LONDON, May 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Four Danish companies, Topsoe, Alfa Laval, Copenhagen Atomics and Aalborg CSP, have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the ammonia producer Pupuk Kaltim, together with Pertamina New & Renewable Energy, both of which are owned by the Indonesian state, about building a facility in Bontang that can produce one million tonnes of ultra-low emission ammonia per year. This is enough to produce fertiliser for the production of food for 45 million people, approx. one sixth of the Indonesian population.

Key Points: 
  • This is enough to produce fertiliser for the production of food for 45 million people, approx.
  • The plant will save the emission of 1.7 million tonnes CO2 per year compared to natural gas based fertiliser production.
  • The nuclear power plant will be 1GW, consisting of 25 SMRs and the entire plant must run for 50 years.
  • The company's innovative technologies enable energy efficient heat transfer technologies in everything from electrolysis cooling and generating the ultra-pure water for the electrolysis and power-to-X.
