With the aim of producing Euro-5 diesel in Shiraz refinery, the company has recently conducted negotiations to sign an agreement with a multinational company, Honeywell UOP, over the purchase of much-needed know-how and licenses for producing high quality diesel, Shiraz refinery's managing director said.
"Upon receiving the license, the refinery's diesel output at 26,000 barrels per day will meet Euro-5 international standards," Rahim Shamseddini was also quoted as saying by Shana on Sunday.
Honeywell UOP, formerly known as UOP LLC, is a multinational company developing and delivering technology to the petroleum refining, gas processing, petrochemical production and major manufacturing industries.
According to the official, the technology will help the company design a special unit to minimize sulfur compounds to comply with global standards, which in turn will help fight the menace of air pollution.
