The Pechiney-Ugine-Kuhlmann process is a process for the industrial production of hydrazine through the oxidation of ammonia with hydrogen peroxide. It was developed in the early 1970s by Produits Chimiques Ugine Kuhlmann, the chemicals division of Pechiney-Ugine-Kuhlmann, and is now operated by Arkema at its Lannemezan plant in southern France.

Lannemazan plant

The Lannemazan plant, on the outskirts of the town of Lannemazan in the Hautes-Pyrénées départment of southern France, is the world's largest hydrazine hydrate plant,[1] producing 17,000 tonnes of hydrazine products per year.[2]
