In a joint enterprise with Chongqing Chemical & Pharmaceutical Holding Company (CCPHC), the Linde Group is set to build and operate a large hydrogen and synthesis gas plant in the Chongqing Chemical Park in Western China. Total investment in the project is approximately EUR 200 million for the new on-site plant which will provide the production facilities of BASF and CCPHC based in Chongqing with carbon monoxide, hydrogen and synthesis gas. The new plant will be supplied by Linde’s Engineering Division and is expected to come on stream in the third quarter of 2014.
