Engineering company ECI Group has signed two license agreements for Process Technology and Engineering Design with a confidential client in China. The plants will be part of the client’s refining and petrochemical integrated project, a mega complex to be located in the Province of Jiangsu.

The plants will use high-pressure autoclave technology that has its roots in the heritage ICI process to manufacture of Polyethylene.

Within the framework of two separate agreements, ECI Group will provide the technology, engineering design, and training for the facility, and support through commissioning, start-up, and production for two new high-pressure polyethylene plants in China. The two lines will be capable of producing 50,000 tonnes per year of Ethylene Butyl Acrylate (EBA) and 100,000 tonnes per year of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) respectively, with the ability to produce other associated high-pressure copolymers in the future.

Repsol, the multi-energy company, is the technology partner of ECI Group and will provide its technical expertise on these kinds of plants and products.

The plants will use high-pressure autoclave technology that has its roots in the heritage ICI process to manufacture of Polyethylene. According to ECI, their design offers significant improvements in the product range, reliability, and expandability to the original ICI technology, and is optimized to make use of modern materials, design techniques, standards, and industry best practices for construction, operation, and maintenance.

While the client declined to provide a comment citing project confidentiality, they noted that they had reviewed a number of technology options and made the decision to select ECI Group’s autoclave technology for a number of important reasons including the unmatched product range, lower operating costs and the design built for future expansion of capacity and product development capabilities. They also recognized Repsol’s reputation as a long-standing producer of high-quality products, and expressed their desire to work with both partners for a fruitful long-term cooperation.
