據烴加工新聞8月10日消息稱,美國農業企業巨頭嘉吉公司和泰國PTT Global Chemical Pcl宣布,他們將在泰國建造一座耗資超過 6 億美元的生物聚合物生產設施。
PTTGC在一份聲明中表示,該工廠將通過他們的合資企業NatureWorks建造,并將幫助滿足對可持續材料日益增長的需求。
該生產基地每年將使用泰國農民提供的約11萬噸糖作為原料,并擁有每年7.5萬噸生物聚合物的生產能力。它將于2024年開始運行。
其產品可用于制作衛生口罩、抹布和食品包裝。
不到一個月前,PTTGC宣布以47.5億美元收購德國涂料樹脂制造商Allnex。

Cargill and PTTGC to build $600 MM biopolymer plant
U.S. agribusiness giant Cargill Inc and Thailand’s PTT Global Chemical Pcl announced they will build a biopolymer production facility at a cost of more than $600 million in Thailand.
The plant will be built through their joint venture, NatureWorks, and will help meet increasing demand for sustainable materials, PTTGC said in a statement.
The manufacturing complex will use about 110,000 tonnes of sugar annually from Thai farmers as a raw material and have an annual biopolymer capacity of 75,000 tonnes. It is due to begin operations in 2024.
Its products can be used to make hygiene masks, wiping cloths and food packaging.
The investment comes less than a month after PTTGC announced a $4.75 billion acquisition of German coating resins maker Allnex.
