This industrial park is situated about 65 km west of Korla City, the capital of Bayingolin Mongol Autonomous Prefecture in Xinjiang. 　　Project Overview: This is a new project, with an approved total investment of approximately 19.912 billion yuan. This project uses heavy oil and coal as raw materials, and employs co-processing technology of oil and coal to produce clean gasoline, diesel, p-xylene, benzene, propane, butane, and other products. The production facilities include systems for processing raw coal and crude oil, slurry-bed hydrogenation, hydrocracking, aromatic compound processing (including pre-hydrogenation, continuous reforming, aromatic extraction, disproportionation and alkylation, isomerization, and xylene distillation), isomerization, coal-to-hydrogen production (including gasification, shift reaction, acid gas removal, and PSA hydrogen purification), PSA hydrogen purification, light hydrocarbon recovery, gas separation, and sulfur recovery processes (including solvent regeneration, acidic water stripping, phenol recovery, and sulfur recovery), as well as systems for shaping oil residues and air separation ； The supporting storage and transportation facilities include coal unloading and storage facilities, tank areas (raw material tank areas, intermediate tank areas, product tank areas, acid and alkali tank areas), vehicle loading and unloading facilities, train loading and unloading facilities, oil and gas recovery facilities, plant-wide warehouses, hazardous chemicals warehouses, and temporary storage areas for hazardous waste. The utility systems comprise water supply and drainage systems (water supply pump stations, circulating water plants, sewage treatment plants, rainwater collection tanks, emergency storage tanks, etc.), power supply systems (main substation, regional and unit substations), heating systems (chemical water treatment stations, condensate water stations, etc.), telecommunications and fire alarm systems, and gas supply systems (air compressor stations). The auxiliary facilities include flare systems, central control rooms, central laboratories, environmental monitoring stations, fire and gas protection stations, maintenance centers, administrative office buildings, canteens, and bathrooms. At the same time, this project plans to make use of the off-site railways and roads built as part of the park’s infrastructure, the park’s thermal power plant, the off-site water supply and drainage facilities, the park’s landfill for general solid waste, and the facilities for the disposal of hazardous waste within the park.
