Vinyl acetate monomer plant, UK/Germany/Belgium
Name of the Project
Vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) plant.
Location
The plant is likely to be one of INEOS Oxide’s integrated sites at Saltend, in Hull, in the UK; Koln, in Germany; or Antwerp, in Belgium. Each of these locations benefits from pipeline or terminal supply of feedstock ethylene, and low-cost logistics for the other key raw material, acetic acid. In addition, the locations are well positioned to supply the VAM market efficiently.
Client
INEOS Oxide.
Project Description
The plan is to build a 300 000 t VAM plant.
VAM is an essential building block in the production of many diverse products, including paints, windscreens, high-performance films, car fuel tanks, polyvinylchloride and adhesives.
