Successful conclusion of joint venture: ThyssenKrupp Uhde Chlorine Engineers starts business operations
The joint venture between plant engineering and construction specialist ThyssenKrupp Industrial Solutions and electrochemical technologies supplier De Nora was concluded successfully on April 1st, 2015. It will trade under the name ThyssenKrupp Uhde Chlorine Engineers and is operational with immediate effect. The new company combines the electrolysis business of the two companies under the managerial control of ThyssenKrupp Industrial Solutions, the majority shareholder, and will be consolidated in the group. The plan to create a joint venture had been announced in November 2013 but was subject to approval by the supervisory bodies and the relevant antitrust authorities.
An increased global presence will be achieved by combining and harmonizing the worldwide capabilities for engineering, procurement and construction of electrolysis plants as well as technical support and sales. The new global setup will be rolled out during the next months. The company is headquartered in Dortmund and its main entities are based in Okayama, Tokyo, Shanghai, Milan and Houston.
ThyssenKrupp Uhde Chlorine Engineers will continue all existing electrolysis processes of the two companies, including, for example, the filter press-based BiTAC® process from Chlorine Engineers, all generations of single-element technology developed by UHDENORA/Uhde and the HCl ODC and NaCl ODC technologies.
