Sumitomo Chemical's PO manufacturing technology is カジノ シークレット 入金 不要 world’s first industrial scale cumene-based process for producing PO exclusively, using a cumene cycling method to produce PO without producing any co-products. This technology, combined with カジノ シークレット 入金 不要 use of カジノ シークレット 入金 不要 Company's proprietary high-performance epoxidation catalyst, delivers an extremely high PO yield, superior energy efficiency in separation and purification, and remarkable stability in plant operations. カジノ シークレット 入金 不要se features led to カジノ シークレット 入金 不要 receipt of カジノ シークレット 入金 不要 Grand Prize in this year’s awards. カジノ シークレット 入金 不要 technology is deployed at Sumitomo Chemical's Chiba Works in Japan, and it has been licensed to Petro Rabigh in Saudi Arabia, S-OIL Corp. of South Korea, a subsidiary of PTT Global Chemical Public Company Limited of Thailand, and Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) of India.
