Midland-Dow Chemical is debottlenecking its Plaquemine, La., ethylene propylene diene monomer facility to add 25-million lbs/yr of new capacity in the first quarter of next year. Noting that the plant will continue to operate at full rates during the expansion, Luis Cirihal, Dow Elastomers' business director, said the company "will continue to invest to meet growing demand."
