The kick-off meeting for the process package development and the design initiation meeting for the 200,000 tons per year oxalate production facility via ester hydrolysis at Ningxia Kunpeng Clean Energy Co., Ltd. were held in Ningdong. Author/Source: Baoli New Energy. Date: 2020-08-06. Clicks: 15. In line with the development plans of Ningxia Kunpeng Clean Energy Co., Ltd., and in order to make better use of the company’s industrial and resource advantages, it signed a \"Technology Transfer Contract for the 200,000 tons per year oxalate production facility via ester hydrolysis\" with Tianjin University. The company adopted Tianjin University’s industrial technology for the continuous hydrolysis and crystallization of dimethyl oxalate to produce oxalate, in order to build such a production facility. On July 31, the kick-off meeting for the oxalic acid process package and the design initiation meeting were held at the project site of Ningxia Kunpeng Clean Energy Co., Ltd.; the meeting was chaired by Chief Engineer Zheng Kang. Huang Bin, General Manager of Kunpeng Clean Energy Co., Ltd., attended the meeting, along with over 20 others from the company’s technical department, project department, Tianjin University which is responsible for preparing the process packages, Hualu Engineering Technology Company as the engineering design firm, and China Tianchen Engineering Company as the overall project management unit. This project uses dimethyl oxalate (DMO), an intermediate product from the ethylene glycol production process, as raw material to produce oxalic acid through processes such as hydrolysis, drying, and packaging. This approach helps to enrich the company’s industrial chain and product portfolio. It plays a significant role in driving the industrial transformation and upgrading of the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region and the Ningdong industrial zone, as well as in facilitating the shift from traditional to modern forms of production. It is also crucial for fostering the development of modern coal chemical, fine chemical, and polymer chemical industries, and it contributes greatly to the advancement of these industries toward higher levels of sophistication. This project is constructed within Ningxia Kunpeng Clean Energy Co., Ltd., located near the ethylene glycol plant, ensuring reliable supply and convenient use. The oxalic acid project can rely on the existing comprehensive utility and auxiliary facilities within the plant, thereby reducing capital investment. This project is planned to be completed and put into operation simultaneously with the ethylene glycol project under construction.
