The Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences provided technical support, while Beijing Zhongke Fuhai Cryogenic Technology Co., Ltd. acted as the contractor responsible for assembling the entire system. Several well-known domestic enterprises are collaborating together to advance the development of liquid hydrogen production technologies. The overall project is designed to achieve a production capacity of 100 tons of liquid hydrogen per day; once the first phase is operational, it will be able to produce 10 tons of liquid hydrogen per day, which holds significant economic importance. The project involves the procurement of two sets of compressor equipment, one set of each type; the larger set utilizes three-stage compression, with a volumetric flow rate of 37,000 Nm3/h. At present, Shengu Reciprocating Machinery Company is actively carrying out preliminary technical preparation work. Zhongke Fuhai is an industrialization company affiliated with the Institute of Physical and Chemical Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Focusing on the research, development, and manufacturing of large-scale cryogenic refrigeration equipment, it has developed large refrigerators and helium liquefaction systems capable of meeting the needs of various large-scale scientific projects in the 20K temperature range and below. It has also created comprehensive solutions for hydrogen liquefaction, the storage and transportation of liquid hydrogen, as well as hydrogen refueling stations, thereby breaking the monopoly held by foreign products and technologies. The reciprocating compressor system for the Beijing Aerospace Test Technology Institute (referred to as “Institute 101”), for which Shenyu Group’s Reciprocating Machine Company has been awarded the contract, has completed its preliminary technical preparations and has begun operation; delivery is expected by the end of October this year. Once operational, this hydrogen production facility will be able to produce 5 tons of liquid hydrogen per day. The Beijing Aerospace Test Technology Institute (No. 101 Institute of the Sixth Academy of China National Space Administration) was established in 1958. It is China’s largest, most fully equipped, and technologically advanced ground-based comprehensive test and research facility for aerospace propulsion systems. It is the only facility dedicated to the research and testing of hydrogen-oxygen engines, as well as China’s earliest established comprehensive test and research center for aerospace propulsion systems. It has 15 large-scale aerospace testing facilities, including China’s only test bench for the entire rocket propulsion system and Asia’s largest high-altitude simulation testing center for space engines.
