In the first quarter of 2022, Shaanxi Chemical’s total production volume met 132% of the planned target, representing an increase of 24,000 tons compared to the same period the previous year； Operating revenue reached 118% of the planned target, with an increase of 670 million yuan compared to the same period last year ； The profit target was achieved at 187% of the planned level, resulting in an increase in profits of 440 million yuan compared to the same period last year ； The interest-bearing debt decreased by 1.65 billion yuan, successfully fulfilling the growth stabilization goals for the first quarter and delivering solid results, thus achieving a strong start to the year. In the first quarter, urea production increased by 17,900 tons on a year-on-year basis, phosphate ammonium products saw an increase of 700 tons, 1,4-butanediol production rose by 3,700 tons, and poly**furan production increased by 1,500 tons. All four types of products surpassed their highest levels recorded in the same period of the previous year. The security situation is showing steady improvement. Security is a prerequisite and foundation for the high-quality development of enterprises. The company has introduced the \"Eight Rules for Ensuring Safety in Hazardous Operations\" to strengthen on-site supervision, and carries out regular education using accident case studies as well as online safety training, thereby fostering a strong culture in which \"everyone is responsible for safety, safety is taken care of by all, there are those who oversee safety, and individuals are accountable for their own safety.\" Environmental protection efforts are steadily improving. Environmental protection is the lifeline for a company’s sustainable development. The company adheres to equal emphasis on energy conservation, emission reduction, and ecological protection, carrying out environmental upgrades to ensure that waste gases, liquids, and solids are discharged in compliance with standards and are utilized comprehensively. In terms of wastewater treatment, wastewater is recycled; the recycled water from the production process, boiler effluents, and fresh water obtained after wastewater treatment are recovered and reused after going through a reclaimed water system and nitrogen treatment. In terms of waste gas treatment, VOC leakage detection and repair are carried out on a regular basis in accordance with relevant standards, and a series of modifications such as the recovery of acetylene off-gases are implemented to achieve reduced emissions and the sustainable use of resources. In terms of solid waste disposal, efforts are focused on the resource utilization of solid waste such as ash from gasification filters and phosphogypsum. The construction of hazardous waste storage facilities is being carried out in an orderly manner, with the goal of achieving standardized, resource-based, and harmless treatment of solid waste. Production operations are steadily improving. Output is the foundation for a company’s survival, and maintaining stable and high levels of production is the most effective way to save energy and increase efficiency. The company benchmarks itself against industry leaders, implements strict controls over process safety, focuses on hourly production rates, maintains a balanced supply of water, electricity, and steam in the system, and continuously optimizes the operation of its production systems. Technology projects are advancing steadily; technology is the driving force behind corporate development. Fully advance the progress of over 70 projects. Among them, the ammonia synthesis efficiency improvement project led by the company will be integrated into the system after the major system maintenance, and it is expected that the daily output of ammonia synthesis will reach a new high again. The optimization and upgrading of the BYD device to improve its efficiency is in full swing; it is expected to be ready for trial operation by June. At that time, BYD’s production capacity will increase significantly. The BDO production system will no longer be affected by the need to replace catalysts, allowing for continuous operation at high loads over extended periods, which will further boost production capacity. The projects to upgrade equipment in the urea production process, solar power generation, and industrial-grade phosphoric acid production are progressing in an orderly manner. The company’s core competitiveness has improved significantly, and its driving force for development continues to grow.
