Heesung Catalysts visited \u300cGastech 2026\u300d, held in Bangkok, Thailand, from September 14 to 17. CEO Hyun-sik Han and Business Division Head Dock-Ho (Derek) Choi attended the event, where they met with KBR and other global companies and project partners to exchange views on key developments in the energy industry, including ammonia and hydrogen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gastech is a major international exhibition and conference covering key technologies and issues across the global energy industry, including natural gas, LNG, hydrogen, and low-carbon solutions. At this year\u2019s event, ammonia was among the key topics of discussion, with particular attention given to its potential as an energy carrier and its role in the hydrogen economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ammonia Gains Attention as an Energy Carrier<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ammonia plays an essential role in global food production today through its use in fertilizer manufacturing. More recently, beyond its conventional industrial applications, ammonia has also been gaining attention for its potential as an energy carrier for the storage and transportation of hydrogen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the use of hydrogen continues to expand, efficient methods for its storage and transportation are becoming increasingly important. Ammonia is being considered as one potential means of transporting and storing hydrogen, driving growing interest in ammonia cracking technology, which converts ammonia back into hydrogen when needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ammonia cracking is a process that decomposes ammonia to produce hydrogen and can play an important role in enabling ammonia to serve as an energy carrier and ultimately supply hydrogen for end use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u300cSUSO\u300d Ammonia Cracking Project<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Against this backdrop, collaboration among partners and progress on the SUSO Ammonia Cracking Project were also highlighted at Gastech 2026. KBR shared the progress made together with ISU Chemical and other project partners, noting that the ongoing collaboration and momentum surrounding the project demonstrate the growing role ammonia can play in supporting the hydrogen economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heesung Catalysts is a partner in the SUSO Ammonia Cracking Project. At Gastech, the company met with KBR and other project stakeholders to discuss the project\u2019s progress as well as industry and technology developments in the ammonia and hydrogen sectors. CEO Hyun-sik Han and Business Division Head Dock-Ho Choi also met directly with global partners to reaffirm ongoing collaboration and discuss the potential of technologies that use ammonia as an energy carrier to enable hydrogen supply, as well as opportunities for future cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continuing Collaboration with Global Partners<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Through its visit to Gastech 2026, Heesung Catalysts gained further insight into the rapidly evolving global energy landscape while engaging with KBR, other companies, and project stakeholders on developments in the ammonia and hydrogen sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With global interest in ammonia and related technologies continuing to grow, the event provided a valuable opportunity to gain firsthand insight into industry developments and continue engagement with global partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heesung Catalysts will continue to communicate and collaborate with global companies and project partners while exploring new opportunities for cooperation in ammonia cracking, hydrogen, and the broader energy sector.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6068,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-6069","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hscatalysts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/6069","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hscatalysts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hscatalysts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hscatalysts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6068"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hscatalysts.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6069"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
