On May 31, the gasifier, the core equipment of the Phase II coal gasification project at Yulin operated by China National Coal Group, which was constructed by the Northwest Branch of China Chemical Engineering 16th Construction Company, achieved successful first ignition. The equipment is operating stably, with all process parameters meeting the specified standards; the project has now entered the critical phase of final debugging. Since the project commenced, the construction team from 16th Chemical Construction has always adhered to the principles of \"quality first, safety first,\" advancing the construction work with high standards and meticulous attention to detail. Their excellent construction quality and professional management skills have earned them high recognition from the client and the general contractor. During this furnace ignition operation, the personnel at various positions on site worked closely together, followed standard procedures, and maintained precise control. The flame in the furnace burned steadily, with a gradual increase in temperature gradient. The entire process was safe, under control, and carried out in an orderly manner, allowing the planned construction tasks to be completed successfully. The total investment in the China Coal Yulin Coal Deep Processing Base is 23.888 billion yuan. It is the world’s first coal chemical project to have a carbon-neutral roadmap planned for its entire life cycle. It is also the first large-scale coal chemical demonstration project approved by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment following the implementation of China’s \"dual carbon\" strategy. The project aims to create a development model of \"developing coal, utilizing coal, and moving beyond coal,\" by establishing a full industrial chain for the deep processing of coal that transforms it from its original form to a different state. It is equipped with the world’s first coal slurry gasification unit capable of handling a coal feed rate of 3,000 tons per day; it also features the world’s largest waste boiler and steam system for coal slurry gasification. With a gasification framework measuring 105 meters in height, it represents the highest standard among similar units worldwide, offering leading technology and scale in the industry. Once the project is put into operation, it will be able to produce 2.2 million tons of methanol, 900,000 tons of high-end polyolefins, and 250,000 tons of photovoltaic-grade LDPE/EVA per year. This will help fill the gap in domestic production capacity for high-end chemical materials, reduce reliance on imports, and support the green transformation of the coal chemical industry as well as the advancement of global coal gasification technology. Next, the project department will thoroughly implement China Chemical’s \"135\" development strategy, strictly adhere to the standards regarding safety and quality, refine the plans for testing, commissioning, and project completion, and steadily advance the completion of all project milestones. Every effort will be made to ensure that the project comes online and starts operating as soon as possible, so as to make greater contributions to the group company’s efforts to build itself into a world-class innovative engineering company.
