Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation will establish an olefins conversion unit (OCU) at its Kashima works with a propylene capacity of 150,000 tpa. The construction will start in December 2007 and will complete in November 2008. The expansion is to satisfy the high propylene demand. The OCU will utilize ABB Lummus' olefins conversion technology to convert 50,000 tpa of ethylene and 100,000 tpa of butane into propylene.
