Storage and transportation:

We have several stock tanks of MTBE, and we have 9 railways in 4.5km, we have good transportation facilities.

Brief introduction of MTBE equipment:

It uses mixing phase bed-catalyze-distillation united process, which is consisted of mixing phase, catalyze-distillation, methanol extraction and recycling. The annual output is 10, 000 tons. The operation system is TELEPERM M DCS.
