The hottest PTA plant project with the largest sca

China's largest PTA plant project started in Zhuhai

Zhuhai officially announced on the 23rd that it will start the construction of China's largest and most efficient PTA (purified terephthalic acid) plant. This new plant is an expansion project of BP Zhuhai BP Chemical Co., Ltd., a joint venture between BP and Zhuhai Fuhua group, and will adopt BP's latest advanced technology. The project is planned to be put into operation at the end of 2007. The annual production capacity of 900000 tons will make it the largest single PTA device in the world. After the expansion is completed, the main instruments and equipment of Zhuhai BP: microcomputer controlled electro-hydraulic servo (Electronic) universal experimental machine, distance gauge, vernier caliper, etc The total annual output will reach 1.4 million tons
