Environmental Impact Assessment Completion for the Phase-1 Completion of the 10kt/a FEP Expansion Project at Zhejiang Juhua Co., Ltd. Fluoropolymer Plant

Thread Content

On February 22, the monitoring report on the environmental protection assessment following the completion of the expansion project for a 10kt/a FEP production facility at Zhejiang Juhua Co., Ltd.’s Fluoropolymer Plant was made public. The details of the project are as follows: Project name: Expansion project for a 10kt/a FEP production facility at Zhejiang Juhua Co., Ltd.’s Fluoropolymer Plant； Construction location: Within the premises of Zhejiang Jusheng Fluorine Chemical Co., Ltd. (Note: On November 28, 2023, the fluoropolymer factory belonging to Juhua Group was integrated into Jusheng Fluorine Chemical Company; the industrial and commercial registration of that factory was cancelled on January 18, 2024, and the name of the company after the change became Zhejiang Jusheng Fluorine Chemical Co., Ltd.) ) Project investment: Actual investment of 277.46 million yuan ； Project nature: Expansion ； Planned construction contents: This project involves continuing the construction of the 5,000 t/a aqueous-phase FEP subsystem from the previously approved 10 kt/a FEP expansion project (Qu Huajian No. 32), as well as optimizing and reorganizing the production capacity and product structure of the existing FEP units. Upon completion, the FEP production capacity of Juhua Group’s Fluoropolymer Plant will be 10 kt/a, along with a 200 t/a PPVE pilot production line. Scope of acceptance: Upon on-site inspection, it was found that the enterprise has not constructed a 200t/a PPVE pilot production line; the 3FEP production line has been built but is not in use. These two production lines are not within the scope of this acceptance. Therefore, this is a preliminary acceptance for the 10kt/a FEP expansion project of the Fluoropolymer Plant of Zhejiang Juhua Co., Ltd. The acceptance criteria include the 4FEP production line and the 5FEP production line; the production capacities involved are 2000 t/a of FEP resin (biphenyl type) produced by the aqueous-phase method on the 4FEP production line, 4000 t/a of FEP resin (terphenyl type) produced by the aqueous-phase method, 1000 t/a of FEP emulsion, as well as 2400 t/a of FEP resin produced by the solvent-based method on the 5FEP production line. The acceptance capacity is 8,400 tons per year for PEP resin and 1,000 tons per year for PEP emulsion. Acceptance conclusion: The environmental protection procedures for the 10kt/a FEP expansion project at Zhejiang Juhua Co., Ltd.’s Fluoropolymer Plant are complete, and all technical documents are available ； The nature, scale, location of the project are generally consistent with the environmental impact assessment ； During the construction and operation of the project, in accordance with the relevant requirements regarding the \"three simultaneities\" principle for environmental protection in construction projects, the environmental protection facilities and measures specified in the environmental impact assessment report and the corresponding approvals have been basically implemented ； Environmental management systems and organizations were established ； No significant environmental pollution or severe ecological damage occurred during the construction process ； The results of the acceptance monitoring show that all pollutant emission indicators meet the corresponding standards, and the total amount of pollutants emitted satisfies the requirements for total emission control; there are no failure items as specified in the \"Interim Measures for Environmental Protection Acceptance upon Completion of Construction Projects\" and \"Guohuan Gui Hui Ping (2017) No. 4\". Agree that the project passes the pre-acceptance inspection for environmental protection upon completion.
