LyondellBasell Industries N.V. (Rotterdam, the Netherlands) announced that Inner Mongolia Rongxin Co., Ltd. (Inner Mongolia Rongxin), will use the LyondellBasell Spheripol and Hostalen Advanced Cascade Process (Hostalen ACP) technologies for its new facility.
The process technology will be used for a 500,000-ton/yr Spheripol polypropylene (PP) plant and a 400,000-ton/yr Hostalen ACP high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plant, to be built in Ordos City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, P.R. China.
“Inner Mongolia Rongxin has selected a process enabling them to produce differentiated polyolefins which includes amongst others durable goods and infrastructure material,” said Patrik Schneider, LyondellBasell senior director of licensing. Schneider added: “Having the right technology makes the differences for operators to deliver favorable results in a more selective market environment”.
Mr. Hu Yun, General Manager of Inner Mongolia Rongxin said, “Trust and confidence was a key consideration when selecting technology from the market leader in polyolefin technology. We are excited to implement this project and looking forward to foster our relationship with LyondellBasell”.
