September 7, 2019 |

In Denmark, Nakhodka Mineral Fertilizer Plant has chosen Haldor Topsoe technology for a 5,400 tons-per-day methanol plant near Vladivostok in the Eastern part of Russia. Topsoe will provide license, basic engineering, catalysts, and proprietary hardware for the methanol plant which will be based on Topsoe’s two-step reforming technology.

Nakhodka Mineral Fertilizer Plant is developing the modern gas-to-chemical facility in the Far East of Russia with planned total capacity up to 1.8 million tons of methanol and up to 1.8 million tons of ammonia. The Project has its own seaport and is advantageously located to the growing markets of South-East Asia. The feedstock natural gas is secured by long-term agreement with Gazprom, Russian leading gas supplier.

The world-scale methanol plant will be located near the major Russian seaport Nakhodka in the Primorsky region with an intent to export its products to the Asia-Pacific Region.
