Tianchen Quanzhou PO project is expected to trial production in September 2023
It is reported that China National Chemical Tianchen Quanzhou PO project (phase I) construction has been more than half completed, is expected to be put into trial production in September 2023, by then, Quangang District will have a complete "propane - propylene - propylene oxide - polyether" carbon industry chain.
Project construction manager Wang Zhiguang said: "China National Chemical Tianchen Quanzhou New Materials Co., Ltd. invested 4 billion yuan in the 600,000 tons propylene oxide phase I project, the total land area is 1092 mu, the phase I land is 600 mu. Since the project started in July 2022, the construction team has been working on the construction line. Now 80% of the civil structure of the first phase of the project has been capped, and the equipment procurement has been basically completed."
Manager Wang continued, "Upon completion of the first phase of the project, the production capacity of propylene oxide will be 300,000 tons, and the propylene oxide process will use our green HPPO advanced process technology independently developed by Tianchen. Our products form a complete industrial chain with Guoheng Chemical in Quangang Industrial Park and Shanghai Jiahua in the downstream, contributing to the benign development of petrochemical industry in the park. After the project is started in 2023, it will realize the output value of several billion yuan, solve the employment problem of hundreds of people, and promote the economic construction of Quangang District.

China National Chemical Tianchen Quanzhou 600,000-ton PO project started construction! Independently developed HPPO technology
On the morning of July 12, China National Chemical Tianchen Quanzhou 600,000 tons/year propylene oxide project officially started construction.
It IS reported that the project covers an area of more than 1000 mu, the total investment of 7.38 billion yuan, the project is located in the Nanshan area of Quangang Petrochemical Park. The total construction period is 36 months, and a 300,000-ton/year hydrogen peroxide propylene oxide plant will be constructed in two phases, and the green production process (HPPO process) independently developed by China National Chemical Tianchen Company will be adopted.
As early as the beginning of May, the hydrogen peroxide method propylene oxide (HPPO) technology independently developed by Tianchen Company passed the scientific and technological achievements appraisal organized by Tianjin Scientific and Technological Achievements Evaluation Center. The technology uses propylene and hydrogen peroxide as raw materials, and uses a self-developed catalyst system. Compared with the traditional chloro-alcohol method, the consumption of propylene is reduced, and the amount of wastewater production and waste residue emission are significantly reduced.
