10.1 Definitions
10.1.1 Installed Plant Capacity
The maximum rated output of a plant under specific conditions designated by the manufacturer. The
installed capacity is usually indicated in units of tonnes on a nameplate physically attached to the
plant.
10.1.2 Process
A process is a combination of unit operations used in the manufacturing of petrochemicals to
change the composition of chemicals.
10.1.3 Technology
Technology is referred to as a technical process used in the petrochemical industry, which is
developed by a specific business entity.
10.2 Abbreviations
MMTPA – Million Metric Tonnes per Annum
CAGR - Compounded Annual Growth Rate
10.3 GlobalData’s Methodology
GlobalData’s dedicated research and analysis teams consists of experienced professionals with
marketing, market research and consulting backgrounds in the petrochemical industry and
advanced statistical expertise.
GlobalData adheres to the codes of practice of the Market Research Society (www.mrs.org.uk) and the
