The Shaw Group Inc. announced Tuesday that its Shaw Stone & Webster unit will license and supply process design services for its Purification and Recovery Technology to China National BlueStar Corp.
It will enable the recovery of ethylene and propylene from a Catalytic Pyrolysis Processing (CPP) unit and will be used in BlueStar’s Shenyang Paraffin-Wax Chemical Co., Shenyang Chemical Group Corp.’s 135,000-tons-per-year ethylene plant in Liaoning Province, China.“This project integrates Sinopec’s CPP technology with Shaw Stone & Webster’s Purification and Recovery Technology. This first commercial application will enable our customers to convert low-cost, heavy feedstock to valuable products such as ethylene and propylene,” said J.M. Bernhard, Jr., Chairman and CEO of Shaw.
