(Plastemart) -- Lummus
Technology, a CB&I company, has been awarded a contract from Kazakhstan
Petrochemical Industries Inc. LLP (KPI) for the license and basic engineering of
a propane dehydrogenation unit and a polypropylene plant. The two units, each with a design
capacity of 500 KTa are planned as part of KPI’s gas processing complex to be
built in the western Atyrau region.
The propane dehydrogenation unit will make use of the CATOFIN technology
for conversion of propane to propylene. The polypropylene plant will use the
Novolen advanced gas-phase polypropylene technology, which will enable KPI to
produce a broad range of polypropylene products to meet the needs of both local
and export markets. Both technologies provide high reliability and easy
operability.
