New unit at Danube Refinery will double maleic anhydride output and is due online in H2 2027, aiming to strengthen European supply security and improve energy efficiency.
Evaluating up to 50% stake in Zhoushan advanced-materials project; PDA sets framework toward a potential FID and joint development.
Q3 2025 saw a net loss of $25M, adjusted EBITDA of $94M, and free cash flow of $157M. Dividend cut by 65% to $0.35 annually. Restructuring aims for $100M savings by 2026.
SynDane 3142 LA catalyst boosts yield, cuts byproducts and energy use, enhancing efficiency and sustainability at Wanhua's maleic anhydride plant.
A new 60 ktpa Maleic Anhydride reactor will be installed in Ravenna by 2021, manufactured by Walter Tosto Spa, to support growing composites production.
The new plant will be operational by end of 2016, increasing total capacity to 22,000 T/Y. Malic Acid demand is driven by food, beverage, confectionery, and technical applications.
Originally designed in 1979, the plant switched from benzene to N-butane in 2006 for environmental and financial reasons, producing 9,600 tonnes of crude Maleic Anhydride in the first year.
The plant, licensed by BASF, produces 22,000 metric tons of Phthalic anhydride and 700 metric tons of Maleic anhydride annually, selling mainly to Turkey, Romania, Bulgaria, Germany, Italy, Greece, and Ukraine.
