From the First Design Institute to the Ninth Design Institute, each has its own characteristics and areas of expertise. These design institutes have now been reorganized into engineering companies: Tianchen Engineering Company (the First Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry), Tianjin; Huatai Engineering Company (the Second Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry), Taiyuan; Donghua Engineering Company (the Third Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry), Hefei; Wuhuan Engineering Company (the Fourth Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry), Wuhan; Sinopec Ningbo Engineering Company (formerly the Lanzhou Design Institute of Sinopec, the Fifth Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry), Ningbo; Hualu Engineering Company (the Sixth Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry), Xi’an; Sinopec Nanhua Design Institute (the Seventh Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry), Nanjing; Chengda Engineering Company (the Eighth Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry), Nanjing; CNPC Northeast Design Company (formerly the design institute of Jihua Group Corporation, the Ninth Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry), Jilin. In terms of capabilities in nitrogen fertilizer design, Tianchen, Wuhuan (with its nitrogen fertilizer design center located within the company), and Chengda belong to the top tier. Huatai excels in coking, Donghua in water treatment, and Hualu in fine chemicals. Ningbo and Jilin have shifted their focus to the petrochemical industry, while Nanjing seems to be experiencing a decline in performance. Institute 1 and Institute 3 possess strong capabilities in titanium dioxide design; Institute 3 was responsible for the design of the three main processes involved in the production of titanium dioxide via the chlorination method in Jinzhou: purification, oxidation, and post-treatment. Nanhua Design Institute was originally the national center for sulfur and phosphorus-related design; designing phosphoric acid fertilizers was its strength. In recent years, it has also shifted its focus to the chemical industry. Dada Engineering Company is the strongest among the original nine design institutes – it not only possesses qualifications for chemical engineering design but also for power plant design ; Currently, Tianchen, Wuhuan, Huanqiu, and Hualu are making rapid progress in the field of coal chemical industry. Wuhuan and Huanqiu are both engaged in the design of coal-to-olefins projects (with capacities of 5,000 tons per day of methanol and 500,000 tons per year of propylene, etc.), while Tianchen and Hualu have designed multiple methanol projects with capacities of 300,000 tons per year and 600,000 tons per year. In addition, Hualu also possesses military engineering design qualifications. Huatai has strong capabilities in coking and has completed a project for producing methanol from coke oven gas; it is understood that the company is working on a project to produce 1.2 million tons per year of dimethyl ether. Donghua Company possesses strong capabilities in sulfuric acid, phosphate fertilizers, and titanium dioxide, and it has also made progress in coal chemical and petrochemical projects. Sinopec’s three strongest engineering companies: Sinopec Engineering Company (SEI), located in Beijing ; Sinopec Luoyang Engineering Company (abbreviated as Luopaike) ; Sinopec Shanghai Engineering Company (SSEI) ; PetroChina’s engineering company: China National Heavy Machinery Corporation (HQCEC), located in Beijing ; CPE Engineering Design Company has 8 branch offices in locations such as Beijing and the southwest region, as well as 5 subsidiaries including Diwell. The First Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry (China Tianchen Chemical Engineering Company) is a veteran and highly capable institution; it currently has around 13 EPC projects under its management, boasting strong capabilities and high revenues. The Third Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry (Donghua Engineering Co., Ltd.) is an established design institute; its capabilities are decent, but not as good as those of the Eighth, First, and Fourth Institutes. Nevertheless, its standards are fairly similar. The process pipelines are designed together without clear separation. The employees of Zhongcheng Engineering enjoy high incomes, as it is the only engineering company listed in China. The Fourth Design Institute of the Ministry of Chemical Industry (Wuhuan Engineering Co., Ltd.) is a established and highly skilled institution with high incomes; it has thrived thanks to projects related to SHELL gasification.

The income is high. China Global Chemical Engineering Company is a design institute affiliated with CNPC; thanks to CNPC’s support, it has plenty of projects, but talent development is relatively weak. The income in Beijing is decent; before, there were also houses to be distributed. Sichuan Honghe Chemical Co., Ltd.: I’m not familiar with it. Shanghai Engineering Chemical Design Institute was formed by the merger of three design institutes; its predecessor was the well-known Medical Engineering Institute (which compiled chemical engineering design manuals), and its income is decent in Shanghai.Proprietary technologies of the Third Chemical Industry Design Institute (Anhui Huadong): This is a large-scale, comprehensive Class-A survey, design, and research institution directly under China Hydropower Engineering Consulting Group. It was established in Shanghai at the beginning of 1954. It is one of the earliest institutions in China to engage in surveying, designing, and researching hydropower projects. It was also among the first institutions in China to conduct research on pumped storage power stations, as well as on tidal and wind energy utilization. Historically, it was considered, together with the Beijing Survey and Design Institute, to be the “two key institutions in the north and south,” making significant contributions to the development of large and medium-sized hydropower and water conservancy projects in China. Since the reform and opening up, as its business scope has expanded, it has also made positive contributions to the development of dam safety projects and urbanization in our country. As early as the initial years of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, when hydroelectric development in the new country was still in its infancy, the East China Institute began working on the development of hydropower projects such as Huangtankou in Zhejiang – the first project of its kind for river cascade development in China – the Gutian cascade in Fujian, and the Liuxi River hydropower station in Guangdong. In the 1960s, the Xin’anjiang Hydropower Station, designed by the East China Institute, was China’s first large-scale hydropower station designed and built domestically. It can be regarded as a miracle in the history of global hydropower construction, and the construction of Xin’anjiang marked the beginning of a glorious period for the East China Institute. The Jiangxia Tidal Power Station, built from the late 1970s to the early 1980s; the Fujian Shuikou Water Power Station, the largest conventional hydroelectric power station in East China and constructed in the 1990s; and the Zhejiang Tianhuaping Pumped Storage Power Station, which has the largest installed capacity among power stations in China as well as in Asia, have all become milestones in the history of hydroelectric power development in China. The Shuikoushui Hydropower Station and the Tianhuangping Pumped Storage Power Station have respectively won the silver award, the gold award, and two gold awards for outstanding engineering survey and design at the national level. In the fields of hydropower and water resources planning, surveying, design, consulting, supervision, and general project contracting in our country, East China Institute has achieved remarkable results and produced many firsts in the nation. To date, it has undertaken the planning, surveying, and design of over 100 large and medium-sized hydropower and water conservancy projects both domestically and internationally. Seventy-five hydropower stations have been built and put into operation, or are under construction, with a total installed capacity of nearly 2,220 kilowatts. The East China Institute has also achieved remarkable results in the fields of urban construction and environmental engineering development. It has been responsible for designing a large number of large-scale public buildings, high-rise buildings, residential complexes with gardens, as well as dozens of various types of large bridges. It has undertaken projects involving over 2,000 kilometers of roads of different grades, hundreds of tunnels, five stations of Hangzhou’s subway system, and more than ten kilometers of railway tracks. Projects such as the Yanggongdi embankment along West Lake, the renovation of Hangzhou’s main urban roads, the Zhejiang Jinhua cable-stayed bridge, the Fujian Nanping Xicheng Bridge, and the comprehensive management project for Qionghai Lake and Lushan Mountain in Xichang have all become iconic municipal projects of these cities. In addition, East China Institute has also achieved remarkable results in areas such as the comprehensive management of ecological and water environments, the safe operation of dams and various infrastructure structures, EPC projects, and the supply of complete sets of equipment, making significant contributions to socioeconomic development.
