凯茵化工讯 据普氏能源资讯11月14日新加坡报道，据一位知情人士透露，在获得地方当局的批准以后，台湾亚东石化有限公司(OPTC)计划在下周启动其建在台湾桃园的150万吨/年的精对苯二甲酸厂。

　　该消息人士称，新建的精对苯二甲酸厂S先将进行试运转成核剂。标普 全Q普氏能源资讯此前曾报道说，这个精对苯二甲酸厂将在10月初完成试运转。

　　OPTC目前在桃园运行另外两个精对苯二甲酸厂，它们分别是40万吨/年的1号厂和50万吨/年的2号厂。

Taiwan OPTC plans to start next week, the new plant of terephthalic acid

According to an informed source, Taiwan's Oriental Chemical (OPTC) plans to launch its construction project next week Taiwan's Taoyuan 1.5 million tons / year of refined terephthalic acid plant.

The source said the new refinery terephthalate plant will first be commissioned. Standard & Poor's Global Platts has previously reported that the refined terephthalic acid plant will be commissioned in early October.

OPTC currently operates two other terephthalic acid plants in Taoyuan, the No. 1 plant with a capacity of 400,000 tons / year and the No. 2 plant with a capacity of 500,000 tons / year. Although the OPTC officials said earlier that the 400,000 tpy plant will be permanently closed when the new plant starts production, sources close out that the decision to close permanently will depend on the market.
