摘要

China's Wison (Nanjing) Clean Energy Co. Ltd. has selected UOP technology to convert methanol into building blocks for petrochemical products at an existing coal-chemical complex in China, UOP announced July 5. According to UOP, the project will be the first commercial-scale installation of Honeywell UOP's advanced MTO methanol-to-olefins solution, which allows petrochemical producers to use methanol from natural gas or coal, instead of petroleum, to produce high yields of high-value plastics and petrochemicals.
