The SALCOS DRP 1 is a direct reduction iron plant developed by Salzgitter Flachstahl GmbH at the Salzgitter steelmaking site in Germany. The project involves the construction of a hydrogen-ready plant based on Energiron ZR technology, capable of producing over 2 million tonnes/year of DRI using natural gas and hydrogen in flexible proportions. Its objective is to progressively replace the traditional blast furnace–coal route with low-emission steel production through the DRP-EAF route, reducing CO₂ emissions and supporting the decarbonization of the steel industry.

LINEAR ALKYL BENZENE (LAB) is a Sonatrach petrochemical project for the construction of a new production plant in the Skikda industrial zone, Algeria, approximately 350 km east of Algiers. The facility will produce linear alkyl benzene (LAB) with an annual production capacity of 100,000 tonnes.

The Ceres Urea Plant, located on the coast of Western Australia, is a large onshore facility for the production of ammonia and urea from natural gas. Once completed, it will be the world’s largest gas-based ammonia and urea production plant. It uses local natural gas to produce fertilizers, integrating ammonia production, urea production, granulation, auxiliary services, port infrastructure and water supply facilities. The plant will include production areas, storage facilities and administrative functions. A 3.2 km conveyor belt will connect the plant to the port for the transport and loading of urea intended for export. The facility is designed to contribute to the target of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
