Hanwha to Build W360 Bil. Chemical Plant in China

Hanwha Group has taken the first step in a massive overseas investment plan.

Hanwha Chemical Corp. said Monday that it will build a W360 billion (US$1=W938) chemical plant in China to strengthen its core vinyl business and secure future growth engines.

The plant, to be located in Ningbo in Zhejiang Province, will start mass production in 2010.

Once the Chinese plant begins full operation, the company hopes to achieve annual sales of W300 billion and operating profit of W50 billion in China based on its experience and secure sales network in the country.

Hanwha said that markets in the Zhejiang Province area suffer from a lack of supply because output falls far short of the market size.

"We will use the project as an opportunity to not only secure our status as the leading polyvinyl chloride maker in China but also grow into a global company by expanding our overseas sales and profits bases," the company said.

ハンファ石化、中国・寧波にプラント建設へ 415億円を投資

 ハンファ石油化学は14日、ビニール分野の競争力強化に向け、中国浙江省寧波市の大謝経済技術開発区に3600億ウォン(約415億8600万円)を投資し、石油化学プラントを建設すると発表した。操業開始は2010年を見込む。

 同社は寧波工場が本格稼動すれば、中国で蓄積したノウハウと安定的な営業網を駆使して年間3000億ウォン(約346億5900万円)の売り上げと500億ウォン(約57億7600万円)の営業利益を計上できると見込んでいる。

 同社は「今回のプロジェクトの成功をきっかけに中国のポリ塩化ビニル市場の上位圏メーカーとして地位を固め、韓国国内に偏っていた売り上げ、収益基盤を海外に拡大し、名実ともに世界的な企業として生まれ変わりたい」としている。

 ハンファ・グループは、年初に金升淵(キム・スンヨン)会長がグループ経営戦略会議で、年内にグループ全体で1兆5000億ウォン(約1730億円)を海外に投資し、2011年までに海外での売り上げ比率を40%まで引き上げる方針を示していた。

Taiwan's Formosa to build new 400 kt/yr EDC plant by 2004-2005

Taiwan's Formosa Plastics Corp plans to expand its EDC production capacity by 400,000 mt/yr to 1.3-mil mt/yr by the end of 2004 or early 2005 by building a new plant at Mai Liao, a company source said Wednesday.

To support the new unit Formosa has ordered an electrolysis plant from Japan's Asahi Kasei that can produce between 300,000 to 330,000 mt/yr of caustic soda and around 280,000 mt/yr of chlorine.


Westlake Grouphttp://www.westlakegroup.com/operations.html

Following three decades of experience in Asia, Chao Group entered the U. S. market in 1986 with the acquisition of a polyethylene plant in Sulphur, Louisiana, near Lake Charles.
In the ensuing years, Westlake Group has employed a combined strategy for its chemical plants of acquisition, expansion of existing facilities, and new construction. In addition, Westlake Group acquired manufacturing facilities for its vinyls-based fabricated products businesses.
In less than 15 years, Westlake Group has become a principal operating interest of Chao Group, encompassing 16 operating facilities in North America.

Westlake Monomers Corporation acquired its vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) plant from the B.F. Goodrich Company in 1990. The plant is located within a 300-acre chemical complex in Calvert City, Kentucky, approximately 15 miles east of Paducah on the Tennessee River. It is strategically located to serve downstream polyvinyl chloride facilities located in the Midwest and Northeast United States. Capacity of the plant is 1.1 billion pounds of VCM per year.

Our polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin manufacturing facility in Calvert City, Kentucky is owned and operated by Westlake PVC Corporation. The plant was acquired in 1991 and was formerly operated by Air Products and Chemicals.
The Calvert City, PVC plant is located on a 25-acre site.
Westlake PVC Corporation benefits from vertical integration as its primary raw material, vinyl chloride monomer, is produced by the Westlake Monomers Corporation plant, approximately one mile away.
PVC is the world's second most widely used plastic; only polyethylene is used in greater volume. PVC is produced in powder form, then combined with other ingredients to create a compound with specific processing and end-use properties. PVC is often used in infrastructure development and building products. In this market, Westlake Group is integrated into the manufacturer of pipe through
North American Pipe Corporation.

Tekonor Apex licenses innovative starch-blend technology from Cerestech for producing bioplastics

The agreement grants Teknor Apex exclusive worldwide rights to manufacture and market products based on Cerestechs patented technology and to sub-license use of the blending process. The technology involves preparing relatively low-cost thermoplastic starch (TPS) from starch granules and then combining it as a masterbatch with bioplastics like polylactic acid (PLA) or polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), or with petrochemical-based polymers such as polyethylene.


The Cerestech process is based on patented technology developed by Dr. Basil Favis, who founded Cerestech Inc. as a spinoff company from the Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal. The technology makes it possible to combine other polymers with TPS from vegetable sources like corn, wheat, or potato while achieving better performance properties than are typical for conventional starch-containing blends, said Dr. John Andries, Teknor Apex senior vice president of technology.

Solvay launces tender offer on shares Vinythai
 Offer will allow Solvay to support development of Vinythais businesses

Solvay today announces that in line with its strategy of growing in emerging markets, its Dutch subsidiary Solvay Chemicals and Plastics Holding B.V. is launching a tender offer on the shares of Vinythai, the Thai Vinyl and Chlor-alkali producer. Solvays participation in Vinythai recently has crossed the threshold of 50% of the shares of its Thai subsidiary. The tender offer price is 6.15 Thai Baht per share, and the offer period will run from December 16th 2009 to January 21st 2010. Solvay has no intention to increase the price or to extend the term of the Tender Offer.
The offer will allow Solvay to support the development of Vinythai
s businesses, including the Epicerol (R) project recently transferred to Vinythai. Epicerol is an innovative and environment friendly production process for epichlorohydrin, protected by 38 patent applications, some of them already granted in different parts of the World. It is based on the transformation of natural glycerine mainly obtained as by-product from the production of biofuels.
Epichlorohydrin is an essential feedstock for the production of epoxy resins, increasingly used in applications such as corrosion protection coatings as well in the electronics, automotive or aerospace industry. Demand for epichlorohydrin to produce wind turbine blades of windmills is also soaring.

VINYTHAI is a Vinyl and Chlor-alkali producer listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand. Its major shareholders are the Solvay Group (50%), PTT Chemical Public Company (24.98%), and the Charoen Pokphand Group (11.87%).
In 2008 Vinythai recorded total revenues of 13,312 MTHB (EUR 275 million) and booked a net profit of 1,035 MTHB (EUR 21 million). Vinythai employs 390 people.

A year ago Vinythai increased its PVC capacity at Map Ta Phut in Thailand by 70,000 tonnes to 280,000 tonnes, and has a plan to raise capacity in stages to 400,000 tonnes.
The site is also home to the 100,000
 tonnes glycerine-to-epichlorohydrin Epicerol process plant being built by Solvay, and due to be operational about now. The Epicerol process makes epichlorohydrin from the glycerine by-product of biodiesel production. Epichlorohydrin is a feedstock for the production of epoxy resins and Solvay says demand for it has significantly outpaced the growth of the world economy in recent years.
