【Haichuan Chemical Salary News】Construction begins on Gansu Wengfu’s phosphate production process improvement project

On March 26, the groundbreaking ceremony was held for the technology upgrade project of Gansu Wengfu Company’s 200,000 tons per year semi-anhydrous–dihydrate wet-process phosphoric acid production facility. This project is a major technical renovation initiative of the Phosphating Group in 2020, with a total investment of over 60 million yuan; it has played a positive role in promoting the transformation and upgrading of the group company. The hemihydrate–dihydrate process represents a completely new production method for wet-process phosphoric acid; currently, only a few companies in China have established facilities to use this process. Upon completion of the project, the concentration of dilute phosphoric acid will increase from the current 23.5% to 38%, while the phosphorus recovery rate will rise from 94% to over 96%. The capacity of the concentration unit will be enhanced, and steam consumption will be reduced by more than 60%, thereby significantly cutting production costs. This will save the company over 40 million yuan per year, laying a solid foundation for its future sustainable development. The commencement of this project marks a solid step forward for Gansu Wengfu Chemical Co., Ltd. in terms of transformation and upgrading as well as high-quality development.

Gansu Wengfu Chemical Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the Company) is located in Hexibao Town, Yongchang County, Jinchang City, in the middle of the historic Silk Road corridor. It is adjacent to the major Eurasian transportation artery—the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway and National Highway 312. The Jinchang station on the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway is 2 kilometers away from the factory, with a dedicated railway line leading straight to the factory. Provincial Highway 212 passes by the company’s entrance, ensuring convenient transportation and smooth logistics. The company’s registered capital is 245.65 million RMB, and it has 468 employees on its payroll. Its annual production capacity is 420,000 tons of diammonium phosphate and 120,000 tons of ammonium phosphate. It is currently the largest manufacturer of high-concentration phosphorus fertilizers in northwestern China, with its products mainly sold in provinces and regions such as Gansu, Xinjiang, Qinghai, Ningxia, Shaanxi, and Inner Mongolia. In 2009, the company was recognized by the Fertilizer Professional Committee of the Chinese Chemical Society and the China Chemical Information Association as one of the \"Top 100 Most Competitive Fertilizer Companies in China\", as well as among the top 3 fertilizer companies in Gansu Province; it also made it into the list of the \"Top 100 Industrial Enterprises in Gansu\"” ； In 2010, it was named one of the “Top 100 Fertilizer Companies in China”.

Gansu Wengfu Company continues to use new technologies to develop new products, and has gradually grown into the largest production base for high-concentration phosphate fertilizers in China’s northwest region. In the first five months of this year, operating revenue reached 540 million yuan. 　　In 2014, Gansu Wengfu established an enterprise technology center and formed a 50-member team for technological innovation. Experts in phosphate fertilizer research from the Wengfu Group, professors from Northwest University of Science and Technology, and doctors from Gansu Academy of Agricultural Sciences were invited as external experts to the technology center to provide guidance for the company’s technological innovation efforts. Since 2016, the company has invested over 2 million yuan each year in technological innovation, generating annual economic benefits of 10 million yuan for the enterprise. The company has innovated its agrochemical service models, establishing a comprehensive marketing network in the Hexi Corridor through the \"factory + farmers\" approach, thus creating a marketing network system with the unique characteristics of Gansu Wengfu. 　　To enhance its competitiveness, Gansu Wengfu has carried out a series of upgrades and renovations to modernize its production facilities and processes, improve the recovery rate of phosphorus, reduce production costs, minimize industrial pollution, and ensure the stable operation and development of the company. In the face of fierce market competition, new products are continuously introduced; high-, medium-, and low-end fertilizers such as ammonium polyphosphate, water-soluble fertilizer series, top-dressing fertilizer series, diammonium fertilizer series, monammonium fertilizer series, compound fertilizer series, and ordinary calcium carbonate suitable for saline-alkali soils have been successfully developed. The phosphatic ammonium product has been recognized as a famous brand in Gansu Province. It is mainly sold in provinces and regions such as Gansu, Xinjiang, Qinghai, Ningxia, Shaanxi, and Inner Mongolia, where it has received widespread praise. The company has been awarded titles such as one of the top 100 most competitive fertilizer enterprises in China, among China’s top 100 fertilizer enterprises, Gansu Province Enterprise Technology Center, Gansu Province High-Tech Enterprise, and **Enterprise with Intellectual Property Advantages. To date, the company holds 106 patents, including 12 invention patents and 94 utility model patents. (Reporter Gao Peng)

Gansu also produces phosphoric acid.....:o I thought that only Yunnan and Nanhua produced phosphoric acid.

There are various factors behind the decision to develop the Northwest region; it is also a major user of chemical fertilizers

There are multiple factors behind the decision to develop the northwestern region; it is also a major user of chemical fertilizers. Additionally, Guizhou and Hubei along the riverways are strong in the phosphorus chemicals industry
