Thread Content
On November 12th, the construction site of Henan Longyu Coal Chemical Co., Ltd.’s new project to produce 200,000 tons of ethylene glycol per year was bustling with activity, featuring flying flags and the humming of machinery. At the command of the supervisor, the 177-ton synthetic reactor was slowly lifted and successfully placed in position in one go. The tank to be lifted this time has a maximum diameter of 4.2 meters and a height of 15.1 meters; it is one of the main equipment for this project.
On March 19, 2018, the groundbreaking ceremony was held for Longyu Coal Chemical’s new 200,000 tons per year ethylene glycol production project under Henan Energy and Chemical Industry Group. The 200,000-ton per year ethylene glycol production project using excess syngas, operated by Nanlongyu Coal Chemical Co., Ltd., is located in the Industrial Cluster Zone of Yongcheng City. This project makes use of the existing system capabilities as well as 60,000 Nm3/h of excess syngas to produce ethylene glycol; the total investment planned is 1 billion yuan, the site covers an area of 200 mu, and the construction period is 20 months.
According to reports from July 17, the reaction unit area of Henan Longyu Coal Chemical’s 200,000 tons per year ethylene glycol production project, which is being constructed by Sinochem 11th Construction Company’s Central Plains branch, officially commenced construction on July 9. The reaction unit area constructed by the Central Plains Branch mainly involves the construction and installation of 7 key facilities, including the hydrogenation reaction area, synthesis reaction area, hydrogenation compression plant, synthesis compression plant, exhaust gas compressor, PSA unit, and central control room; the contract value is 100 million yuan. Through a month of careful planning by the project team, all work has now been completed: the on-site office area, temporary construction structures, fencing around the construction site, temporary electrical installations, and surveying and marking tasks have all been finished. The construction equipment, rebar, formwork, and other materials required for the civil engineering work have also been delivered to the site for inspection.
