Shanghai Petrochemical Expanding Cracker Capacity

Sinopec subsidiary, Shanghai Petrochemical, is in the midst of expanding the capacity of its No 1 cracker to 600,000 tonnes/year from 150,000 tonnes/year to build new chemical plants.

Some of the new chemical units planned are 300,000 tonne/year polypropylene (PP) unit and a 380,000 tonne/year monoethylene glycol (MEG) facility which may mean that the cracker need to be expanded up to 800,000 tonnes/year.
