Air Products to expand nitrogen capacity in Korea's Pyeongtaek City
LEHIGH VALLEY, Pa. -- Air Products announced it will increase nitrogen production to serve the growing demand of its existing customer in Pyeongtaek City, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea. It is Air Products’ second phase of capacity expansion to supply the semiconductor fab.
Air Products was awarded a contract in 2015 for the supply of its industrial bulk gases and bulk specialty gas supply system. The company is undertaking a multi-phase expansion project involving multiple ultra high-purity nitrogen plants, hydrogen generators and a liquefier. In this phase, a second nitrogen plant will be built.
"We are pleased to bring additional nitrogen capacity to the semiconductor fab to support its increasing demand," said Kyo-Yung Kim, president of Air Products Korea. "Our latest expansion represents Air Products' commitment to growing together with customers in the expanding region through continued investment. It will put us in an even stronger position to deliver our safe and reliable industrial gas solutions in a very cost-effective way."
