Green Chemistries for sustainable and Green Industries
ADDCON develops and manufactures sustainable product solutions for different industries.
Due to the increasing importance of environmental aspects and shrinking resources there is an increasing demand of the industry for product solutions with a better environmental balance.
The sustainable products of ADDCON comply not only with environmental aspects but follow a comprehensive approach that includes besides environmental issues efficacy- and cost aspects.
The refrigerant HYCOOL developed and produced by ADDCON is based on potassium formate and does not emit any greenhouse gases, is biodegradable and non-toxic. At the same time HYCOOL enables, thanks to its low viscosity and high heat transfer capacity, efficient refrigeration processes that save up to 20 % energy and money.
Drilling Fluids from ADDCON for the oil industry also comply with these highest requirements on sustainability. They enable efficient and state of the art drilling processes without threatening the environment because drilling fluids from ADDCON are non-toxic for animals, plants and water organisms and are biodegradable.
Other products from ADDCON are pure potassium formate as well as liquid potassium formate for different industrial applications. The use of these non-toxic ingredients enables the production of fire retardant construction materials and more rapidly hardening concrete. Additional to this these products protect from micro-organism formation (mold) and the use during tanning processes enables bright colours of the end products.
