Praxair, Inc. has secured a long-term contract to supply multinational chemical corporation the Dow Chemical Company (Dow) with both hydrogen (H2) and nitrogen (N2) in the US Gulf Coast.

As part of the contract, the US industrial gas giant has started up a new H2 facility which will recover by-product streams from Dow’s Freeport, Texas, operations. Praxair will supply high-purity H2 back to Dow in order to meet the company’s needs across Southeast Texas.
