- McDermott's completion of Evonik's biosurfactant plant underscores their prowess in engineering, procurement, and construction management, enabling the production of Rhamnolipids at scale.
- This achievement not only positions Evonik as a leader in sustainable chemicals but also exemplifies a crucial step towards a greener future in industrial manufacturing.
The project positions Evonik, a specialty chemicals company, as a pioneer of high-quality, sustainable biosurfactants on a commercial scale.
The scope of the contract included engineering, procurement, and construction management (EPCM) services for a new biosurfactant plant. The engineering and procurement services were executed from McDermott's office in Brno, Czech Republic, and the construction management was performed at Evonik's site in Slovakia.
