This was the fall out of a stakeholders’ meeting on the commercialisation of Zeolite Y Catalyst, held at the PTDF Auditorium in Abuja.
The PTDF, through its research intervention, pioneered the local production of a catalyst for crude oil refining.
The research work under the auspices of PTDF chair endowment at the Department of Chemical Engineering, Ahmadu Bello University has been patented and up-scaled to a pilot plant level.
This would make it possible for Nigerian refineries to obtain their catalyst locally for refining processes.
