Ningbo Huatai Shengfu Wealthy Polymer Material was forced to shut its hydrocarbon ethylene cracker in Daxie, Ningbo last night, 8 November 2021 following a technical difficulty.
The cracker has an annual output of 600,000 tons/year of ethylene. At the time of this report, it is unclear to when the company would be able to bring the unit back online.
As a result of feedstock disruptions, the producer has taken all of its downstream units at the same complex offline, including a 450,000 tons/year styrene monomer (SM) plant, and a 450,000 tons/year FDPE plant until the cracker resume operation.
