Kazanorgsintez in Kazan (the Russian Federation) has warded Technip an ethylene capacity expansion project. The project encompasses not only the capacity expansion of three existing ethylene plants at Kazan from the present 400,000 tpa to 605,000 tpa by debottlenecking, but also their modernization and the installation in one of the plants of a new double-cell ethane cracking furnace.
The expansion of the ethylene plants will be based on Technip's in-house technology and the furnace will be designed using Technip's proprietary SMK®* technology, which is characterized by high selectivity and long on-stream time. Technip is carrying out the basic engineering for the ethylene plant capacity expansions as well as the complete engineering and supply of the new furnace. The capacity of the furnace will be 135,000 tpa of ethylene.
