Chemtex, along with an international technology partner, has been awarded a project for a waste water Cobalt recovery plant from PTA process in Poland.

The contract includes technology, know how, basic, detailed engineering and total equipment / material supply.

The plant will have a capacity to process up to 200 M3/hr of waste water on a continuous basis and will allow recovery and recycle of cobalt, which is a valuable catalyst in the PTA manufacturing process, and also ensure that water effluents will not impact the surrounding environment.

Given the importance of commitment in supporting and maintaining a clean environment globally, Chemtex believes this technology has great potential and will continue to work closely with its partners to provide valuable environmental solutions for the global industry.
