en.Wedoany.com Reported - EuroChem has officially commenced operations at its sulfuric acid production plant in the city of Zhanatas, Zhambyl Region, Kazakhstan. The plant has a designed annual production capacity of up to 800,000 tons of sulfuric acid. According to the press service of the Ministry of Industry and Construction of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the project has already created jobs for 330 professionals at this stage.

The plant is part of a plan to establish a high-tech chemical cluster with an annual capacity of 1 million tons of mineral fertilizers and other products. EuroChem's total investment in this project exceeds $1 billion.

Currently, the third phase of the chemical complex is underway, with construction completion reaching 70%. The launch of all production lines is scheduled for early next year. Once the cluster reaches its designed capacity, it will significantly boost the development of the chemical industry and the agro-industrial complex of the Republic of Kazakhstan, and provide 1,200 permanent jobs.

The design, construction, and commissioning of the complex are being carried out by China National Chemical Engineering Group Corporation (CNCEC). EuroChem signed the relevant agreement with the contractor in May 2024. Previously, the first phase of the project—a phosphate mining enterprise in the Karatau Basin—had already been put into operation.
