On March 17, the ceremony marking the resumption of work on major projects for the first quarter of 2022 was held in the autonomous region, along with the first regional coordination meeting for such projects. The Hami venue was located at the Southern Circular Economy Industrial Park in the Hami High-Tech Industrial Development Zone – specifically at the site of Xinjiang Zhonghe Hezhong New Materials Co., Ltd.’s project to produce 1 million tons of carboxylic acids and related integrated products per year. The project built by Xinjiang Zhonghe Hezhong New Materials Co., Ltd. to produce 1 million tons per year of carboxylic acids and related integrated products has now commenced full-scale construction. This project utilizes advanced technologies such as clean coal gasification, energy-efficient gas purification and separation, low-water-based carboxylation for the synthesis of acetic acid, and efficient sulfur recovery to produce acetic acid and acetic anhydride. Once completed, it will become the world’s leading acetic acid production facility, with the largest single-unit capacity of 1 million tons per year. On March 17, heavy machinery was at work at the construction site of Xinjiang Zhonghe Hezhong New Materials Co., Ltd.’s project to produce 1 million tons of carboxylic acids and related integrated products per year.

Shi Zhaojian, chairman of Xinjiang Zhonghe Hezhong New Materials Co., Ltd., said: “The company’s project to produce 1 million tons of acetic acid fills the gap in Xinjiang’s current lack of acetic acid production. Completion and operation are expected by July or August next year, and it will create employment opportunities for over 500 local professionals with technical skills. The second phase of the project aims to produce 1.2 million tons of methanol, with an investment of around 30 billion yuan; once operational on a large scale, the output value is expected to exceed 100 billion yuan.” ”
