How is the operation of Yongcheng Longyu Coal Chemical’s 500,000-ton methanol production facility? If anyone else knows, please share too!

I don’t know, but it seems prices have risen recently; the market should be optimistic.

The system is in operation; the heating process started last afternoon, and it is expected that the vaporizer will begin operating with feedstock on April 21

I also want to understand the situation, so I’d like to ask again: What is the coal gasification method used in Yongcheng Longyu Coal Chemical’s 500,000-ton methanol production facility?

During the operation prior to this stop, did the system encounter any issues? Or could you share some driving experiences?

It’s not clear. But the methanol industry should be seeing some recovery now. If it’s used in vehicles, it should yield very good results

The price of methanol for operating the plant this time is one factor; it’s likely that no profit will be made. However, if the equipment isn’t operated for a long time, many problems will arise. Overall, the operation went fairly smoothly, though there were some issues with the switching process

I hear that the market for methanol hasn’t seen much recovery; **policies regarding methanol-powered vehicles are under consideration, but there’s no news yet on that front. I really don’t know what will happen! How are Shell’s furnaces? A friend of mine said that there is a Shell furnace in Hunan used to produce methanol from lignite; it is operated frequently on and off, and there are some problems – I’m not sure if this is true.

Ruchi’s purification device and Topso’s synthesis equipment

It should be the parallel twin-tower synthesis method used by East China University of Science and Technology; it is an adiabatic shell-and-tube composite reactor.
