EJPC signs agreement with Davy Process Technology
Egypt Japan Petrochemical Corp. S.A.E. (EJPC) and Davy Process Technology, a Johnson Matthey (JM) subsidiary, have signed a methanol operating licence agreement.
EJPC is developing a world scale combined methanol and ammonia project comprising a 6,000 metric tpd methanol plant which will employ Davy’s technology and a 2,000 metric tpd ammonia plant.
The methanol plant, which will utilize steam reforming of natural gas in conjunction with the advanced methanol synthesis process developed and licensed by Davy and JM, will be the largest methanol plant in the world. The hydrogen rich purge gas from the methanol loop will be used in the integrated ammonia plant.
“We are very pleased that EJPC has decided to proceed with their world scale project utilizing our reforming and methanol technologies and we look forward to working with EJPC throughout the plant design process, start-up and operation,” said Antoine Bordet, managing director of Davy Process Technology.
