Organization profile
The main mission of the Center for Refining & Advanced Chemicals (CRAC) is to develop catalytic technologies for the production of clean fuels, petrochemicals, and polymers. The Center aims to maximize value of crude oil by converting to high-demand chemical products at the interface of catalytic chemistry and reaction engineering. CRAC has over three decades of R&D-business experience related to downstream industry. It provides technical support to the downstream industry via catalyst screening, selection and generate reactor models at molecular level.
