Johnson Matthey PLC Two Day Workshop - GRBEMP IIT Delhi Jamie Conway-Baker Amit Bansal Agenda • Johnson Matthey introduction • Technological Solutions in Water 2 Overview A speciality chemicals company and a world leader in advanced materials technology Origins date back to 1817, floated 1942, FTSE 100 company since June 2002 Market capitalization of approximately £4.0 billion £10 billion revenue and underlying profit before tax* of £345 million for year ended 31st March 2011 (+ 36 %) Operations in over 30 countries with 9,000 employees Leading global market positions in all its major businesses Continued high investment in R&D and manufacturing technology to maintain leadership positions (over £100 M) 3 Divisional Structure Johnson Matthey Environmental Technologies Precious Metal Products Fine Chemicals Emission Control Technologies Platinum Marketing and Distribution Macfarlan Smith Process Technologies Noble Metals Fuel Cells Colour Technologies Pharmaceutical Materials and Services Catalysts, Chemicals and Refining Research Chemicals 4 Research into Water • A market leader in emission control and purification technologies – now investigating extending capabilities into water • JM have a number of products related to water and significant R&D capabilities in catalysis, scavengers and electrochemistry • Understanding the unmet needs and issues industry face, will help develop effective solutions • JM capabilities likely to be effective in the high technology sector of water treatment Technological Solutions Catalytic Processes •Operate at lower energy •Consume less reagents •Have faster reaction kinetics •Generate no secondary wastes •Are sustainable – catalysts can be recycled Catalytic Advanced Oxidation •Destroys recalcitrant organics (phenols/dyes) •Consumes less oxidant •Has a small footprint •Can meet zero discharge requirements Other Areas of Development •Selective scavengers and absorbents for removal of metals to ultralow levels •Enhancement of Insitu disinfection (biocide generation, Ozone, UV) •Enhancement of Energy generation from waste Applications today •Replace bioremediation? No! •Enhance established technologies? Yes! •Offer a cost effective, sustainable solution to streams which are not suitable to bio remediation? Yes ! Any Questions? 7
