Reply reward! ---------------------------------------------- The past decade has been a period of rapid development for China’s chemical industry, marked by the emergence of many new processes, products, and equipment. There has also been significant progress in China’s chemical processing equipment, which has contributed to the swift advancement of the petrochemical sector. Here, we have compiled some of the achievements and breakthroughs made by Chinese equipment manufacturers in terms of larger-scale production and increased use of domestic equipment. We invite everyone to share, discuss, and exchange ideas – let’s cheer for Made in China and support the development of chemical processing equipment! ==========================
The core reactor (with internal components of DN4000) of this 600,000 tons/year methanol production system was designed and manufactured by Nanjing Jutuo Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. In April 2020, the manufacturing of the internal components for a large-scale methanol synthesis reactor with an annual capacity of 600,000 tons was completed. In May 2020, the tower’s internal components and casing were assembled at a company in Jiangsu Province, and then transported to the production facility of Henan Xinlianxin Jiujiang Branch; they arrived at the site on May 21st and were successfully lifted into place on May 24th.
Is the production of methanol from coal now capable of reaching 900,000 tons or even 1.8 million tons per production line?
Nanjing Jutuo relies on its own technology and complete sets of equipment
In the design of the methanol synthesis reactor for \"Jiujiang Xinlianxin Fertilizer Co., Ltd.\" this time, Nanjing Jutuo Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. further applied its own patented technologies to carry out innovative design and precision manufacturing of the key components. Various simulation calculations were conducted during the design process, and materials with reliable performance and meeting the required standards were selected. With the goals of saving energy and reducing costs as well as enhancing intrinsic safety, the design ensured that the facility would possess technical advancement, economic Rationality, and operational reliability once put into use. Nanjing Jutuo Company has previously supplied two 600,000 tons per year methanol production units to Wanhua Chemical Group Co., Ltd. (one of which has been installed), thus having accumulated extensive design experience.
