(CercleFinance.com) – BASF announces the extension of its collaboration with the University of Heidelberg (Germany) for a period of five years, i.e. until 2028. The partners jointly operate a Catalysis Research Laboratory (CaRLa) in the aim of developing new processes for homogeneous catalysis and organic synthesis.
‘Fundamental research in the field of homogeneous catalysis is important to BASF, because it helps us develop chemical processes that require less energy and generate less waste. CaRLa is therefore an important cornerstone for us to achieve BASF’s sustainability goals,’ said Dr. Helmut Winterling, President of Research of the BASF Group.
‘Since 2015, 18 projects have been transferred to BASF research, where they are developed for industrial applications. CaRLa therefore represents a successful collaboration between academic and industrial research,’ recalled the manager.
