Umbogintwini (L14)

Name: Umbogintwini

Umbogintwini is the production centre of Chemical Initiatives’ business. This facility, situated south of Durban, has been the home of sulphuric acid production since 1908. The current “J Plant” was designed and built by Simon Carves and was commissioned in 1974. This plant is a double absorption, four pass convertor plant and is still in operation. In 2002 a Dynawave scrubber was retrofitted to the plant to further reduce SO2 emissions and bring the operation in line with the best international emission standards. Improving operational and environmental standards at our Umbogintwini factory is a priority with ISO 9002/2000, ISO 14001 and OSHAS 18001 accreditation.

This plant is configured to produce high quality sulphur trioxide, sulphur dioxide and oleum and has a nameplate capacity of 500 tons per day of sulphuric acid.
