Air Products jointly gathered with Huntsman for a groundbreaking ceremony at the site of what will be the Tier One company’s new steam methane reformer (SMR) and cold box in Louisiana.

Under a long-term agreement, Air Products will build, own and operate the facility, producing and supplying industrial gases including carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2) and steam to Huntsman’s neighbouring Geismar operations.

Located on land leased from Huntsman, a global manufacturer and marketer of differentiated and specialty chemicals, in Geismar, the facility will produce approximately 6.5 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) of CO, 50 MMSCFD of H2, and up to 50,000 pounds per hour of steam.
