Yili Xintian Coal Chemical plans to build a project for the deep processing of heavy aromatic hydrocarbons and polyhydrocarbons. On April 2, 2020, the Department of Ecology and Environment of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region intended to issue a decision regarding the environmental impact assessment report (form) for this project carried out by Yili Xintian Coal Chemical Co., Ltd. The public notice period is from April 2, 2020, to April 8, 2020 (5 working days). Project Name: Deep Processing Project of Heavy Aromatics and Polyhydrocarbons by Yili Xintian Coal Chemical Co., Ltd. Location: This project is of the renovation and expansion type; the geographical coordinates of the plant site are E81°12'20.5", N44°03'20.4", and it is located within the coal-based clean fuel oil industry zone of the park. Environmental assessment agency: Hebei Zhengrun Environmental Technology Co., Ltd. Project overview: This project aims to treat the tar produced as a by-product of the existing facility (i.e., the \"heavy aromatics\" in this project, 120,000 tons per year) and medium oil (i.e., the \"polyhydrocarbons\" in this project, 80,000 tons per year). Tar falls under the category of \"coal tar generated during gas condensation in the gas production process\" as listed in the **List of Hazardous Wastes (2016 edition)**, and it belongs to HW11 distillation residues (code 450-003-11); therefore, it must be collected and treated in accordance with the requirements for handling hazardous waste. The total investment for this project is 73.86 million yuan, of which 65.06 million yuan is allocated to the first phase and 8.8 million yuan to the second phase. Investment in environmental protection amounted to 12.74 million yuan, accounting for 17.25% of the total investment. Source: Department of Ecology and Environment, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region
