Kaixiang Fine Chemicals: Circulating water residual pressure power generation project successfully connected to the grid. Author/Source: Henan Petrochemical News Network. Date: 2019-07-12. Clicks: 156. On July 8, reporters learned from Kaixiang Fine Chemicals of Henan Gas Group that the company’s circulating water residual pressure power generation project has been successfully connected to the grid for power generation; currently, all the data indicators related to the generators are normal, indicating that another project aimed at comprehensive resource recycling by this company has been successful. In recent years, the company has accelerated its efforts in pursuing circular transformation, and this recirculated water waste-pressure power generation project is one example of that. It is reported that the average total flow rate of the company’s recycled water reaches 24,000 cubic meters per hour, and part of this energy has high value for utilization. Following thorough preliminary analysis, the company added 6 turbine generators to its circulating water system, converting some of the excess pressure into electrical energy; this process has no adverse effect on the overall production process. It is estimated that 6 generator sets can produce 6.22 million kWh of electricity per year, saving 4.36 million yuan in electricity costs and 825 tons of standard coal per year. Not only that, but the company has also implemented various projects for circular and comprehensive utilization, such as comprehensive recovery and treatment of waste sulfuric acid, recovery of fusel oils, and exhaust gas purification. These efforts not only enable circular development and comprehensive utilization but also generate economic benefits worth tens of millions of yuan each year. Next, the company is also actively planning a series of green, cost-effective, and circular projects, including the production of calcium sulfate whiskers from carbide slag and the production of calcium oxide from carbide slag. “In accordance with the requirements of the central and provincial authorities, we have formulated a three-year implementation plan for green and circular development. Through a series of technological upgrades and projects, we strive to achieve the comprehensive recycling of various resources, thereby turning the specific goals of sustainability, economic efficiency, and circularity into reality. ”A relevant official from the company explained.
