This year, my country's synthetic ammonia market has continued to fluctuate, and some events have had a certain impact on the industry. The following is an analysis of some domestic events that have a certain connection with the ammonia industry. 2016 has ended. This year, my country's synthetic ammonia market has been in a state of continuous shock, and some events have had a certain impact on the industry. The following is an analysis of some domestic events that have a certain connection with the synthetic ammonia industry:: 　　1. A deflagration occurred in the synthetic ammonia workshop of Kaifeng Jinkai Company. At about 22:51 on October 14, 2016, one of the valve inlet glands at the No. 5 compressor section 6 inlet of the compression section of the second system synthesis workshop of Henan Jinkai Chemical Investment Holding Group Co., Ltd. leaked. The leaked material was a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen, which caused a deflagration and caused damage to a lightweight roof of about 10 square meters. After the accident, the company's entire system was shut down and the air source at the accident point was cut off. At 23:15, the flame was basically extinguished and the residual gas in the pipe gradually decreased. At 23:52, the residual gas flame was naturally extinguished. No one was trapped or injured at the scene, and no equipment was damaged. Relevant city departments rushed to the scene for immediate command. After on-site inspection by the environmental protection department, there was no impact on the surrounding environment. The Municipal Work Safety Supervision Bureau has ordered Jinkai Branch to suspend production for rectification. city * * An investigation team has been set up to investigate the cause of the accident. 　　Jinlianchuang comments: The incidence of liquid ammonia accidents is extremely high every year, often causing huge losses. This leakage incident has once again drawn attention to the safety status of equipment in synthetic ammonia companies and the technical issues of operators. Synthetic ammonia companies should increase the frequency of equipment maintenance and professional training of operators to nip problems in the bud and reduce the occurrence of liquid ammonia accidents. 　　2. Danzhou Liquid Ammonia Leakage Incident At 00:07 on June 19, 2016, a liquid ammonia leak occurred in the Rubber Processing Factory Branch of the Western Industrial Park, 200 meters away from the Yangpu Interchange on the Nayang Highway in Dongcheng Town, Danzhou City, Hainan. No one was trapped at the scene. The Danzhou City Firefighting Detachment was dispatched in time to quickly resolve the danger. The accident caused no casualties or secondary disasters, and the specific cause of the accident is still under further investigation. 　　Jinlianchuang comments: Liquid ammonia leakage is extremely harmful. As a liquid ammonia manufacturer, how can we achieve safe production? First, it is necessary to follow the * * Relevant regulations require that the safety facilities and safety monitoring and control systems of liquid ammonia be monitored and inspected regularly, and regular maintenance and upkeep is carried out to ensure that the safety facilities and safety monitoring and control systems of liquid ammonia operate effectively and reliably. Second, liquid ammonia production enterprises should identify the responsible persons or responsible institutions for key devices and key parts in liquid ammonia production, conduct regular inspections on production safety conditions, and take timely measures to eliminate potential safety hazards. Third, enterprises should conduct safe operation skills training for personnel in liquid ammonia management and operation positions, so that they understand the dangerous characteristics of liquid ammonia, become familiar with safety management rules and regulations and safe operating procedures, and master the safe operation skills and emergency measures for their positions. Fourth, liquid ammonia companies should set up safety warning signs at their locations and inform people around them in an appropriate way of possible accident consequences and emergency measures. Finally, liquid ammonia companies should formulate emergency plans in accordance with the law, equip emergency rescue personnel with necessary protective equipment and emergency rescue equipment, and hold regular emergency drills. 　　3. The G20 Summit was held in Hangzhou, China from September 4 to 5, 2016. In order to ensure air quality, according to the requirements of the "G20 Summit Zhejiang Province Environmental Protection Work Plan", companies that emit pollutants such as steel, cement and chemicals are required to suspend operations. The suspension period is determined to be from August 26 to September 6. For the purpose of "West Lake Blue", the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the Yangtze River Delta Regional Air Pollution Prevention and Control Collaboration Group have deployed air quality assurance work for the G20 Summit. Nine cities including Jinan, Qingdao, Zibo, Weifang, Jining, Rizhao, Laiwu, Linyi, and Liaocheng also participated in the assurance cooperation work. 　　Jin Lianchuang Analysis: From a supply side analysis, the arrival of the G20 summit will inevitably cause some liquid ammonia plants to stop, especially companies in Zhejiang. Although there are not many companies in Zhejiang, there are many production companies in surrounding Shandong, Jiangsu and Anhui. From the demand side, some devices downstream of liquid ammonia supply products will also be shut down, and the consumption of liquid ammonia on the supply side will be reduced. ； However, agriculture is currently in the off-season and demand support is weak. However, with the gradual introduction of the compound fertilizer autumn policy, agricultural demand has a growing trend, but as far as the current situation is concerned, the demand is still flat. The downstream chemical fertilizers of liquid ammonia account for 80% of the overall downstream consumption, so the demand for liquid ammonia market has great room to increase in the later period. 　　4. Law enforcement inspection teams have carried out inspections in eight provinces and autonomous regions since June. The new environmental protection law, known as the “most stringent in history,” has been in effect for more than a year and has received widespread attention. This time the congress * * We will launch environmental protection law enforcement inspections, adhere to a problem-oriented approach, fully respond to social concerns, and highlight key points. The law enforcement inspection team is planned to be divided into five teams and will start inspections in eight provinces and autonomous regions: Hebei, Shanxi, Heilongjiang, Henan, Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan, and Ningxia starting in June. 　　Jin Lianchuang Analysis: From the more than 40 companies tracked by Jin Lianchuang, we learned that most liquefied ammonia companies have not been affected by environmental inspections. Only liquefied ammonia companies in Henan have had more parking due to environmental inspections. Some devices were originally scheduled to restart in early August, but are still waiting for restart notifications. So much parking in the Henan market did not drive the Henan market to rise significantly. 　　5. In October, the second batch of central environmental protection inspection teams stationed in Shandong to carry out environmental protection inspections. In October, the second batch of central environmental protection inspection teams stationed in Shandong to carry out environmental protection inspections. The environmental protection team first entered the southern part of Shandong. During the National Day holiday, some liquefied ammonia companies in southern Shandong were parked. On the first day after the holiday, some liquid ammonia companies in Linyi were still shut down for maintenance. The equipment restarted in mid-October and gradually shipped normally. 　　Jin Lianchuang Analysis: Linyi's external sales of liquid ammonia decreased by nearly 500 tons, and downstream procurement will extend to northern Jiangsu. On the first day after the holiday, the transaction price in the liquid ammonia market in northern Jiangsu increased by 40 yuan/ton, with mainstream shipments at 2170-2200 yuan/ton. Only a small number of companies have been shut down due to environmental inspections. Some large factories in northern Shandong are producing and shipping normally and have not been affected by environmental inspections. (Yuan Ning)
