Commissioning of a Dinitrotoluene Plant in Germany
- Details
For a plant complex of a renowned German company, MEISSNER as main contractor supplied a plant for the production of Dinitrotoluene (DNT) including the extension to an existing acid reconcentration plant. The DNT plant at a German production site has a capacity of 85,000 metric tons per year.
In July 2000, a test run of the plant was performed successfully and on schedule within three weeks only.
Just like a DNT plant previously supplied to the same customer for the same production site, also the new plant works according to the well proven MEISSNER DNT process. The product fabricated in the plant is used in the manufacture of Toluenediisocyanate (TDI).
