On November 20, the construction ceremony for the first coke oven in Shanxi Juyuan Coal Chemical Co., Ltd.’s 3 million tons per year coke production upgrade and comprehensive utilization renovation project was held. On March 9, Nanguan Town held the ceremony for the simultaneous commencement of key transformation projects in Lingshi County in March 2020, as well as the launch of Shanxi Juyuan Coal Chemical Co., Ltd.’s project to upgrade and comprehensively utilize coal coking capacity to 3 million tons per year. Shanxi Juyuan Coal Chemical Co., Ltd. is one of the top 100 private enterprises in the coking industry. In line with the provincial policy of phasing out smaller coking plants in favor of larger ones, the company plans to utilize its existing production capacity of 1.92 million tons per year, along with an additional 1.17 million tons per year obtained through acquisitions, to build a project for upgrading and comprehensively utilizing coking facilities at the former site of Jufeng Company, with a target capacity of 3 million tons per year. The total investment in the project is 6.2 billion yuan, with a land area of 988 mu. Construction is expected to begin in January 2019 and be completed by December 2021. The project is constructed in two phases: Phase 1 involves building a coking plant with a capacity of 1.5 million tons per year, comprising 2*60 chambers (6.55-meter JL6555D ramming coke ovens), along with supporting facilities for coal preparation, dry quenching of coke, recovery of chemical products, as well as various auxiliary systems and environmental protection measures ； The second phase involves the construction of a coking plant with 2*58 coke ovens (7.3-meter SWJ73-1 top-mounted type), having an annual production capacity of 1.59 million tons of coke; this is accompanied by the construction of an LNG plant with an annual capacity of 210,000 tons, as well as plants for producing 70,000 tons of liquid ammonia and 100,000 tons of methanol per year. Once the project is fully completed and put into operation, it will generate annual sales revenue of 9.2 billion yuan, pay 600 million yuan in taxes, and create 1,300 job opportunities. At present, the project has been approved for initiation and has passed the approval process for provincial key projects; work related to site selection and environmental impact assessment is currently in progress.
