EPCI (Ethylene Producers Capability Index)
The Ethylene Producers Capability Index (EPCI) is a performance metric used in the chemical industry to assess how effectively ethylene production facilities operate. Ethylene is a key building block for numerous plastics and chemicals. The EPCI evaluates factors such as production efficiency, reliability, and overall output compared to industry standards. A higher EPCI indicates a facility that performs well against its peers, suggesting it can produce more ethylene consistently and cost-effectively. This index helps companies identify areas for improvement and optimize their production processes.
