China supply deal for Praxair

0

Praxair, through a subsidiary, has signed a long-term contract to supply industrial gases to Nanjing Jinling Huntsman New Materials Co., Ltd., a joint venture between SINOPEC Jinling and Huntsman.

Jinling Huntsman will use the gases to help build a state-of-the-art propylene oxide (PO) and methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) plant located in Nanjing, East China. PO is a high-quality intermediate compound used to make polyurethane materials, and MTBE is a clean fuel additive.

Praxair will construct its new air separation unit (ASU), with a capacity of 900 tonnes per day of oxygen, in the Phase II area of Nanjing Chemical Industrial Park (NCIP), a leading, state-level interconnected chemical production facility. The agreement also means that Praxair will also build a pipeline in the park to help meet the industrial gas requirements of Jinling Huntsman and other customers throughout NCIP. The ASU is expected to start up in 2016.

“Nanjing Jinling Huntsman New Materials Co., Ltd. is very pleased to select Praxair as its industrial gas supplier and cooperative partner,” said Ju Zhengyu, general manager of Nanjing Jinling Huntsman New Materials Co., Ltd.
