On the morning of November 3, 2018, the largest piece of equipment for Zhejiang Petrochemical’s 40 million tons per year integrated refining and chemical processing project – the extractive tower with a capacity of 2.6 million tons per year – was lifted into place in sections. @Fish in the desert

The stripping column of the aromatic hydrocarbons complex plant was manufactured by Ningbo Tianyi, with a total weight of 1,900 tons (column height? Length: ?? meters (the diameter has not yet been determined); it will be lifted in two sections, using an XCMG 4000-ton crawler crane for the main lifting operation and a Sany 1600-ton crawler crane for assisting with the lifting.

Without comparison, there is no hatred. The heaviest equipment lifted before this was the 2# propylene tower of the ethylene plant, which weighed 1,800 tons. The largest equipment of the Zhejiang Petrochemical project – Tower No. 2 for propylene – has been successfully lifted https://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-1885146-1-1.html (Source: Haichuan Chemical Industry Forum)

Due to the excessive weight of the residue liquid tower, the lifting was not carried out in a holistic manner; moreover, it is evident that the modular installation method involving the use of specialized components was not fully applied – only the pipelines attached to the tower and the railing for the ladder platform were installed, which increases the difficulty of subsequent insulation work.

The insulation work seems to not have enough time left; the scaffolding for this tower should be erected all the way to the top by then.

I haven’t seen any news; probably they need to keep a low profile these days

He, just like me, sees the news and shares it with everyone. How about adding him to the WeChat Moments?

The scaffolding can be erected in sections. Has the delivery been completed, so that the crane schedule can’t be met?

I heard it’s too heavy and can’t be lifted.

It seems the deadline is too tight, so the installation of certain components has been halted. A lifting injury accident at the Zhejiang Petrochemical project https://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-2128185-1-1.html (Source: Haichuan Chemical Industry Forum)
