Groundbreaking Ceremony of Yeocheon NC OCU Held

The Yeocheon NCC OCU (Olefins Conversion Unit) groundbreaking ceremony was held at Worksite 1 of Yeosu National Industrial Complex on August 21, 2014. Yeocheon NCC co-CEOs Park Jong-guk and Jeong Jin-won and Daelim Construction Business Division Technical Expert Heo Ok attended the ceremony.

The newly built OCU will produce high value-added propylene by having relatively low value-added C4 mixture react with ethylene via a catalyst. The plant will have annual production capacity of 140,000 tons. Once the plant’s construction is completed, Yeocheon NCC’s annual propylene production capacity will increase from 970,000 tons to 1.11 million tons. The project will be implemented by Daelim’s Plant Business Division together with Hanwha E&C, and the construction is scheduled to be completed by June 2015.
