China’s Fujian Refining & Petrochemicals (FREP) is running its new 60,000 tonne/year butadiene (BD) unit in Fujian province at 100% of capacity after starting up recently in May, market sources said on Friday.

Its existing 120,000 tonne/year BD unit at the same location in Quanzhou is currently running at a reduced rate of 70% capacity, market sources said.

FREP’s total BD capacity rose to 180,000 tonnes/year following the recent start-up of its new 60,000 tonne/year BD unit.
