INEOS selected to supply leading technologies to Qingdao Haijing for the production PVC

QINGDAO HAIJING CHEMICAL (Group) Co. LTD has selected INEOS Technologies Vinyl Chloride Monomer (VCM) and Suspension Polyvinyl Chloride (S-PVC) technologies for a project at its new site located at Dongjia-kou Pro Port Industrial Zone, Qingdao, People’s Republic of China.

The 400 ktpa VCM plant features production of VCM by pyrolysis of Ethylene Dichloride (EDC). The EDC will be produced using high and low temperature chlorination and INEOS’s unique two stage fixed bed oxychlorination process.

The 300 ktpa S-PVC plant will produce a full range of suspension PVC grades from VCM using INEOS Technologies suspension process, including the use of INEOS Technologies proprietary PVC additives and recipes.

The two plants, forming part of a broader petrochemical complex, are scheduled to start-up in 2013.
