New breakthroughs achieved in the treatment and utilization of fine slag from chemical gasification in Yulin. Author/Source: Gasification World. Date: 2021-03-30. Clicks: 5. Recently, the project titled “Research on the Resource Utilization of Fine Slag from Gasification for the Production of High-Efficiency Adsorption Materials”, submitted by Shaanxi Coal Group Yulin Chemical Co., Ltd., was approved for funding by the provincial department of science and technology. This project was included in Shaanxi Province’s science and technology plan for 2021. The treatment and utilization of fine slag from coal gasification have long been an environmental challenge common in the coal chemical industry. The main treatment methods currently in use include flotation, co-firing, and selective flocculation, while large-scale utilization is primarily focused on applications such as construction materials and ceramic materials. Due to the high carbon content, numerous impurities, and high porosity of coal gasification fine slag, there are many challenges associated with its treatment and utilization, including high costs, low utilization rates, immature processing technologies, and a limited range of available products. These issues constitute a bottleneck for the sustainable development of coal chemical enterprises. To address the challenges associated with the treatment and utilization of coal gasification fine slag, Shaanxi Coal Group Yulin Chemical Co., Ltd. collaborated with Xi’an Polytechnic University on the project \"Research on the Resource Utilization of Coal Gasification Fine Slag for the Production of High-Efficiency Adsorption Materials,\" in an effort to find ways for large-scale disposal and value-added use of this slag. The research on this project not only enables the effective utilization of gasification fine slag to turn waste into a valuable resource but also facilitates wastewater treatment and reduces pollution emissions. Once successful, it will represent a high-value method for the resource utilization of gasification waste, carrying positive implications for both the company and the entire coal chemical industry. Shaanxi Coal Group Yulin Chemical Co., Ltd. will continue to thoroughly implement the innovation-driven strategy, working to establish platforms for technological innovation, demonstration of new technologies and development of new industries, as well as platforms for formulating coal chemical technology standards and specifications and promoting their application. While making every effort to advance industrial technology and achieve transformation and upgrading, the company will also accelerate the collaborative research and development and adoption of new technologies, products, and processes. It will work together with well-known domestic and international enterprises as well as prestigious universities to foster the development of high-tech industries.
