SunAllomer to increase capacity by 60000 tpa at Oita PP plant

Write: Malva [2011-05-20]
Post shareholder approval, Japan's SunAllomer Ltd. has planned to invest at its Oita polypropylene plant for increasing production capacity by about 60,000 tpa of the first production line. LyondellBasells' Spheripol technology process will be employed to achieve cost reduction based on energy conservation and simpler plant management. The technology has already been used for the company's third line. All construction work is planned to be completed during the next periodical maintenance shutdown scheduled for April 2010.
