The 240,000-ton coal-based ethylene glycol plant in Ordos is set to begin operations. Author/Source: Date: 2017-03-06. Clicks: 4. On March 3, a meeting was held at the Ordos Dali Industrial Park to discuss the issues associated with the progress of Inner Mongolia Yigao Coal Chemical Technology Co., Ltd.’s 240,000-ton ethylene glycol project, as well as matters related to the commencement of construction, in order to accelerate the project’s development. It is reported that the project is scheduled to begin construction in March 2017. The scheduling meeting summarized the current progress of the project, the preparations for commencement, and the work plans for the next phase. It also facilitated active discussions and exchanges regarding issues such as water quotas and project land use that arise in the course of project advancement. Gao Huaijing, Secretary of the Party Working Committee of the industrial park, explained that the 240,000-ton ethylene glycol project of Yigao Coal Chemical is a key initiative undertaken by Dali Industrial Park to push the industry forward toward downstream processes and to develop high-end, sophisticated products. It will be the first project to start construction in the park in 2017, and the park is committed to ensuring its smooth commencement. It is reported that **China Gas Inner Mongolia Yigao Coal Chemical Technology Co., Ltd.’s 240,000-ton ethylene glycol production project, with a total investment of 1.2 billion yuan, is located in the Dalu Industrial Park in Zhungeer Banner, Ordos City, Inner Mongolia. Construction was scheduled to begin in March 2017, with completion and operation set for 2019. The main product of this project, ethylene glycol, is an important basic organic raw material in the petrochemical industry, which is primarily used in the production of polyester fibers, antifreeze agents, unsaturated polyester resins, lubricants, plasticizers, non-ionic surfactants, and more. This project is an upgrade of Yigao Coal Chemical’s existing methanol plant into an ethylene glycol plant. Building on the existing methanol plant, without changing the coal handling, gasification systems, or most of the utility facilities, the existing gasification unit is used to produce syngas; the methanol synthesis process is converted to ethylene glycol synthesis. Some of the existing production units are modified, and a new plant for the purification of CO and H2, as well as for ethylene glycol production, with an annual capacity of 240,000 tons, is constructed. The project utilizes the patented technology for producing ethylene glycol from syngas developed by Shanghai Pujing Chemical Technology Co., Ltd., with the engineering design carried out by Hualu Engineering Technology Co., Ltd. Egao Company was established in June 2005; it was originally named Inner Mongolia Sanwei Coal Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. In November 2008, Egao Environmental Protection Investment Co., Ltd. acquired and restructured Inner Mongolia Sanwei Coal Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. In 2015, Egao Coal Chemical Technology (Inner Mongolia) Co., Ltd. acquired shares of Inner Mongolia Sanwei Resources Group. Currently, Egao Environmental Protection holds 70.1% of the shares, while Egao Coal Chemical Technology (Inner Mongolia) Co., Ltd. holds 29.9%.
Awaiting good news! This is likely the first industrial project for ethylene glycol to be implemented using Pujing Company’s technology. I don’t know what the theoretical material consumption is?

The 240,000 tons per year syngas-to-ethylene glycol project of Yigao Coal Chemicals commenced operation. Author/Source: Date: 2017-03-09 Clicks: 44 On March 8, 2017, a kick-off meeting for Yigao Coal Chemicals Technology Co., Ltd.’s 240,000 tons per year syngas-to-ethylene glycol project was held at the Dalu Coal Chemical Industry Base. **Chen Yongjian, Executive Director of China Gas Company Limited; city leaders Gong Mingzhu, Jin Wu, Shang Zhiqiang, etc.; and banner leaders Ma Yongfei, Sheng Geduren, Eden Bilige, Li Yincheng, Song Yan, Sun Zhigang were present. Inner Mongolia Yigao Coal Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. is a Hong Kong-funded joint venture and is the **wholly-owned subsidiary of China Gas Company Limited in China, responsible for the production of methanol from coal as well as other downstream coal chemical products. The project that is starting up this time is a facility for producing ethylene glycol from syngas at a capacity of 240,000 tons per year; the total investment amounts to 1.278 billion RMB, with completion and operation scheduled for October 2018. EGO’s 240,000 tons per year synthetic gas-based ethylene glycol production project is the first project to commence operations in Ordos City following the cooperation discussion meeting held on February 27th between Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and central state-owned enterprises, as well as the first new project to start construction in Zhungeer Banner in 2017. The commencement of EGAO’s 240,000 tons per year synthetic gas-based ethylene glycol production project is of great significance for accelerating the deep processing of coal, expanding downstream products, fostering industrial clusters, developing parks worth hundreds of billions of yuan, and promoting transformational development.
