Alireza Javanmardi said by implementing the deals, the country
would no longer need to import the items.
Speaking to reporters, he said 8 catalysts are used for production
of urea and ammonia products, of which seven catalysts have been localized so
far.
Announcing that a memorandum of understanding has been
signed for production of the last catalyst for urea and ammonia units, he expressed
hope that Iran would soon join the club of the producers of "ammonia
synthesis" catalysts.
“By making this catalyst, the collection of catalysts used
in the urea and ammonia chain will become Iranian and we will no longer need to
import the catalysts used in this chain,” he said.
