Let’s give praise and encouragement to the achievements made in China’s chemical engineering technology and equipment; your participation in discussions is the greatest encouragement. **********************【Ten Years of Progress in Chemical Engineering Equipment】Regular updates and summaries are available – feel free to join the discussions: https://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-3576046-1-1.html *****************China’s first 80,000-class air separation compressor has been put into operation, reducing carbon emissions by 44,000 tons per year. March 21, 2025 – Recently, China’s first 80,000-class air separation compressor unit, developed jointly by Zhongke Fuhai Technology Co., Ltd. and Shengli Blower Group, was successfully brought online. This equipment will be used to supply oxygen and nitrogen to the 600,000-ton synthetic ammonia/800,000-ton urea production facility of Henan Jinkai Group’s Yanhua Chemical Plant. It represents a significant breakthrough in China’s field of large-scale low-temperature equipment, filling the market gap for domestically produced air separation compressors of this capacity. The Battle to Break Through: Fifteen Years of Effort to Create This Equipment. Wang Liqiang, the chief engineer at Shen Gu Group, stroked the exterior of the machine unit and said with emotion, \"We have developed 7 different versions of the key impeller for this equipment.\" "Behind the impeller with a diameter of 2.3 meters lies the result of over 200 aerodynamic simulation experiments. It is this breakthrough that has increased the efficiency of the units by 12% compared to imported equipment, while reducing energy consumption by 15%-20%. Zhang Wei, the project’s chief commander, revealed: “It took only 18 months from design to delivery, which is 40% shorter than the usual timeline for foreign companies.” "Behind this \"Chinese speed\" is a comprehensive R&D system covering capacities from 20,000 to 120,000 units, developed by SHENGU; its electric-drive unit with a capacity of 110,000 units has been operating stably for 16,000 hours, breaking through the technical barriers posed by foreign companies in the field of ultra-large-scale units. Green Engine: Cutting-edge technology that saves 20,000 tons of standard coal per year. The Jin Kai project utilizes advanced gasification and purification technologies; once completed, it will save nearly 20,000 tons of standard coal per year in terms of energy consumption, while also reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 44,000 tons – offering both economic and environmental benefits. The compression units developed by SHENGU Group possess complete independent intellectual property rights. They feature a wide operating range and stable performance, capable of meeting requirements in the 20,000–120,000 class. Among them, the electric-driven units of the 110,000 class have been successfully put into commercial use, with technical specifications reaching international advanced levels. Through continuous optimization of impeller technology, the aerodynamic efficiency of the units has been significantly improved, resulting in energy consumption that is 15%-20% lower than that of traditional equipment. Additionally, thanks to shorter delivery times and cost advantages, it offers customers better value for money.
