On March 31, the EG cycle gas compressor in Section 176 of the ethylene glycol unit of the Guangxi Hua Yi Industrial Gas Island project, which was under the general contracting of Donghua Technology, completed a successful no-load test run on the first attempt. This made it the first unit within the entire Guangxi Hua Yi plant to undergo compressor testing, indicating that the EG unit is now ready for operational use. At present, the professional engineers in the project team are closely monitoring the operational status to ensure the stability and reliability of the system, thereby providing strong support for the successful commissioning of the ethylene glycol plant with its first batch of material fed into it. At 4 p.m. sharp, \"all preparatory work is complete, all specialized engineers and supervisors are in place, and the EG cycle gas compressor can now begin testing!\" ”The operators in the control room of the ethylene glycol unit at the Guangxi Huayi Industrial Gas Island project pressed the start button. As the equipment began to roar and the oil started circulating, the individual test run of the EG cycle gas compressor officially commenced. ““All indicators are normal, the data is excellent, and it fully meets the design requirements,” said Donghua Technology, receiving unanimous praise from the clients and staff present, amid thunderous applause. The circulating gas compressor is a core equipment in the ethylene glycol plant, and it is also one of the key steps in the preparatory work before the plant is put into operation. After the Spring Festival, in order to achieve high-standard handover of the ethylene glycol production facility, the Guangxi Huayi project team of Donghua Technology demonstrated a spirit of determination and initiative, making the commissioning of the compressors a key priority. The team leaders in charge of various aspects of the project worked closely with the owner and the supervisor to continuously improve the commissioning plan. Through joint efforts, the conditions for commissioning were gradually brought under control, and it was ultimately achieved that the compressor operated stably at its rated speed with all parameters within normal ranges, thus meeting the goal of a successful first attempt at commissioning. The project was completed successfully in accordance with the owner’s plans, and it received unanimous approval from all parties involved. At the same time, as the first unit in Guangxi Huayi’s entire plant project to undergo compressor testing and succeed on the first attempt, Donghua Technology set a good example for the commissioning of equipment at other units later on. Recently, Guangxi Huayi Energy Chemical Co., Ltd. held a special meeting on the “Three Inspections and Four Determinations” at the project department for the ethylene glycol production facility on the Huayi industrial gas island operated by Donghua Technology in Guangxi. The principal officials from relevant companies such as Donghua Technology, Sinochem Second Construction, Sinochem Sixth Construction, Shenlong Anti-Corrosion, Guangxi Er’an, Huayi Engineering, Huayi Construction, and the Chemical Industry Supervision Agency attended the meeting. The holding of the meeting marks the entry of the project into the countdown phase for handover, officially initiating the \"three inspections and four confirmations\" inspection and acceptance process prior to the formal handover. During the meeting, Ma Hengping, the project manager of Donghua Technology Guangxi Huayi, gave a report on the progress of the self-inspection work under the \"three inspections and four determinations\" framework. He said that due to factors such as the pandemic in 2020, the project schedule was under pressure; however, through the joint efforts of Donghua Technology and various subcontractors, the main construction of the project has been largely completed, and work related to equipment installation, interior decoration, and piping and instrumentation is nearing completion. At the meeting, the supervision unit highly praised the work achievements of Donghua Technology, reported on the progress of the preliminary checks under the \"three inspections and four determinations\" process, and pointed out that these measures serve as a guarantee for project quality and are effective ways to ensure the success of joint commissioning and trial operations with materials introduced into the system. After the meeting, the heads of various departments at Donghua Technology, in accordance with the requirements set forth, worked together with the relevant team from Guangxi Hua Yi Energy Chemical to conduct on-site inspections of the project site. They checked the construction quality, identified potential problems, and examined all unfinished aspects of the project one by one. To address the identified issues, tasks, responsible persons, timelines, and measures are determined on the spot. Subsequently, Guangxi Huayi Energy Chemicals reviewed the project’s documentation, and discussed with Donghua Technology the issues identified during this \"three inspections and four determinations\" process to establish timelines for making the necessary corrections. Based on the list of issues, Ma Hengping promptly organized the heads of various departments to hold discussions, in order to develop plans for rectification. He required these department heads to carry out the necessary corrections within a set time frame, to fulfill their responsibilities as assigned, and to make improvements step by step. The contract value for the ethylene glycol unit in Guangxi Huayi Industrial Gas Island project amounts to nearly 950 million yuan, with an annual production capacity of 200,000 tons of ethylene glycol. The plant produces ethylene glycol using raw materials supplied by upstream gasification and purification units; it employs reliable and advanced technologies, and takes advantage of China’s abundant coal resources or imported coal, which gives it great significance from an energy strategy perspective. All the employees of Donghua Technology’s Guangxi Huayi project team will surely overcome difficulties, exhibit a fierce work ethic, and persevere to complete the final \"last kilometer\" of the project, ensuring its delivery on schedule.
