According to a report from Sinochem New Network, recently, three standards in the field of new technologies and new products, including GB/T 45820-2025 \"Turbine Compressors for Petroleum Refining Units\", were issued and put into effect. These standards were developed under the leadership of Shenyang Gear Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Shenyang Gear). These are the first set of product-based **standards** in the field of petrochemical turbine compressors in China. This series of standards establishes the classification, technical requirements, testing methods, inspection rules, packaging, transportation, and storage of turbine compressors, and provides detailed methods for evaluating the mechanical properties of compressors ； It specifies the requirements for the automatic control and remote monitoring of compressor units, and defines the automation features at various stages throughout their lifecycle, including automatic sensing, automatic control, monitoring and diagnosis, interconnection and integration, as well as digital design and delivery. At the same time, the standard provides detailed guidance on test methods for turbine compressors and methods for calibrating their aerodynamic performance, as well as guidelines for adjusting efficiency based on the equipment’s operating time and degree of degradation. Compared to international standards such as API, the temperature of the bearing shells under this standard is optimized by more than 5% compared to the API limits, resulting in an improvement in the overall efficiency of 2% to 5%. Previously, the manufacturing process of turbine compressors in our country primarily followed international standards; some of these requirements failed to meet the goals of energy savings and consumption reduction. There were also certain risks associated with ensuring safe, stable operation over long periods of time at full load without interruptions, which hindered the implementation of the policies related to innovation and development. The group makes full use of the role of its leading enterprises, working together with key industry players and research institutions to systematically analyze the technical expertise and development trends of industry leaders. It determines the directions for drafting and developing various standards for turbine compressor products in the fields of \"new technologies and new products\", thereby promoting industrial upgrading at the quality level. After going through stages such as standard drafting, solicitation of opinions, review, and approval submission, the group completed a total of 6 **standards by June 2025, which were approved for release. To date, SHENGU has led or participated in the development of 2 international standards, **80 national standards, and 94 industry standards.
