UOP's molecular sieves (zeolite 3A, 4A, 5A) dehydrate ethanol to fuel-grade anhydrous ethanol. Our Parex process separates para-xylene from mixed C8 aromatics using simulated moving bed chromatography. Adsorption chemistry at refinery scale.

SNF's polyacrylamide flocculants clarify drinking water for 1B+ people — charged polymers bridge suspended particles into settleable flocs. The same molecules thicken agricultural soils and enhance oil recovery.

Stora Enso's Lineo lignin products replace phenol in resins and adhesives — recovering the polymer that binds wood into a renewable chemical feedstock. One of the world's oldest companies now leading bio-based material innovation.
