The peak-shaving renovation project for the second production unit of Datang Keshiketeng Coal-to-Gas Project was approved (for the construction of 800,000 tons per year of methanol and 400,000 tons per year of ethylene glycol). Author/Source: Date: 2017-12-08. Clicks: 12. On December 4, 2017, the peak-shaving renovation project for the second production unit of Datang International Keshiketeng Coal-to-Natural Gas Co., Ltd. was successfully approved by the Chifeng Municipal Economic and Information Commission. It is reported that the peak-shaving renovation project for the second series of production units in Datang’s coal-to-gas facility uses the purified gas from the low-temperature methanol washing unit as raw material, and produces peak-shaving products through processes such as deep cryogenic separation, PSA hydrogen purification, and methanol synthesis. The total investment in the project is 3.383 billion yuan. Once operational, it will be able to produce 800,000 tons of methanol and 400,000 tons of ethylene glycol per year, generating annual sales revenue of 2.257 billion yuan and tax revenues of 47 million yuan. Recently, the project has completed the preparation of its feasibility study report as well as the registration process for social stability risk assessment. The successful approval by the Municipal Economic and Information Commission now marks the entry of the project into its substantive phase. Project Overview (1) Project Name: Peak Shaving Transformation Project for the Second Production Unit of Inner Mongolia Datang International Kesikteng Coal-to-Natural Gas Co., Ltd. (2) Construction location: The plant site of Inner Mongolia Datang International Kesikteng Coal-to-Natural Gas Co., Ltd. (3) Construction contents: The main components of this project include a gas separation unit, a methanol plant, an ethylene glycol plant, a storage and transportation system, utility systems and auxiliary facilities, as well as supporting external system projects. Construction scale: Annual production of 800,000 tons of methanol, 400,000 tons of ethylene glycol, and 1.79 million Nm3 per day (600 million Nm3 per year) of natural gas. (4) Total investment and funding methods: The total investment for this project is 3.383 billion RMB, with 30% coming from the company’s own funds, while the remaining 70% will be financed through bank loans. (5) Construction period: 2017–2020. The Datang Keqi 4 billion cubic meters per year coal-to-natural gas project was approved by the **National Development and Reform Commission in August 2009. The project is constructed in three phases, with each phase having an annual production capacity of 1.33 billion cubic meters. The first phase of the project was put into trial operation in December 2013.
If the original methanol peak-shaving plan is implemented, we won’t end up in this passive situation now, hehe
