Solvay Sodi unveils sodium bicarbonate plant in Bulgaria

摘要

Solvay Sodi,a joint-venture between Solvay and Sisecam,unveiled the result of another large-scale investment project at the Devnya plant in Bulgaria.This growth project increases capacity for the production of sodium bicarbonate-a derivative of soda ash-at the plant by 200,000 tonnes.The new facility responds to the growing global demand for sodium bicarbonate,an essential product notably used for removing pollutants from the flue gas in industrial applications and as an additive in animal feed,among many other applications.With this investment,Devnya,which is already Europe's largest soda ash plant,becomes the second largest sodium bicarbonate plant in Europe and one of the biggest in the world.
