Uhde Inventa-Fischer wins work to build Polish polyamide 6 facility
Uhde Inventa-Fischer has been awarded a major contract from the Polish chemical group Grupa Azoty to build a polyamide 6 plant, officials announced on Monday.
The multi-line plant will be built at the company's headquarters in Tarnow, Poland, and will have a total capacity of 80,000 tpy of polyamide 6 for film applications and engineering plastics.
The polymerization plant will use Uhde Inventa-Fischer’s two-stage polyamide 6 process. The technological highlight of the plant will be the cost-effective,
feedstock-saving Overproportional Refeeding Process (
OPRP) developed by Uhde Inventa Fischer.
This process allows the caprolactam extract that accumulates on all production lines to be fed back to a single line and polymerized to high-quality polyamide 6.
The overall design concept enables the plant to be integrated into the existing industrial complex, thus allowing the use of existing infrastructure as well as the direct supply of the caprolactam
feedstock that is produced in GrupaAzoty’s plant.
Uhde Inventa-Fischer’s scope of supplies includes the know-how license, basic engineering and supply of all equipment as well as supervision of the
construction and commissioning activities.
