AkzoNobel Selects Tebodin for Frankfurt Chlorine Plant Conversion

AkzoNobel Industrial Chemicals said has selected consulting and engineering company Tebodin for the engineering, procurement and construction management of a new chlorine plant in Frankfurt into state-of-the-art membrane electrolysis technology. The new plant will increase current annual production in Frankfurt by approximately 50%, to 250 kilotons of chlorine and 275 kilotons of caustic lye. The energy consumption per tonne of product will be improved by nearly 30%.

The project will be carried out in conjunction with AkzoNobel Engineering & Operational Solutions in Arnhem, the Netherlands. Tebodin will perform the project with a project team of around 70 staff from the Tebodin offices in Hengelo, the Netherlands and Gelsenkirchen, Germany.

Construction will start in August 2012. Expectations are that the new chlorine production facility in Frankfurt will come on stream in the fourth quarter of 2013.
