thyssenkrupp Uhde has been awarded a front-end engineering design study by an affiliate of CF Industries Holdings for a proposed new urea liquor upgrade plant at CF Industries' Courtright facility in Ontario, Canada.
Subject to a positive final investment decision, the project could add more than 400,000 short tons per year of diesel exhaust fluid capacity, according to CF Industries.
Nadja Håkansson, CEO of thyssenkrupp Uhde, said the project could enable greater utilization of existing CO2 resources, strengthening production capacity while creating additional value from existing assets.
CF Industries operates one of North America's largest ammonia production networks and continues to invest in projects to strengthen its production platform.
The award reinforces thyssenkrupp Uhde's position as a partner for the fertilizer and chemicals industries.
