Air Liquide Engineering & Construction has recently signed a major contract worth approximately €100m ($112m) to design and build three Air Separation Units (ASUs) for Yankuang Group, one of the largest energy and chemical companies in China.
The new ASUs will each produce 3,200 tonnes per day of oxygen (O2) and nitrogen (N2) for the production of methanol-based chemicals, an additive widely used in the energy industry to increase combustion efficiency of hydrocarbon. As part of Yankuang’s major technological upgrading programme, two units will be delivered to Rongxin site in inner Mongolia and the third unit will be delivered to Yulin site in Shaanxi province, China.
The new ASUs will be built using Air Liquide’s latest innovative technologies and best in class standards to ensure a safe, optimised and reliable operation. All three ASUs will start operation in the second half of 2019.
