About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

CPChem's joint venture Golden Triangle Polymers facility in Orange, Texas incorporates innovative emissions reduction technologies including additional equipment electrification, advanced ethane refrigeration system, and recycling of high-hydrogen fuel byproduct to ethylene furnaces to minimize natural gas purchases. The design targets approximately 25% lower GHG emissions than similar facilities. Evidence: "We have designed this new facility to use innovative emissions reduction technology and processes, including additional equipment electrification and an advanced ethane refrigeration system. Additionally, the facility aims to recycle the high hydrogen fuel by-product to the ethylene furnaces to minimize purchased natural gas, reducing emissions from combustion." — https://www.goldentrianglepolymers.com/
