Brussels, Apr 26, 2023, Solvay to supply technology license for hydrogen peroxide mega-plant in China

Under the license, the Group will provide GHCAC with high-productivity hydrogen peroxide technology, a comprehensive process design package and operating expertise.

Solvay, a global market leader in specialty chemicals, has signed a license agreement with Guangxi Chlor-Alkali Chemical (GHCAC), which will enable the Chinese partner to build and operate a hydrogen peroxide megaplant at Qinzhou (Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region) designed to support its 300 kilotons propylene oxide (PO) production and other units on site.

Under this license, Solvay will provide its proprietary hydrogen peroxide mega-scale, high productivity process technology to GHCAC, including a dedicated process design package, operating expertise and a range of services to ensure the optimized and reliable production of the new megaplant. In addition, the company will also supply GHCAC with proprietary 2-amylanthraquinone (AQ), the key chemical contributing to the high productivity and
environmentally-friendly chemical processes of Solvay’s megaplant technology.

It has been further agreed that Solvay will have a hydrogen peroxide offtake after the megaplant starts up. This will support the strategic growth of Solvay’s hydrogen peroxide business in China, in particular in the southern area.

The propylene oxide is a versatile chemical intermediate for a wide range of materials in many industrial and commercial market segments, including polyurethanes, propylene glycol ethers and propoxylated organic specialty compounds.
