Since the foundation of the company in 1961, TOYO has designed and constructed almost 100 urea plants, utilizing the Company's own technologies. It is no exaggeration to say that the history of the urea plant is the history of energy saving improvement. In the early 1980s, we established the Advanced Process for Cost and Energy Saving (ACES), which slashes the energy consumed by urea plants. Our initiatives continued to reduce energy consumption, which led to the development of an improved version of ACES, known as the ACES21 urea process. Compared to 0.93 ton of steam and 140 kWh of electricity using the previous processes, the new process consumes only 0.43 ton of steam (53% reduction) and 118 kWh of electricity (16% reduction) to produce one ton of urea. This has enabled significant energy saving to be achieved and helped to reduce CO2 emissions.![]() TR-C1 and TR-D process: Toyo’s previous process |

TOYO has established the most energy efficient process of ACES (Advanced Process for Cost and Energy Saving.) in early 1980’s. And using its own expertise, advanced technology and new thinking, TOYO has established the ACES21, which achieves energy saving and plant cost reduction with maintaining the excellent feature of ACES process such as high performance and high efficiency. ACES21 has been developed together with P.T. Pupuk Sriwidjaja (PUSRI) of Indonesia as a Cost and Energy Saving version of the ACES Process.
Reduction of construction cost (Low Elevation and Compact Layout)
- Reactor on Ground Level
- Vertical Submerged type Carbamate Condenser (VSCC)
- Simple synthesis loop and no gravity flow
Reduction of Equipment cost
- Small reactor by two stage reaction
- Less number of equipment in synthesis loop
The operation condition of synthesis section is optimized under the lower operation pressure than the previous process. As a result, a remarkable reduction in energy consumption is achieved.
Forced flow of synthesis loop circulation by ejector and no gravity flow
- Milder operating condition in synthesis loop (Less corrosion risk)
- Advanced and proven material developed by TEC for high pressure vessel
- Maintenance support service
