Operation status of the Jinhua Furnace in 2025 and recently won projects

Thread Content

In February 2026, Qingchuang Jinhua provided an introduction to the Jinhua furnaces (including the Fupeng furnace) that were put into operation in 2025, as follows. 1. In March 2025, the gasifier of the Xinji Energy Circular Economy Joint Chemical Project was put into operation. In May, the successful filling of the first batch of large-grain urea was achieved; once the production line was fully operational, it quickly entered a phase of stable production. The Xinji Energy project utilizes three water-cooled wall direct-connected waste-heat boiler gasifiers of the Jinhua type 3.0, with two in operation and one as a backup. The gasification pressure is 6.5 MPa; the effective gas production per gasifier is 77,000 m3/h, giving a total gas production of 154,000 m3/h (CO + H2). The Xinhui Energy project utilizes Jinhua furnace coal slurry gasification, shift reaction, low-temperature methanol washing, liquid nitrogen washing, sulfur recovery, ammonia refrigeration, 15MPa ammonia synthesis, CO2 stripping for urea production, high-pressure melamine production, high-tower compound fertilizer production, and fluidized-bed compound fertilizer production technologies. It has an annual production capacity of 1.5 million tons of new type water-soluble compound fertilizers, 300,000 tons of diesel engine exhaust treatment agents, and 120,000 tons of melamine. 2. The relocation, upgrading and transformation project of Lianyungang Alkali Industry Company: On April 17, 2025, the trial production phase of this project began; on April 19, successful ignition was achieved, and by May 18, the entire production process was operational. The relocation, upgrading, and renovation project of Lianyungang Alkali Industry Company involves the construction of facilities capable of producing 1.1 million tons of caustic soda per year, 400,000 tons of synthetic ammonia per year, and 1 million tons of vacuum salt per year, along with the supporting auxiliary infrastructure. For synthetic ammonia production, Jinhua furnace gasification (three Jinhua furnaces, two in operation and one as backup), shift reaction, low-temperature methanol washing, liquid nitrogen washing, sulfur recovery, and ammonia synthesis are employed. 3. The upgrading demonstration project for the comprehensive resource utilization of materials in Xinjiang Zhongtai to produce methanol: On May 9, 2025, the Xinjiang Zhongtai project succeeded in completing the entire production process and generating qualified methanol products. The 1 million-ton per year methanol production project in Xinjiang Zhongtai utilizes the water-cooled wall waste-boiler gasifier technology for water-coal slurry developed by Beijing Qingchuang Jinhua Technology (Jinhua Furnace 3.0). Two in use and one as backup. Vaporization pressure is 6.5 MPa, and the total gas flow rate is 280,000 m3/h (CO+H2). This project features a coal feeding rate of 3,000 tons per day per furnace, making it the gasifier with the highest coal feeding rate currently in use; it has already completed a 72-hour performance test.
