Project Newton, US
Name of the Project
Project Newton.
Location
The project will be located at the existing Ineos Nitriles property, in Calhoun County, Green Lake, Texas, in the US.
Client
Newton Manufacturing, a wholly owned subsidiary of Novus International Inc.
Project Description
Novus plans to expand its feed-supplement manufacturing capacity, as the projected global demand for methionine is forecast to outpace planned increases in production capacity.
The project will comprise the construction of a new on-purpose hydrocyanic acid processing unit and a methionine processing unit.
Associated infrastructure and utilities will include:
• hazardous-waste injection wells;
• access roads;
• construction lay-down and parking areas;
• maintenance and administrative buildings;
• electricity transmission lines;
• water and waste-treatment facilities; and
• rail, barge and pipeline raw material and product transport easements.
The facility will produce 120 000 t/y of feed supplement.
Potential Job Creation
The project will have about 600 workers at peak construction.
About 65 permanent jobs are expected to be created once construction has been completed.
Value
The project is expected to cost $360-million to implement.
Duration
Construction is expected to start in the first half of 2019 and be completed by the end of 2020.
Latest Developments
The site for the proposed manufacturing facility was selected in November.
