TOYO receive contract for the first ever Urea fertilizer plant in Angola
Toyo Engineering Corporation has been awarded a project to license its proprietary urea technology to Amufert S.A., a joint venture fertilizer company in the Republic of Angola. The project involves the construction of one of the world’s largest urea plants, with a daily production capacity of 4,000 tons, located in the Soyo region of Zaire Province.
This plant will be the first urea fertilizer production facility in Angola, a country that has recently increased its natural gas production. The plant will contribute to achieving 100% domestic production of urea fertilizer, which has been entirely imported until now, while also supporting regional exports to enhance food security. Additionally, the project is expected to add value to Angola’s natural gas resources, improve the trade balance through exports to neighboring countries, create employment opportunities, and contribute to the diversification of Angola's industrial sector.
As the licensor for urea synthesis and granulation technologies, TOYO's scope in the project includes licensing, basic design, supply of proprietary equipment and technical services. TOYO will apply its proprietary ACES21™ urea synthesis technology*¹ and urea granulation technology*², enabling cost-effective plant construction and optimized operating conditions. The engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) of the entire fertilizer complex, including ammonia production and auxiliary facilities, will be handled by Wuhuan Engineering Co., Ltd.
TOYO has an extensive global track record, having provided its proprietary urea technology for over 100 projects worldwide. In Africa, TOYO has successfully completed two urea plants of the same 4,000 tons per day capacity for Indorama Eleme Fertilizer & Chemicals Limited in Nigeria in 2016 and 2021, and is currently executing there a third project of the same scale.
Additionally, TOYO has collaborated with Wuhuan on projects in Indonesia, successfully executing urea fertilizer plant projects for PT Petrokimia Gresik in 2015 and PT Pupuk Sriwidjaja Palembang in 2023. The proven performance of TOYO’s large-scale plant urea technology and its successful partnership with Wuhuan played a key role in securing this latest contract.
With the increasing global demand for fertilizers due to population growth and the need to boost food production, numerous fertilizer plant construction projects are underway worldwide. As a leading urea technology licensor, TOYO remains committed to meeting global fertilizer needs while maintaining a strong focus on environmental sustainability.
