|
|
|
(polyestertime) -- Octal Petrochemicals
has installed the world’s largest reactors of melt-to resin technology (MTR) for
the production of highperformance PET as the fourth and fifth manufacturing
facilities remain firmly on track for completion in May 2012. To date, one
million manhours have been completed without a single lost-time-injury (LTI)
that reflects Octal’s strong commitment to safety standards.
The
expansion will add an additional 527,000 tonne a year of PET bottle grade resin
to Octal’s current production capacity of 400,000 tonne per annum, making it the
largest producer in the world on one site. The highly energy-efficient reactors
have proven successful for the production of high viscous melts, enabling Octal
to set the global benchmark for superior product quality and sustainability
through the application of the most advanced technology available.
The
PET resin and sheets produced are acclaimed by international experts to have the
lowest carbon footprint, paving the way for others in the industry to follow the
company’s pioneering footsteps.
