Honeywell's UOP Wins Third License For Breakthrough Methanol-To-Olefins Technology To Convert Coal Into High-Value Petrochemicals

Shandong will also use the Olefin Cracking Process, which boosts the total yield of useable ethylene and propylene by further converting olefins produced during the MTO process.

Previously, Honeywell's UOP announced two other MTO projects. China's Wison ( Nanjing) Clean Energy Company Ltd. also licensed Honeywell UOP's advanced MTO solution. China's Jiutai Energy (Zhungeer) Co. licensed Honeywell's UOP/Hydro MTO process. The facilities are expected to produce 295,000 and 600,000 metric tons of ethylene and propylene per year, respectively.
