ARAK (NIPNA) - Iran unveiled its first domestically-produced super-heavy methanol reactor, marking a significant milestone in the country's petrochemical industry. The reactor, named R3001, was handed over to the Dena Petrochemical Project.

In a ceremony attended by various dignitaries, including Mohsen Ahmadi, CEO of the Cultural Heritage Foundation, and Farzad Mukhlas al-Imam, the governor of Markazi Province, the unveiling took place at the Arak Machinery Manufacturing Company.

These methanol production reactors, manufactured by the Arak Machinery Manufacturing Company affiliated with the Cultural Heritage Foundation, represent Iran's entry into the league of five countries capable of producing such reactors. The production not only saves millions of dollars in hard currency but also breaks the monopoly of European manufacturers, strengthens domestic expertise during times of sanctions, reduces reliance on foreign parties, and ultimately enhances the profitability of entities affiliated with the Cultural Heritage Foundation.

Ahmadi, the CEO of the Cultural Heritage Foundation, announced the commencement of the production of 24 unique and strategic methanol reactor units for the Dena and Siraf petrochemical projects in cooperation with Arak Machinery Manufacturing Company.

Expressing pride in Iran's achievement, Ahmadi stated, "The Cultural Heritage Foundation has proudly raised the flag of our country in the world. Now, the position of the Arak Machinery Manufacturing Company and, consequently, our beloved country as the fifth country capable of manufacturing these equipment in the world has been solidified."

The delivery agreement for the reactors was signed by the CEO of Arak Machinery Manufacturing Company and the CEO of Dena Petrochemical Company during the ceremony.
