HIP-Petrohemija - Panorama
In the integrated petrochemical complex HIP-Petrohemija, currently it is possible to produce more than six hundred thousand tons of petrochemicals a year.
The production starts in Pancevo, in seven manufacturing and service facilities, with laboratories and the necessary supporting services. Here the production process of ethylene with co-products and polyethylene HIPLEX® and HIPTEN® takes place. Polyethylene Pipes and Fittings Plant is also situated in Pancevo.
In Elemir near Zrenjanin, in the Synthetic Rubber Plant, a co-product from Pancevo - C4-fractions, is used as a raw material. Through its processing is generated 1,3-butadiene monomer, and then polymer – a synthetic styrene-butadiene rubber HIPREN®. On this site is also produced methyl-tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE), an additive for motor fuel. For the production of MTBE, a raw material raffinate 1 is used, a residue after processing C4-fractions.
In Crepaja near Pancevo is Polyethylene Compounds Plant, where a high density polyethylene produced in a factory in Pancevo is used as the raw material.
Polymeric products HIPTEN ®, HIPLEX ® and HIPREN ® are intended for plastic and rubber processors, and they are integrated in a large number of everyday objects, making life a better, safer and more comfortable.
Basic products that are not processed in HIP-Petrohemija (propylene, pyrolytic oil, pyrolytic gasoline) are the starting point for many other purposes in the chemical and processing industry.
