The ammonia synthesis unit at the Yun Tian Hua Shuifu plant passed the 72-hour process test successfully after the completion of its fourth major technical upgrade. After the technical upgrades, the overall energy consumption decreased by 7.2%, resulting in a reduction of 99,720 tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year. The person in charge of the Yun Tianhua Shuifu facility explained that as a result of the technical upgrades, the comprehensive energy consumption of the ammonia synthesis unit dropped from 1112 kgce/t before the upgrades to 1032 kgce/t, which is below the domestic advanced level of 1050 kgce/t. At the same time, the newly renovated central control room at the Yun Tianhua Shuifu facility was put into use, enabling interconnection of all production units within the facility. This has improved the company’s level of refined management, enhanced production efficiency, reduced operating costs, and increased the level of automation in production by over 30%. The fourth technical upgrade of the ammonia synthesis unit at the Yun Tian Hua Shuifu plant utilized KBR technology. On December 15, 2023, the synthetic ammonia plant at Shuifu Yuntianhua was shut down to carry out energy-saving and carbon-reduction upgrades, and ammonia production was resumed successfully on January 30, 2024.
