The “Jinhua Furnace” developed by Zibo Qilu Yihua was selected as one of the major projects for the conversion of old and new growth drivers in Shandong’s second batch. Author/Source: Jinhua Furnace; Date: September 24, 2020; Page views: 6. Recently, the Office of the Leading Group for the Construction of the Comprehensive Pilot Zone for the Conversion of Old and New Growth Drivers in Shandong Province issued a notice announcing the list of preferred projects in the second batch of major projects for this conversion effort in 2020. A total of 127 projects made it onto the list. The list includes nine high-end chemical projects: the 3×75,000-ton-per-year epichlorohydrin green circular economy project (Phase I) by Qingdao Haibay Chemical Co., Ltd.; the green disinfectant and cleaner production project by Qingdao Sidery Disinfection Technology Co., Ltd.; the technical renovation project for a 45,000 Nm³/h syngas plant at Zibo Qilu Yihua; the project to establish a production system capable of processing 10,000 tons of waste lithium-ion battery cathode materials per year at Yantai Jinkun New Materials; the integrated project by Yantai Wanhua Chemical Group to produce 480,000 tons of bisphenol A annually; the relocation project of an 80,000-ton-per-year propylene oxide plant coupled with the production of 80,000 tons of epichlorohydrin per year at Shandong Changyi Haineng Chemical Co., Ltd.; the Guobang Health Industry Park project by Shandong Guobang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.; the 50,000-ton-per-year CPE production project at Weifang Yaxing New Materials Co., Ltd.; and the new project by Shandong Genyuan to produce 50,000 tons of 1,3-cyclohexanedione annually. The notice requires that for projects currently under construction, efforts should be made to accelerate construction and ensure their early completion and commissioning; for newly initiated projects, preparatory work must be expedited, and all conditions for commencement should be fulfilled to guarantee that all such projects start within the year. The notice calls for increased support for the key elements required for high-priority projects, further improvement of the mechanism that ensures these elements are provided alongside the projects themselves, differentiated and targeted supply of production factors, greater efforts to utilize existing resources and tap their potential, encouragement of the use of standardized land supply methods, and improved efficiency in resource allocation. Strengthen the connection between projects, banks, and enterprises, and make effective use of the funds for transitioning from old to new drivers of growth. The 45,000 Nm3/h (CO+H2) syngas production unit at Yangmei Qilu Yihua utilizes the water-cooled wall waste boiler gasifier technology developed by Beijing Qingchuang Jinhua Technology Co., Ltd. (Jinhua Furnace 3.0). The project uses one operating unit and one standby unit, with a gasification pressure of 4.5 MPaG, and a total gas flow rate of 45,000 Nm3/h (CO + H2). The construction site is located in Linzi District, Zibo City, Shandong Province. It is planned to be put into operation in 2021.
