==Economy==
Marysville has a very developed industrial economy. It houses a major [[Intertape Polymer Group|Intertape Polymer]] factory and [[Mueller Brass]] factory. Marysville is also home to Marysville Hydrocarbons, site of a recently completed [[ethanol]] plant near the southern city border. Marysville has a growing industrial park, which includes an auto parts (previously [[Chrysler]]) factory, an addition to the [[MOPAR]] parts distribution center. In 1973, [[Consumers Energy]] built a synthetic gas plant near Marysville Michigan. It was the first of its kind ever built. In 1973 the Marysville gas reforming plant could produce up to 100 million cubic feet of gas per day. That doubled in 1974 when a second train was brought on line, providing up to {{convert|220|e6ft3|e6m3|abbr=off}} of gas per day from 50,000 barrels/day of liquid hydrocarbon feedstock. The plant used [[natural gas liquids]] imported from Ontario via a pipeline under the St. Clair River. The gas produced was of comparable quality to natural gas. At one point, Marysville gas powered over one quarter of all Consumers Power customers in Michigan.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/98223263/|title=Detroit Free Press from Detroit, Michigan on January 18, 1976 · Page 70|website=Newspapers.com}}</ref> It also helped lessen the effects felt by Consumers Power customers during the [[1973 oil crisis]]. The plant was shut down for economic reasons in 1979.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.dleg.state.mi.us/mpsc/gas/about4.htm |title=MichPSC-About MI's Gas Industry |access-date=2017-04-11 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170411135801/http://www.dleg.state.mi.us/mpsc/gas/about4.htm |archive-date=2017-04-11 |url-status=dead }}</ref> It is now the location of Marysville Hydrocarbons, an ethanol refinery.
