ZRCC Accumulated Ethylene Production Exceeds 3 Million Tons

At 18:00 on March 26, 2013, the accumulated ethylene product of ZRCC’s 1000KTA Ethylene Plant exceeded 3 million tons with the continuous on-stream time over 1000 days, and all technical-economic indicators have reached the leading level in the world. During the past three years, ZRCC ethylene project has promoted the rapid development of the local economy, which becomes the bright & beautiful name card of Zhejiang province.
After the start-up of the ethylene plant, the mode of local economic development has been transformed from paying tax & product supply to extending the petrochemical chain and improving the transformation of value chain, which enables ZRCC become the engine to drive the transformation and upgrading of petrochemical chain and the development of marine economy. The petrochemicals in East China provided by ZRCC ethylene plant is more than 2,583,000 tons each year, which promotes the rapid forming of chemical, textile, plastics and rubber industrial chains with the total downstream investment of over 100 billion RMB.
Some products of ZRCC ethylene plant, such as ethylene, butadiene, C5s, C9s, styrene, methane and H2, are supplied through pipeline to relevant downstream companies located in Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone. This arrangement not only reduces the transportation cost, but also eliminates the potential hazards, thus to achieve the safety economy target.
