Numaligarh Refinery Ltd (NRL) in Golaghat, Assam, India, has selected Lummus Technology’s Novolen for a new 360 KTA polypropylene (PP) unit.
Lummus, a global provider of process technologies and value-driven energy solutions, will provide the technology licence, basic design engineering, training, technical services and catalyst supply.
“We are honoured to continue supporting NRL’s business and are grateful for their confidence in Lummus’ technologies,” said Leon de Bruyn, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lummus Technology.
“Novolen is currently the industry’s most-licensed polypropylene technology throughout the world, including in India. This leading position is the result of continuous innovation and our customer commitment to provide technologies and solutions that yield maximum profitability, performance, and product quality and flexibility.”
In 2021, NRL licensed Indmax FCC technology from Lummus and LC-FINING technology from Chevron Lummus Global, a joint venture between Chevron and Lummus.
Lummus Novolen Technology licenses the industry leading Novolen PP technology and provides engineering, technical support and advisory services to the hydrocarbon processing industry.
