Comprehensive Upgrade of Yihua’s Nitrogen Fertilizer Production Facility Using Corin Furnaces Author/Source: Date: 2017-01-05 Clicks: 48 On December 29, 2016, Corin Future Energy Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd. and Beijing Blueprint Engineering Design Co., Ltd. signed an agreement in Beijing to provide Corin CCG powder gasification technology for the Hubei Yihua Group’s Huanyi Chemical Gasification Facility and the Guizhou Yihua Gasification Facility; three Corin dry powder gasification units were to be installed as a replacement for the existing fixed-bed atmospheric pressure gasification processes. The China Chemical Industry News cited a responsible official from Hubei Yihua Group as saying that this renovation project can not only increase the adaptability of the raw coal used, but also improve the factory’s environmental performance, reduce consumption of coal and electricity, and lower the production costs of synthetic ammonia. The implementation of this project plays a positive role in helping Yihua Group’s nitrogen fertilizer industry pursue a circular economy approach, thereby enhancing the company’s market competitiveness and profitability. It is reported that Colin CCG coal gasification technology was identified as a key energy-saving and low-carbon technology by the **National Development and Reform Commission** in 2016. It features a unique top-mounted \"3+1\" downward-fired burner design, offering broad compatibility with different types of coal; it performs well in gasifying bituminous coal, anthracite, lignite, petroleum coke, and other similar coals. In 2013, the first set of Corin CCG powder gasification furnaces was successfully applied in a 500,000-ton/year ammonia synthesis project in Kaiyang, Guizhou, and operated steadily for nearly 4 years.
