Thirumalai Chemicals plans to build a plant in the northeastern US that makes maleic anhydride and the derivative food ingredients malic acid and fumaric acid. The Indian company says it will take advantage of low-cost butane feedstock from local shale gas. Thirumalai already produces the chemicals in India.
