentally friendly. The process yields high yields and does not produce large amounts of by-products other than water.
