R\u00f6hm\u2019s methyl methacrylate (MMA) plant in Bay City, Texas based on the innovative LiMA technology, is now operating all four reactors of the planned production volume.<\/p>\n
Just one year after its successful start-up, the facility is now operating steadily at routine capacity, underscoring the strong performance of this proprietary C2 based technology.<\/p>\n
R\u00f6hm’s Bay City, Texas MMA plant has reached full operational capacity, with all four reactors now running steadily using its proprietary LiMA C2 technology.
\nWithin a year of start-up, the facility has achieved stable, high-quality output, reinforcing supply security in North America while supporting global demand and operational efficiency. <\/p>\n
R\u00f6hm is the only company in the United States producing MMA using this highly efficient C2 process. The state-of-the-art plant combines advanced process design with extensive automation technology, an interplay that ensures safe, stable, and quality focused operations. Since start-up, the plant has consistently delivered MMA of reliably high product quality.<\/p>\n
Following commissioning, operations were gradually ramped up, supported by extensive validation and continuous process optimization. Reaching full capacity significantly strengthens R\u00f6hm\u2019s position in the North American market and advances the company\u2019s \u2018In the Region, for the Region\u2019 strategy. This strategy aims to ensure supply security for local customers through production facilities in the major economic regions of the USA, China, and Europe. With full production capabilities, the Bay City site can now reliably meet domestic demand while flexibly serving international markets.<\/p>\n
Planned Turnaround in the Second Quarter<\/p>\n
As part of site operator Oxea\u2019s planned turnaround in the second quarter, the LiMA plant will also be taken offline for scheduled maintenance. This planned measure is intended to secure the site\u2019s long term operational safety and efficiency.<\/p>\n
