Clough, an engineering and construction company first established in Australia, announced a significant front end engineering design and engineering, procurement and construction bid contract, in partnership with Hyundai Engineering USA, for the Encina Point Township Circular Manufacturing Facility in eastern Pennsylvania.
Encina, based in Texas, produces valuable circular chemicals, predominantly benzene, toluene and xylene (BTX) from end-of-life plastics. These chemicals form the basis from which many major consumer products are produced.
Using Encina’s proprietary technology, this plant will take 450,000 tons per annum of end-of-life plastic feedstock and convert it into circular BTX.
Manufacturers can be responsive to increasing consumer demand for circular and recycled content by seamlessly incorporating these products into their manufacturing processes.
Clough and Hyundai are creating synergies with new, innovative companies possessing key eco-friendly technologies and expertise in renewable energy to deliver successful EPC solutions.
