Construction Begins on Phase II of Shanxi Jinyan Modern Coal Chemical Industry Circular Economy Demonstration Park / Source: Sinochem News Network Date: 2019-08-19 Clicks: 103 On August 16, construction commenced on Phase II of the Modern Coal Chemical Industry Circular Economy Demonstration Park owned by Shanxi Jinyan Industrial Group. The project will include the construction of a coking plant with an annual capacity of 2.5 million tons, along with 2×15 MW waste heat power generation units for dry quenching of coke, as well as an ethylene glycol plant with an annual capacity of 600,000 tons and an LNG production facility with an annual capacity of 300,000 tons. The image shows the site of the groundbreaking ceremony. This project integrates and combines multiple advanced domestic and international process technologies, and serves as an important part of the 10-million-ton-class new coal chemical industry park in Xiaoyi Economic Development Zone. Wen Kezhong, chairman of Jinyan Group, introduced the project details. The Jinyan 5 million tons coking circular economy park project is being constructed in two phases. Phase 1 has been largely completed, and phase 2 of the project was launched today. The construction work in phase 2 includes a 2.53 million tons top-loading coking facility that uses 7.1-meter reheat type top-loading coke ovens; accompanying facilities include dry quenching systems, waste heat recovery units for dry quenching, gas purification systems, and other facilities for chemical product recovery. There is also a project to produce 600,000 tons of ethylene glycol along with 300,000 tons of LNG, thereby enabling the effective integration of high-tech technologies with traditional industries. It is reported that once the project’s production capacity of 5 million tons is fully realized, it will become the coal chemical complex park with the largest single-capacity in our province. Its significant production capacity advantage enables an industrial layout featuring full circulation and comprehensive integration, providing strong support for the expansion of the downstream industries related to coal chemistry. Once the project is put into operation, it is expected to generate annual sales revenue of 6 billion yuan and annual profits and taxes of 700 million yuan, while also creating employment for over 1,000 people.
