Contract Signing
MOL Petrochemicals has signed a contract with McDermott International, Inc. for the basic engineering, technology license, catalyst, and Front End Engineering Design (FEED) for an Olefins Conversion Technology (OCT) unit. This unit will be located at MOL Petrochemicals' complex in Tiszaújvaros, Hungary.
Production Capacity
Once completed, the new unit will have a production capacity of 100,000 MTA of polymer-grade propylene. The feedstocks for this production will come from steam cracker and refinery sources.
Technological Components
The project will utilize Lummus’ proprietary Olefins Conversion Technology (OCT) and CDHydro® Deisobutenizer. These technologies are known for their efficiency and low energy consumption, making the production process more economical and environmentally friendly.
Additional Outputs
In addition to polymer-grade propylene, the unit will also produce an isobutene-rich stream, further enhancing the versatility and output of the facility.
