住友化学在千叶裂解装置关闭后合并石化业务部门

据悉，日本住友化学公司周三宣布，公司正在合并旗下石化和原料部门与有机化学品业务以创建一个单一的有机化学品业务部门。上月住友化学关闭了位于千叶的一套41.5万吨/年的乙烯装置。住友化学告诉《美国化学周刊》，此次重组将于7月1日起生效。此次重组取消了石化业务的一个部门，留下有机化学品和环氧丙烷业务作为功能部门。

Sumitomo Chemical merges petchems divisions following Chiba cracker closure

12:45 AM MDT | June 17, 2015 | Natasha Alperowicz

Sumitomo Chemical is merging its petrochemicals and feedstocks division with that of organic chemicals to create a single organic chemicals division, the company announced on Wednesday. The move follows the closure last month of Sumitomo Chemical’s 415,000 m.t./year Chiba ethylene plant. The restructuring is effective 1 July, Sumitomo Chemical tells CW. The restructuring removes one division in the company’s petchems business leaving organic chemicals and propylene oxide as the functioning divisions.
