2021 hackathon BASF lights up the future chemical star

Promoting scientific and technological progress and promoting chemical innovation not only require long-term accumulation, but also inevitable bursts of inspiration

The “low-carbon green oil” team of China University of Petroleum tutored by BASF finally won the second prize for its innovative ideas, high market feasibility and good economic efficiency

This year's hackers are tightly linked to the national dual-carbon goals, and the topic of designing circular economy solutions that can calculate carbon reduction results in terms of "clothing", "housing", "travel" and "use" in life has attracted many people across the country.

Introduction to China University of Petroleum (Beijing) "Low Carbon Green Oil" Project

Through years of technological breakthroughs made in the field of hydroformylation reaction catalysis, the participating topics will empower the traditional gasoline post-processing process, so that the FCC gasoline produced by the refining unit can not only be used as a chemical raw material to enhance the value of the society in the process of serving the society, but also It can reduce the carbon footprint of gasoline with high olefin content in the short life cycle by "eating" the carbon dioxide imported from the outside

As a corporate mentor, Yufeng Chen, the technical incubation manager of BASF Chemical Catalysts and Adsorbents Asia Pacific, not only helped the "low-carbon green oil" team carefully counsel the program, but also shared with the students the rapid changes in the petrochemical industry, broadened their horizons and ideas, and gave The courage of shabby *** enlighten the thinking of circular economy

Chen Yufeng, Technical Incubator Manager of BASF Chemical Catalysts and Adsorbents Asia Pacific, said: “ Only dreams can change reality and take us to the sea of ​​stars

Han Wei, Global Vice President of BASF’s Shanghai Innovation Park, said: “BASF believes that chemical innovation can promote the sustainable development of society and help climate protection

The College Student Chemical Creative Design Challenge (Hackathon) is the first industry-based college student hackathon in China’s petroleum and chemical industry.
