Value added products, such as the reduction of oxalic acid to glyoxylic acid, are nowadays developed at an industrial scale (BASF—Badische Anilin und Soda-Fabriken). This process uses non-precious metals such as lead. This electrode material reduces carbon dioxide to formic acid in an aqueous medium and to oxalic acid in an organic solvent. This approach can be used to develop environmentally friendly value added products from abundant anthropogenic carbon dioxide. 

Acetic add has been produced by the carbonylation of methanol for a very long time, with the earliest industrial development dating back to 1925 (British Celanese. BASF Badische Anilin und Soda Fabrik J, and is based on the use of catalysts containing phosphoric add and copper phosphate. The development of cobait/iodine systems led to... 

The foremost licensors of these processes and of palladium catalysts are Amoco (American Oil Co., BASF (Badische Anilin und Soda Fabrik), Bayer-lurgi, Engelhard (HPN), IFP, Lummus (DPG Hydrotreating), Mitsubishi, UOP (Universal Oil Products) etc. The industrial unit scheme is substantially the same as for selective hydrogenation in the presence of nickel. However, the technology selected by Bayer differs in so far as the feedstock is cooled and the temperature maintained at the desired level by means of a refrigerant fluid or water.

Once the structure of indigo was established in 1870, it was quite logical to attempt its synthesis, not only as an intellectual challenge, but also as a profitable source of cheaper indigo that could advantageously compete with the natural dyestuff. The first industrial synthesis used by "Badische Anilin und Soda Fabrik" (BASF) was the procedure developed by Karl Neumann, which utilised the reaction of aniline with chloroacetic acid and then cyclisation of the resulting product to indoxyl promoted by NaNHj at high temperatures (over 200 °C). However, the... 

One of these companies was Badische Anilin und Soda Fabrik or BASF (translated as Baden-Baden Aniline and Soda Ash Company) in the town of Ludwigshaven in the Rhine valley of Germany, which combined the synthesis of anihne dyes and alkalis in early products and in their name. 

In 1920 German scientist Hermann Staudinger published his theories on polyaddition polymerization, the formation of long-chain molecules. (Previously, the manner in which long-chain molecules were formed was unexplained.) Nine years later, in a publication that detailed the polymerization of styrene, this method of chain formation would be laid out. During this time period Staudinger developed polystyrene into a commercial product. A division of the German chemical company IG Earben, known as Badische Anilin- und Soda-Fabrik, or BASF, produced polystyrene in 1930. The Dow Chemical Company introduced the American public to polystyrene in 1937. 

The breakthrough came from an unexpected side of the scientific field the dye industry. In 1865, Friedrich Engel-hom (1821-1902) founded Badische Anilin und Soda-Fabrik AG (BASF). The company produced coal tar dyes and precursors, gaining a leading position in the world dye... 

In 1910 Badische Aniline und Soda-Fabrik Aktien-Gesellschaft (BASF) [la] obtained a patent on the product (polysulfone) obtained by the action of sunlight on a solution of ethylene in sulfur dioxide in a sealed tube. The same patent... 

Stuttgart these companies later became part of the Badische Anilin- und Soda-fabrik (BASF), In 1860, the dyestuff merchant Friedrich Bayer set up a fuchsin factory in Elberfeld. In 1863, Meister, Lucius and Bruning also began the production of fuchsin in Hochst (Hoechst). 

An important discovery during this period was the fact that steel is immune to attack by dry chlorine [7]. This permitted the first commercial production and distribution of dry liquid chlorine by Badische Anilin-und-Soda Fabrik (BASF) of Germany in 1888 [8,9]. This technology, using H2SO4 for drying followed by compression of the gas and condensation by cooling, is much the same as is currently practiced. 

Phenylamine (aniline) was the chemical that generated the artificial dye industry. The traditional name of the compound lives on in the name of the world s biggest industrial chemistry company, BASF. The initials originally stood for Badische Anilin- und Soda-Fabrik in German, though they are now a registered trademark in their own right. 

The estimated annual world production of L-lysine is around 500,000 t, almost all supplied by Ajinomoto, Kyowa Hakko Kogyou, Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), and Badische Anilin-und Soda-Fabrik (BASF). t-Lysine (an essential amino acid for swine and poultry) is useful as an additive to feeds such as grains and defatted soybeans, which contain less lysine. 

The process was developed further by other groups, such as Badische Anilin und Soda Fabrik (BASF) of Germany, later in collaboration with Haber. It was...
