AkzoNobel plans to expand vacuum salt production in Netherlands




AkzoNobel’s speciality chemicals business said that it is studying plans to expand production of high-purity vacuum salt at its Delfzijl site in Netherlands. The project would increase output at the facility by around 25 percent
The ongoing study is due to be completed in the first half of 2018, with the aim of completing the project within three years. It represents the latest in a series of expansions designed to meet increasing European demand for high-purity vacuum salt.
The salt is obtained from deposits at Delfzijl that are free of contamination and purified with the use of steam from sustainable sources, making it ideally suited for industrial applications.
The company’s Delfzijl site has become increasingly sustainable in recent years. For example, it uses renewable electricity and steam generated from waste, while green hydrogen is produced for buses that operate in the region.
