It has been noted that the North American market for allyl chloride consumption will probably grow extensively in the next decade and that additional production capacity may be needed. In order to maintain our current market share and to remain competitive in this market, it may become necessary to build a new allyl chloride facility.
With this in mind, a new (grassroots) production facility to produce commercial-grade allyl chloride is being investigated. This facility ...
