UK-based BP plans to expand capacity of its purified terephthalic acid (PTA) plant, which is a precursor to PET, in Zhuhai. The debottlenecking will increase capacity by more than 200,000 tonnes/year, making the total PTA capacity of the Zhuhai site 1.7 million tonnes/year by 2012. The joint venture company with Zhuhai Port will also build its third PTA plant.
