Issues with gas supply for remote gasification islands
Thread Content
As the title suggests, qualified feed gas (hydrogen and nitrogen) is supplied by a remote (3 km away) gasification plant; only ammonia and urea production units are installed within the factory complex. I would like to know what production challenges might arise from this operating mode
In some mature industrial parks (such as the Nanjing Chemical Industrial Park and the Shanghai Caojing Chemical Industrial Park), the gasification island model operated by such third-party suppliers has been very successful.
Is there long-distance pipeline transportation of syngas?
One can go and see for themselves the Nanjing Chemical Industry Park; not only is syngas transported over long distances via pipelines (Chengzhi Chemical Company), but hydrogen can also be delivered over a distance of 40 kilometers (Yangzi Petrochemical). Can hydrogen be transported over long distances? https://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-2639122-1-1.html (Source: Haichuan Chemical Industry Forum)
It exactly answers the question you asked. You can contact the Syngas Workshop of Yangzi Petrochemical’s Aromatics Plant (coal-based syngas, hydrogen) to ask any questions you may have. 【HaiChuan – Insights from Other Sources】Sales of hydrogen products via pipeline transportation https://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-2779340-1-1.html (Source: HaiChuan Chemicals Forum)
It’s completely feasible; as long as they consider it cost-effective, pipeline transportation isn’t a problem
