Lotte Chemical restarted its cracker

Lotte Chemical Titan Holding Bhd’s KBR Catalytic Olefins Technology catalytic cracking reactor (K-COT) resumed its operations last week following a stop-work order in early October.

The group said in a statement that K-COT within its TE3 project, now known as Fluidised Naphtha Cracker (FNC), will begin commercial operations on Saturdayafter successful test runs.

The Department of Environment issued a stop-work order on Lotte Chemical’s Pasir Gudang factory identified as the source of a stench, which had reached Singapore’s shores.
