The chemical industry is at the \"very top\" of numerous industrial chains. Since the launch of key spring construction projects, numerous chemical industry projects in our province have begun operations, creating a picture of vigorous development in this sector and accelerating the establishment of new drivers for high-quality growth. In Jilin City, the project to build an ethylene plant with an annual production capacity of 1.2 million tons at Jilin Petrochemical is in its final stages. The workers are carrying out tasks such as pipeline pressure testing, oil circulation in the compressor units, and individual unit tests. As the core unit of Jilin Petrochemical’s refining and chemical industry transformation project, this facility has an total investment of 3.729 billion yuan and covers an area of 118,600 square meters. It utilizes the CBL cracking technology and LECT separation technology developed independently by Sinopec Engineering Construction Co., Ltd.; once operational, it will be able to produce 1.2 million tons of polymeric-grade ethylene and 587,000 tons of polymeric-grade propylene per year. “The project is expected to be fully completed by April 30 this year and put into operation within the same year. ”According to Lu Siyi, the construction manager of the project management department in the eastern area of Jilin Petrochemical. Once the project is brought online, Jilin Petrochemical’s total ethylene production capacity will reach 1.9 million tons per year. Its ethylene production capacity and overall chemical manufacturing scale will be at an advanced level in China. The strategy of reducing oil production and increasing chemical production will yield significant results, resulting in an industrial layout and product structure that reflect Jilin Petrochemical’s unique characteristics and competitive advantages. Also in Jilin City, new chemical processing facilities have been erected at the site of Meiside (Jilin) New Materials Co., Ltd. The second phase of the Meiside organic amine product line project, which involves a facility capable of producing 8,000 tons per year of diglyme amine along with morpholine, is currently in the process of equipment installation. Completion is expected by June, and this facility will become the largest of its kind in China for the production of diglyme amine and morpholine, providing crucial support for the development of downstream industrial chains. The traditional chemical industry relies on major projects to drive its transformation and upgrading ； The emerging field of \"green chemistry\" is flourishing everywhere; under the backdrop of the \"dual carbon\" strategy, it gives rise to a surge in new forms of productive capacity. Not long ago, the China Energy Engineering Group Songyuan Hydrogen Energy Industrial Park – the world’s largest integrated project for green hydrogen, ammonia, and alcohol production – reached an important milestone. The main structures of the four electrolytic hydrogen production units in this project have been successfully completed, marking significant progress in the construction of this green chemical industry demonstration base. This project is a key new energy supporting facility among the first batch of large-scale hydrogen-based chemical industry demonstration projects under the \"Hydrogen-powered Jilin\" initiative in our province. With a total investment of 29.6 billion yuan, it is expected to produce 110,000 tons of green hydrogen and 600,000 tons of green ammonia/alcohols per year. Upon completion, the project will greatly promote the large-scale development of hydrogen production from renewable energy sources and green hydrogen-based chemical industries; it holds great significance for the establishment of a **-level hydrogen production base from renewable energy in western Jilin, as well as demonstration sites for diversified green hydrogen-based chemical industries. The construction site of the Shanghai Electric Jilin Taonan green methanol project in Baicheng City is bustling, with the project expected to enter the trial production phase in June this year. As one of the **first pilot projects for the on-site utilization of green electricity in hydrogen production, it will, upon operation, help establish an industrial chain that combines green renewable energy with green chemical manufacturing, providing new technical approaches and business models for Jilin to achieve large-scale utilization of green electricity. In the Beihu Development Zone of Changchun New Area, Beihu Park is gradually taking on a springtime appearance. On the land adjacent to it, the Beihu Park project of the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry under the Chinese Academy of Sciences has taken initial shape. “At present, the test building for Project 2 has reached its roof completion stage, and work is currently underway on the secondary structure, mechanical and electrical installations, as well as interior decoration. ”A relevant official from the project’s developer explained that construction on the Beihu Park project of the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, officially began in July 2024, with delivery scheduled for the end of 2026. The Beihu Park project of the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has a total investment of 900 million yuan and covers an area of 166,000 square meters. It will focus on research and development in areas such as polymer elastic materials, strategic new materials, and key light rare earth materials. Together with the main campus of the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry and the Beihu Fine Chemicals and New Materials Industry Demonstration Park in Changchun New Area, it will form an integrated R&D and transformation platform that encompasses scientific research, technological innovation, engineering applications, and industrial development. This will help to build Changchun New Area into a world-leading hub for innovative development across the entire value chain of new materials, providing strong impetus for the development of the new materials industry in our province. Projects come first; the call to action urges us forward. The development of the chemical industry affects numerous sectors and is linked to the bright future of \"Jilin Manufacturing\". Batch after batch of high-quality, long-chain, innovative, and promising chemical industry projects are being developed at full pace, continuously contributing to the growth of our province’s key industries and the emergence of new forms of productive capacity.
