Hengli Petrochemical selects INVISTA’s latest P8 technology

INVISTA’s technology and licensing group, INVISTA Performance Technologies (IPT), and Hengli Petrochemical Co.,Ltd. have reached an agreement to license INVISTA’s latest  purified terephthalic acid (PTA) process technology for Hengli’s fourth  PTA line. Hengli’s first three PTA lines, the first of which began operation in 2012, also utilize INVISTA’s technology and have a combined  capacity of 6.6 million metric tonnes per year. The fourth line will  have a design capacity of 2.5 million metric tonnes per year and will be  installed at Changxing Island, Liaoning Province of China.

Mike Pickens, IPT president, commented, “We are honored that Hengli  selected our advanced, industry-leading P8 technology for their next PTA  investment. We look forward to the continuation of our close  relationship with Hengli chairman, Mr. Chen Jianhua, and his very  capable team.”

This is another significant milestone in the evolution of INVISTA’s PTA  technology following 2017, which saw the successful start-up of both  Oriental Petrochemical (Taiwan) Company Limited’s third INVISTA PTA Line  (capacity of 1.52 million metric tonnes per year) and the first P8  technology deployment with Jiaxing Petrochemical Co., Ltd (capacity of  2.2 million metric tonnes per year).
