Witness the decade-long rapid development of chemical processing equipment; praise the prosperity and strength of modern China. Replies will be rewarded – discussions are welcome. ------------------------------------------- The record-breaking long-term operation of the aerospace furnace in Phase 1 of Anhui Haoyuan. Construction of the aerospace furnace project in Phase 1 of Anhui Haoyuan began in November 2011, was fully completed in October 2012, and trial operations started in March 2013. Anhui Haoyuan Phase I project is a reform project for the synthetic ammonia feedstock route; it utilizes one (Φ2800×3200 type) aerospace powder gasifier, and began operations with feedstock feeding in March 2013. Due to its stable operation, Anhui Haoyuan promptly commenced the construction of the second phase of the space furnace, which was put into operation on April 23, 2014. The success of the first phase of the space furnace project in achieving 320 days of continuous operation can be attributed largely to meticulous management. This is attributed both to the improved proficiency of the employees operating the existing equipment, and to the four refined management systems implemented by Anhui Haoyuan. First, implement refined management of electrical instruments. Second, implement refined management of operator training. Third, implement precise management of operational discipline. Fourth, implement refined management of coal types and coal blends. On October 18, 2016, a power outage in the external grid brought an end to the continuous operation of the space furnace, which had been running since December 2, 2015; as a result, its total period of continuous operation amounted to 320 days. As of April 8, 2017, the 24/7 continuous operation of Phase 1 of the Haoyuan project, undertaken by China Aerospace Changzheng Company, has now reached 416 days, surpassing the record of 407 days set by the Manas project in 2017. In November 2022, the \"spacecraft furnace\" unit at the Anhui Haoyuan project was able to operate at full capacity for a consecutive period of 485 days, setting a new world record for the continuous operation time (Class A) using gas-flow bed gasification technology.
