With 100,000 tons of BDO, Xinjiang Cathay Pacific will expand the coal-based fine chemical project

A few days ago, Xinjiang Guotai Xinhua Coal-based Fine Chemicals Circular Economy Industrial Park Phase II project environmental impact assessment public participated in the first public announcement.

Cathay Pacific Xinhua Coal-based Fine Chemicals Circular Economy Industrial Park Phase II produces acetylene and formaldehyde through a dry acetylene plant and a formaldehyde plant, and produces hydrogen through the methanol cracking method, and further produces 1,4-butanediol (BDO) through the acetylene aldehyde method.

After completion, it will produce 100,000 tons of 1,4-butanediol (BDO) and 1,200 tons of butanol as a by-product.

Project location: The proposed project is located in Wucaiwan Western Industrial Park, Western Industrial Concentration Zone, Zhundong Economic and Technological Development Zone, Xinjiang. It will be constructed on the reserved space at the original site of the first phase of the Cathay Pacific Xinhua project. The geographic coordinates of the center: 89°04′8.06″ east longitude; The north latitude is 44°42'46.93″.

Construction content: The project will build acetylene generator, formaldehyde device, 1,4-butanediol (BDO) device, formaldehyde cracking hydrogen production device, high-concentration salt waste liquid incineration device, evaporation crystallization device, and supporting construction of refrigeration station and foam Auxiliary facilities such as preparation station and heat exchange station.

In this project, acetylene and formaldehyde are produced through dry acetylene plant and formaldehyde plant, hydrogen is produced through methanol cracking method, and 1,4-butanediol (BDO) is produced through acetylenic aldehyde method. After completion, it will produce 100,000 tons of 1,4-butanediol (BDO) and 1,200 tons of butanol as a by-product.

Company Profile

Xinjiang Guotai Xinhua Mining Co., Ltd. is a large-scale modern coal mining enterprise invested and constructed in the Zhundong Economic and Technological Development Zone of Changji Prefecture, Xinjiang, jointly funded by Shanxi Yangquan Coal Industry (Group) Co., Ltd. and the Comprehensive Business Bureau of the Ministry of Water Resources.

Xinjiang Guotai Xinhua Mining Co., Ltd. owns a large coal field with an area of 60.22 km2 and a reserve of 2.5 billion tons of Wucaiwan No. 1 well in the Zhangnanxi mining area of the Zhundong coal field in Xinjiang, and uses it to produce clean coal energy and high value-added fine chemical products. And new materials.

The Cathay Pacific Xinhua Xunhua Economic Park project is planned to be constructed in three phases, with a total investment of about 70 billion and a total area of 15008 mu. After the completion of the park, an industrial cluster of high-tech materials, engineering plastics and energy products with high technical content, good economic benefits and broad market prospects will be formed.

Xinjiang Guotai Xinhua Chemical Co., Ltd. Coal-based Fine Chemicals Circular Economy Industrial Park Phase I project has a total investment of 11.3 billion yuan, covers an area of 4,480 acres, and employs 2,700 people. The main production devices are: 200,000 t/a methanol plant, 200,000 t/a BDO device, 60,000 t/a PTMEG device, 400,000 t/a calcium carbide device, 2×350 MW self-supplied power plant and related public and auxiliary supporting projects. This project uses Tianchi coal as raw material to produce power electricity, and Beitashan coal as coal for chemical gasification. The sub-units adopt advanced domestic and foreign production technology. The basic production process is: coal→methanol→formaldehyde→BDO→PTMEG, supporting facilities Power generation. The project started construction in April 2014, transferred to trial production on July 20, 2018, and passed the 72-hour operational performance assessment on September 29, 2018.
