Latest Progress on Yitaining Neng’s 500,000 tons/year FTO alkanes fine separation project Author/Source: Modern Coal Chemical Industry Date: April 17, 2020 Clicks: 12. A few days ago, the technical renovation project for Yitaining Neng’s 500,000 tons/year FTO alkanes fine separation project, carried out by Sanhua Jian of China National Chemical Engineering Corporation, saw intense activity. The project is located in the Jintai Fine Chemical Park of the Duguitala Industrial Park in Hangjin Banner, Ordos. It represents a key technical renovation project aimed at enhancing the production capacity of Yitaining Neng Fine Chemical Co., Ltd. The construction scope of Sanhua Jian includes civil engineering, equipment installation, tower modification, steel structures, electrical and instrumentation systems, as well as anti-corrosion and insulation work. Due to the impact of the pandemic, the project timeline originally set at 78 days under the contract was reduced to 38 days. With a tight schedule and heavy workload, since work began in April, Sanhua Construction has adhered to the principles of putting safety first and prioritizing service. It has carried out thorough planning, made rational arrangements for human resources and materials, established a reverse scheduling plan, and swiftly mobilized efforts to ensure that the project progresses in an orderly manner, meeting quality and quantity standards as well as the scheduled deadlines, so as to complete the project on time by May 8th. The Itaening 500,000 tons per year FTO alkanes fine separation project has a design capacity of 150,000 tons each for n-alkanes and isomerized alkanes. It is the world’s first facility to utilize molecular sieve adsorption for the separation of alkanes produced via FTO synthesis, and it currently boasts the highest production capacity of its kind in the world. The completion and commissioning of this project have reversed China’s long-term reliance on imports for heteroalkane products, and it also marks a new milestone for China’s high-end solvent oils.
