The first oxygen production unit of Shenhua Yulin’s 3×100,000 Nm3/h oxygen generation project was successfully completed. Author/Source: Date: April 22, 2019. Clicks: 4. On April 9, the first oxygen production unit for Shenhua Yulin’s three 100,000 Nm3/h oxygen generation projects, supplied by Hangyang Co., Ltd., was completed. As of now, the foundation for the air-cooling island at the project site is under pouring, the roof structure of the compressor building is about to be installed, and formwork scaffolding with high supports is being set up for the foundation slab of the compressors inside ； Equipment such as the air-cooled tower and molecular sieve outside the cold box has also been lifted into place, and piping work on the air-cooled tower has begun. It is understood that work on all three cryogenic tanks has been completed, including the assembly and installation of the tank panels and ladder platforms. The installation of columns and heat exchangers inside the tanks has also been finished, and the pre-fabrication and cleaning of internal pipelines are nearing completion; the pre-fabricated pipelines are being installed in the tanks one after another to prepare for the subsequent piping work in these tanks. In November 2017, Hangyang Co., Ltd. signed contracts with Shenhua Yulin Energy Chemical Co., Ltd. and Shenhua Materials Group Company for the design, supply, and maintenance of three 100,000 Nm3/h air separation units as part of the Shenhua Yulin Circular Economy Coal Comprehensive Utilization Project (Phase 1). This was another collaboration between Hangyang and these companies, following its provision of six 100,000 Nm3/h air separation units for Shenhua Ningxia’s 4 million tons per year coal indirect liquefaction project in 2013. To date, Hangyang has supplied 16 large-scale air separation units to Shenhua, with a total oxygen production capacity of 1.26 million m3/h. In April 2018, the contract signing ceremony for the EPC general contracting of the air separation unit design, procurement, and construction for the Shenhua Yulin Circular Economy Coal Comprehensive Utilization Project (Phase I) was held at Hualu Engineering Technology Co., Ltd. It is reported that the first-phase of the Shenhua Yulin Circular Economy Coal Comprehensive Utilization Project is located in the Qingshui Industrial Park in Yulin City. It serves as a preliminary phase of the Shenhua Yulin Circular Economy Coal Comprehensive Utilization Project (CTC Project). With a total investment of 15 billion yuan, the project includes facilities for producing 1.8 million tons per year of methanol and 400,000 tons per year of ethylene glycol. Once completed and put into operation, it will play a crucial role in optimizing the mode of economic growth, improving the industrial structure, promoting the comprehensive utilization of resources, and driving regional economic development.
