200 000 T/A LDPE Project Put on Stream in Daqing

The 200 000 t/a LDPE (low density polyethylene) project has put on stream in Daqing Petrochemical Co., Ltd. in July 2005, with a total investment of RMB1.28 billion. Because of its completion, the company's annual output of polyolefin will increase from 480 000 tons to 680 000 tons, and the output of specialty material will account for over 40% in the company's polyolefin output.    Adopting Lupotech T technology from Basel Company, the project can manufacture 5 categories, 43 types of LDPE products, with the characteristics of good catalyst capability, short process flow, simple facility, less request on the precision of raw materials, and low energy consumption. Besides, using the Lupotech T technology, LDPE homopolymer and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) can be produced.
