Document Description
K2 delivers gaseous chlorine to Corteva by pressurized pipeline, for Corteva to use on demand. When K2 is shut down for maintenance or repairs, Corteva uses liquid chlorine stored onsite in railcars received from a facility located in Texas. Today, roughly 99% of Corteva's chlorine demand on the site is supplied via a dedicated pipeline by K2. The other roughly 1 % of chlorine that Corteva uses when K2 is unable to supply due to planned or unplanned downtime is shipped via railcars from Texas to the Pittsburg facility. This proposed project would eliminate the transport of chlorine via railcar.
The K2 proposed Chlorine Rail Transportation Curtailment Project includes:
• Addition of a new chlorine loading facility;
• Addition of approximately 700 ft of pipeline connecting the existing storage to the chlorine loading facility;
• A dry air supply line for offloading the tank car; and
• Addition of a vapor scrubber at proposed chlorine loading facility.
