GTC Technology will provide its licensed Isomalk technologies to Shandong Sincier Chemical Group (SSCG) for a new refinery and petrochemicals complex in Dongying, Shandong province, People’s Republic of China. Isomalk-2, a light naphtha isomerization technology, will be used to produce an isomerate gasoline blend stock component for the production of clean fuels with higher added value at the refinery. Isomalk-3, an n-butane isomerization technology, will be used to produce isobutane that will be sent downstream to a newly designed CB&I CATOFIN unit for the production of isobutylene.
Isomalk-2 and Isomalk-3 are part of the Isomalk family of technologies, which also includes Isomalk-4, a process for C7 paraffin isomerization.
GTC’s scope of work for these projects includes licensing, basic engineering design, proprietary catalyst supply and technical service for the hydrotreating sections, C4 and C5/C6 isomerization units and the design of the naphtha and reformate splitters.
