North Huajin will build a mega-plant for hydrogen peroxide to manufacture propylene oxide in China
Solvay has entered into an agreement to license its main-aspect hydrogen peroxide technology to North Huajin Refining and Petrochemical Company (North Huajin) for the manufacturing of 300 kilotons of propylene oxide according to year in its Panjin (Liaoning Province, China) facility, with a planned release in 2026.
Solvay partners with clients through its advance hydrogen peroxide technology to construct efficient, reliable, and safe production centers. For North Huajin, Solvay will offer its proprietary mega-scale process, complete with a design package, operational understanding, and support services to ensures reliable, optimized output.
In addition, Solvay will supply proprietary 2-amylanthraquinone (AQ), the important key chemical contributing to the high productivity and environmentally-friendly chemical procedure of Solvay’s mega plant technology. This will guide the strategic boom of Solvay’s hydrogen peroxide enterprise in China.
“This marks the third licensing agreement for Solvay’s proprietary excessive-productivity, mega-scale hydrogen peroxide process technology in China,” said Carlos Silveira, President of Solvay’s Peroxides business. “Through those partnerships, we help our customers in producing high – quality hydrogen peroxide with the same overall performance as our own facilities. We sit up for operating closely with North Huajin.”
Jin Xiaochen, President of North Huajin, added: “This agreement represents a substantial milestone inside the growing collaboration among our two enterprises. We believe that by using combining our strengths in resources, value chain, and deep neighborhood marketplace know-how with Solvay’s knowledge, advanced technology, and production management capabilities, we will be better geared up to meet the market needs.”
HPPO (Hydrogen Peroxide to Propylene Oxide) is the main method for producing propylene oxide (PO), a key chemical intermediate used to make polyurethane foams (for mattresses and car seats), adhesives, coatings, and diverse plastics and chemicals essential to industries consisting of production, automobile, healthcare, and agriculture.
