At 14:58 on February 29th, the second turbine of the 2*105,000 cubic meters per hour separation unit in the methanol plant part of Ningxia Baofeng Energy’s project to produce 600,000 tons of olefins per year through coke gasification was successfully tested, with the construction carried out by the third branch company of China National Sixth Engineering Corporation. Baofeng Energy’s project for producing 600,000 tons per year of olefins through coke gasification involves an total investment of around 15.3 billion yuan; the project is located in Area A of the Linhe Comprehensive Project Zone within the Ningdong Energy and Chemical Industry Base. The project is mainly divided into two phases: the first phase involves the gasification of coke to produce 2.2 million tons per year of methanol, while the second phase entails the conversion of methanol into 600,000 tons per year of polyolefins; associated utility facilities are also included. The total construction period is 48 months. In October 2019, the methanol-based 600,000 tons per year polyolefin production facility was put into operation, enabling Baofeng Energy to achieve a production capacity of 1.2 million tons per year of polyolefins (600,000 tons per year of polyethylene and 600,000 tons per year of polypropylene). Liuhua Jian is responsible for the entire construction process of methanol projects. Since the outbreak of the pandemic, LiuHua Construction has always placed the life safety and health of its employees at the top of its priorities. While ensuring that the pandemic is under control, the company has maintained stable operations and production, strictly adhering to safety and quality standards, which has enabled the successful completion of this trial run on the first attempt.
