• Resumen

  • Like Kazan, Eti Soda's Beypazari project was delayed for financial reasons. Construction of the facility began in October 2014 using the Chinese contractor, China Tianchen Engineering Corp. (TCC), on an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) basis, with start-up targeted for early 2017. Once operational, Beypazari's initial capacity will be 500,000 tpa soda ash and 100,000 tpa sodium bicarbonate. Final capacity will be 1.5m tpa soda ash across three production lines, 200,000 tpa sodium bicarbonate across two production lines.

    When both sites are completed, the total combined capacity of Kazan and Beypazari will be 4m tpa soda ash and 400,000 tpa sodium bicarbonate. This will make Ciner Group, which controls 74% of Eti Soda and 100% of Kazan Soda, the third or fourth largest soda ash producer in the world - depending on expansions that take place elsewhere in the meantime.
