Shaanxi Jingyi Chemical’s Project for Deep Processing of Coal Tar to Produce Hydrogen from Coal – Author/Source: Huahua Network, Coal Chemicals Sector; Date: 2018-05-08; Clicks: 15. Recently, the groundbreaking ceremony was held for Shaanxi Jingyi Chemical Co., Ltd.’s project aimed at the deep processing of coal tar through multiple processes for integrated utilization, with a focus on hydrogen production from coal. This project is being carried out by the Shaanxi branch of China National Third Engineering Corporation. The coal tar deep processing and multi-product integrated utilization project of Shaanxi Jingyi Chemical Co., Ltd. is located in the Jinjie Industrial Park in Shenmu City, Shaanxi Province. It was invested and constructed by Shaanxi Hengyuan Coal and Electricity Group Co., Ltd., with a total investment of 4.69 billion yuan. It represents the first large-scale coal-based aromatic hydrocarbons production line in China to date. The project employs a hydrogenation technology that combines a fluidized bed with a fixed-bed reactor using the full distillate of coal tar. Using medium- and low-temperature coal tar as raw material, it carries out hydrocracking, naphtha catalytic reforming, and aromatic extraction to primarily produce phenolic products and benzene-based products. Construction contents: Construction of a new 1.2 million tons/year novel raw coal pyrolysis unit, a 600,000 tons/year coal tar pretreatment unit, a 40,000 tons/year defenolization and phenol refining unit, a 500,000 tons/year fluidized bed hydrocracking unit, a 450,000 tons/year fixed-bed hydrocracking unit, a 400,000 tons/year continuous reforming unit, a 240,000 tons/year aromatic extraction unit, a 40,000 standard cubic meters per hour coal-to-hydrogen unit, an 0.800 million tons/year sulfur recovery unit, a 30,000 standard cubic meters per hour hydrogen purification (PSA) unit, 3×160 t/h boilers + 2×30 MW steam-driven power generation units; generation of steam and electricity using waste gas, coal gangue, and coal slurry; as well as accompanying general layout transportation facilities, storage and transportation facilities, and production auxiliary facilities. Xue Hailong, General Manager of Shaanxi Jingyi Chemical Co., Ltd., Zhang Cheng, Deputy General Manager, and Liu Jun, Director of Beijing Huaxia Petrochemical Engineering Supervision Co., Ltd., delivered speeches respectively, wishing smooth progress in the construction of the coal-to-hydrogen project at Shaanxi Jingyi Chemical. Zhang Cheng, deputy general manager of Shaanxi Jingyi Chemical Co., Ltd., announced the official commencement of the coal-to-hydrogen project.
