A new degradable plastics plant to be operated by Lianxin Environmental Protection Technology (Taixing) Co Ltd – located in the Taixing Economic Development Zone in Taixing city, in East China's Jiangsu province – recently advanced its construction.
With a total investment of 518.6 million yuan ($72.04 million), when finished and ramped up to full capacity the plant is expected to produce 25,000 metric tons of degradable plastics annually.
"Plans are for the project to be completed by April and put into operations," said Wang Wei, project director of the company – adding that all personnel were on duty before the Lantern Festival, which fell on Feb 24 this year, in order to complete it with quality and speed.
At present, various regions in Taixing city have prioritized the resumption of major projects, with special project service personnel visiting project sites to promptly help solve any difficulties.
