Latin America Expects Increase in Chemical Project Approvals

CORDOBA, ARGENTINA--April 20, 2021--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic had a big impact on the Chemical Processing Industry, and Latin America was no exception. In addition, the region had to cope with political and economic problems, which only made the situation worse. In 2020, only 126 capital chemical projects, worth $747.72 million (USD) had the economic approval to move on to be implemented in Latin America. In 2021, we see a significant increase in the number of projects that expect to be approved. A total of 437 capital chemical projects in Latin America are scheduled to receive funding this year, reaching a total of $3.87 billion.
