5 sets of 2,000-ton-class space furnaces + 1 Huayi furnace will be used! The smart factory for the Guangxi Hua Yi Energy Chemical Industry Gas Island project passed the acceptance inspection. Author/Source: Gasification World. Date: December 5, 2022. Clicks: 31. On December 1, the Manufacturing Center of Hua Yi Group organized an expert team to conduct the acceptance inspection of the smart factory for this project. Meng Qingjun, the chief engineer of Shanghai Hua Yi Energy Chemical Company, and Zhong Ming, the party secretary and deputy general manager of the company, attended the inspection meeting. At the acceptance review meeting, in accordance with the requirements of Huayi Group’s \"Digital Project Management Manual,\" the expert panel examined and approved projects such as the industrial Internet platform, the smart factory portal, production management systems, as well as the integrated design and management of smart factories; HSE-related systems; and warehouse and logistics systems. Listen to the reports presented by the project managers of various system contractors regarding the construction and implementation of the projects, as well as the explanations given by the project managers at Guangxi Huayi Energy Chemicals regarding the reports from system users. On this basis, carefully review the project construction documents and consult the contractors about the project details, completion status, and subsequent operation and maintenance. Ultimately, after thorough review by the expert panel, it was determined that the various systems in the smart factory of the Guangxi Hua Yi Energy Chemical Industry Gas Island project had complete functions and acceptable parameters; the documentation related to the construction process was complete and up to standard; knowledge transfer had been carried out successfully. All these aspects met the requirements outlined in Hua Yi Group’s \"Digital Project Management Manual\" as well as those specified in the contract. The panel unanimously agreed to approve the project for acceptance. During the acceptance review, the expert panel recognized the achievements made by Guangxi Huayi Energy Chemical in the field of intelligent manufacturing. At the same time, it is hoped that the company will further improve its functions and enhance its operation and maintenance capabilities. It should continue to focus on improving data accuracy, unlocking the value of data, and leveraging digital technologies to drive improvement. By constantly summarizing the outcomes of various projects, the company can develop experiences that can be used as a reference for other companies within the group, thus serving as a model to be followed. In September 2022, the ethylene glycol unit of the industrial gas island project at Guangxi Hua Yi Energy Chemical Co., Ltd., which was EPC-general contracted by Donghua Technology, passed a 72-hour rigorous test and met the performance requirements specified in the contract, thus succeeding in the assessment. The ethylene glycol unit of the industrial gas island project at Guangxi Huayi Energy Chemical Co., Ltd. utilizes the company’s own technology for producing ethylene glycol from syngas; this represents the first time that this technology has been put into practical use. The products generated can supply polyester-grade ethylene glycol to support the polyester industry of CNPC’s Guangxi petrochemical complex, as well as be used to produce high-value PET products in conjunction with PTA (pure terephthalic acid). Driving in August 2021. Once put into operation, the device can operate for long periods of time, with all operational parameters meeting or exceeding the design values. Its manufacturing technology and process quality are at an advanced level in China, it generates little waste, and is environmentally friendly. At the same time, the device design features high-level automated control, offering convenient and intelligent operation as well as safety and reliability. After the project was put into operation, the ethylene glycol plant operated stably over long periods of time, achieving good economic benefits. This project is of great significance for achieving integrated circular economy in the industrial park, stimulating the development of related productive and domestic service markets in the surrounding area, promoting rapid growth in the Beibu Gulf Economic Zone, and accelerating the achievement of the goal of building a petrochemical industrial park worth 100 billion yuan. The Guangxi Hua Yi Gas Island/Syngas Comprehensive Utilization Project utilizes 5 sets of 2,000-ton-class space furnaces plus 1 Hua Yi furnace for gas production, generating 300,000 m3/h of hydrogen, along with 1 million tons per year of methanol, 200,000 tons per year of ethylene glycol, 500,000 tons per year of acetic acid, and 22,500 tons per year of sulfur recovered. The project started production on June 15, 2021; qualified methanol was produced on June 19, qualified acetic acid was produced on June 25, and qualified polyester-grade ethylene glycol was produced on August 25.
