In a continuing effort to reduce its energy footprint, Indorama Ventures PTA Montréal L.P. just put in service a turbo-generator unit that helps reduce about 20% of the electrical consumption of the company. The turbine generates on average 6,700 kW from steam, equivalent to the consumption of 2000 houses.

“The addition of the turbine allows us to recover steam previously released to the atmosphere, to considerably reduce electricity consumption and even significantly reduce the noise generated by the venting of excess steam. This project allows Indorama Ventures PTA Montréal L.P. to be more efficient in terms of energy, to reduce our processing costs and to maintain our competitiveness in the PTA market”, said Mr. Michel Douville, General Manager.

Indorama Ventures PTA Montréal L.P. would like to thank all employees and suppliers who have contributed to the realization of this important project.
