2024: A year of blooming flowers and joy on the forum **********************【Ten Years of Progress in Chemical Equipment】Continuous updates and summaries available; feel free to join the discussions at https://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-3576046-1-1.html (Source: Haichuan Chemical Forum Website) ***************** Recently, the world’s largest ethanol production project – the 600,000 tons per year ethanol production facility operated by Anhui Carbonxin Technology Co., Ltd. – was successfully brought online, producing high-quality ethanol. This achievement indicates that China’s independent research and development capabilities in converting coal-based methanol into clean energy in the form of ethanol are now at the world’s leading level. It holds great significance for advancing the coal chemical industry toward higher standards, greater diversity, and lower carbon emissions. In this project, 220 pieces of equipment provided by the Beijing Institute of Aerospace Propulsion, including torches, slag crushers, safety valves, breather valves, and flame arrestors, were successfully applied as key devices for emergency gas discharge from the combined facility, slag crushing, overpressure protection for pipelines and storage tanks, and fire prevention. These devices provided a reliable guarantee for the successful commissioning and stable operation of the combined facility, contributing the power of aerospace technology to the smooth operation of the world’s largest ethanol project! In October 2023, the Beijing Aerospace Power Research Institute won a contract for a super-high pressure pilot-operated safety valve project for an offshore platform owned by Offshore Oil Engineering Co., Ltd. This marks the second time that the institute’s super-high pressure safety valves have been used in offshore platforms, following its breakthrough in breaking foreign monopolies and entering this field for the first time in August 2021. Due to the extremely stringent technical requirements, currently only imported products and those developed by the Beijing Aerospace Power Research Institute are used in the field of ultra-high pressure safety valves for domestic offshore platforms. Compared to its first entry into the offshore platform market, Beijing Aerospace Power Research Institute won more contracts this time for ultra-high pressure safety valves used in offshore platforms, with a wider range of specifications. This win further expands the market share of ultra-high pressure safety valves in this field, enhancing China’s ability to develop and control such valves for offshore platforms.

At the beginning of the new year in 2024, the Safety Valve Division of the Beijing Institute of Aerospace Propulsion received a notice of winning a bid for pilot safety valves and atmospheric release valves for primary steam in a high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear power plant. To date, the division has successfully secured orders for multiple segments related to safety valves for key positions in this project, achieving a significant breakthrough in terms of obtaining complete sets of orders for safety valves used in high-temperature gas-cooled reactors; the total value of these contracts exceeds 60 million yuan. Going forward, the department will accelerate the improvement of the quality assurance system to ensure the successful acquisition of necessary qualifications. Adhering to a work style of \"strictness, prudence, meticulousness, and practicality\", it will carry out its tasks thoroughly, meticulously, and in a timely manner, so as to complete the project delivery successfully.
Recently, the 600,000-ton/year ethanol production facility as part of Anhui Carbonxin Technology Co., Ltd.’s methanol comprehensive utilization project – the world’s largest ethanol production project – was successfully commissioned for the first time, producing high-quality ethanol. This achievement indicates that China’s independent R&D capabilities in converting coal-based methanol into clean energy ethanol are at the world’s leading level, and it holds great significance for advancing the coal chemical industry toward higher quality, greater diversity, and lower carbon emissions.
