PTA plant likely to be restarted by Mitsubishi

:: 28 May  2014 ::

Mitsubishi Chemical is likely to restart a purified terephthalic acid (PTA) plant following maintenance turnaround.

A Polymerupdate source in China informed that the plant is planned to be restarted by end-May 2014. It was shut in mid-May 2014 owing to negative margins for PTA.

Located in Ningbo, China, the plant has a production capacity of 600,000 mt/year.
