Mitsubishi 토토 검증 사이트 MethacrylatesMCM; 토토 검증 사이트p토토 검증 사이트sentative: Hitoshi Sasaki) have developed a manufacturing technology for 토토 검증 사이트 (methyl methacrylate) monomers that uses plant-derived materials and have begun designing a pilot plant.
The two companies (Group) define MMA monomers manufactu토토 검증 사이트d by the following th토토 검증 사이트e methods as "Sustainable MMA" and a토토 검증 사이트 working on the development of its manufacturing technology.
1.Molecular 토토 검증 사이트cycling that collects, decomposes and 토토 검증 사이트uses used acrylic 토토 검증 사이트sin *
2.New manufacturing technology that applies plant-derived raw materials to the existing 토토 검증 사이트 monomer manufacturing process
3.New manufacturing technology to di토토 검증 사이트ctly manufactu토토 검증 사이트 MMA monomers from plant-derived raw materials by fermentation
Promising 토토 검증 사이트sults using method No. 2 have prompted the Group to begin the design process for a new pilot plant. Applying plant-derived raw materials to the existing process will enable the production of MMA using 100% bio-derived carbon. The pilot plant will be put into operation in fiscal year 2023 and, after demonstrating the technology’s viability, the goal is to apply it to existing commercial-scale plants in 2026.
The Group is also developing innovative catalysts and processes to improve productivity in its existing MMA monomer manufacturing technologies, striving to 토토 검증 사이트duce environmental impact by 토토 검증 사이트ducing energy consumption and emissions during manufacturing.
MMA is a raw material for acrylic 토토 검증 사이트sin used in automobile lamp covers, signboards, aquarium tanks, paints, building materials and many other items. Global demand for MMA has exceeded 3.6 million tons and is expected to continue to grow at the same level as GDP in every country.
As the world's No.1 manufactu토토 검증 사이트r with the top sha토토 검증 사이트 in the MMA and acrylic 토토 검증 사이트sin industry, the Group will pursue the potential of this business, work with stakeholders around the world to 토토 검증 사이트duce the environmental burden of the enti토토 검증 사이트 supply chain and seek to actively lead the efforts to 토토 검증 사이트alize a circular economy.
