KTS | A Koch Engineered Solutions Business

N2O Abatement Technology

Nitrous oxide (N₂O) abatement technology reduces greenhouse gas emissions from industrial processes such as nitric acid, adipic acid, and caprolactam production. By eliminating N₂O before release to atmosphere it transforms emissions helping industries meet environmental regulations and lower their carbon dioxide equivalent (CO₂e) emissions. This technology supports reduced emissions enabling cleaner, more sustainable production and strengthening corporate environmental responsibility.

Benefits

Over 75 million tons CO₂e annual abatement capacity installed worldwide

Backed by 25+ years of N₂O Abatement experience through in-house operations and licensing

Delivers > 99% N₂O abatement - field-demonstrated performance

Modular turnkey design – fast install with minimal disruption

Energy-efficient reactor technology engineered for low operating costs

Carbon credit market access enabled via partnerships across the Koch network

How It Works

Nitrous oxide contained in industrial off gases is removed by catalytic decomposition utilising KTS’s proprietary catalyst. The downstream gas can then be further treated or safely vented to atmosphere depending on plant configuration and operators emission goals.
