The olefin unit of Kangan Petro Refining Company in Bushehr Province, which comprises the second phase of the company’s development project, has registered 81% progress and is expected to come on stream in 2023.
The phase includes an ethylene plant that will help complete the value chain of the company’s products.
Located on a 15-hectare plot in Kangan County on the coast of Persian Gulf, the plant will produce propylene, polypropylene and high-density polyethylene, the Oil Ministry’s news agency Shana reported.
Ethylene and its byproducts are used as building block materials for a variety of products, including plastics, detergents and adhesives.
