Stamicarbon awarded licensing and process design package for El Delta urea plant expansion in Egypt
Stamicarbon, the nitrogen technology licensor of MAIRE S.p.A., has been awarded the licensing and the Process Design Package (PDP) for the upgrade and expansion of El Delta Company for Fertilizer and Chemical Industries’ urea plant in Talkha, El Mansoura, Dakahlia Governorate, Egypt.
Stamicarbon will provide the license and the PDP to increase the urea plant’s production capacity from 1,725 metric tons per day (MTPD) to 2,250 MTPD by applying its proprietary Ultra-Low Energy Design. This technology, part of the proprietary NX STAMI Urea™ series, achieves a 35% reduction in steam consumption and a 16% decrease in cooling water use by utilizing high-pressure steam three times instead of twice, resulting in significant energy savings compared to conventional CO2 stripping.
The contract also includes the license and design of a new urea granulation unit with a capacity of 2,250 MTPD. Stamicarbon will apply its latest urea fluid-bed granulation technology that ensures the production of high-quality urea that meets the strictest industry standards.
“We are honored to be entrusted with this significant project, which further solidifies Stamicarbon’s role as a leader in urea melt and finishing technologies in Egypt,” says Pejman Djavdan, CEO of Stamicarbon. ”This expansion will significantly improve El Delta’s production from both a capacity and sustainability perspective.”
