On December 12, a pre-submission public notice for the environmental impact assessment of Guangxi Hua Yi New Materials Co., Ltd.’s 300,000 tons per year PBAT biodegradable materials project was released. Project Name: 300,000 tons/year Biodegradable Material PBAT Project
Constructor: Guangxi Hua Yi New Materials Co., Ltd.
Nature of Construction: New construction
Location of the Project: Jingu Area, Qinzhou Petrochemical Industry Park, Qinzhou Port Economic and Technological Development Zone, Qinzhou City – west side of Nangang Avenue and north side of Tianyi Petrochemical.
Main Contents of the Project: The project involves the construction of production facilities with a capacity of 60,000 tons/year (Phase I) plus 4 units of 60,000 tons/year each for PBAT production (Phase II). Additionally, various utility and auxiliary facilities will be built, such as fire water stations, chilled water stations, heat medium stations, raw material warehouses, hazardous chemicals storage areas, product warehouses, and temporary storage spaces for solid waste. The total construction area is 87,800 square meters. On December 8, a pre-submission public notice for the environmental impact assessment of Guangxi Hua Yi New Materials Co., Ltd.’s PBAT-related 1,4-butanediol project was released. Project Name: PBAT-related 1,4-butanediol project
Construction Unit: Guangxi Huayi New Materials Co., Ltd.
Nature of Construction: New construction
Location of Project Construction: Within the Qinzhou Petrochemical Industrial Park, Qinzhou Port Economic and Technological Development Zone, Guangxi
Main Contents of the Project: The project will be constructed in two phases; each phase will include a succinic anhydride production facility with an annual capacity of 160,000 tons, and a 1,4-butanediol production facility with an annual capacity of 100,000 tons. The total annual capacity will thus be 320,000 tons of succinic anhydride and 200,000 tons of 1,4-butanediol. The construction scope includes the main process unit, intermediate tank area, finished product tank area, liquid product truck loading and unloading station, desalinated water station, circulating water station, air compressor station, etc. The Huayi Qinzhou Chemical New Materials Integrated Base project is a model initiative for \"Shanghai-Guangxi cooperation\" created through deeper collaboration between the two regions; it has a total investment of around 90 billion yuan and covers four major industrial chains: modern coal chemistry, light hydrocarbon cracking, salt chemistry, and downstream petrochemicals. The project will be implemented in three phases. Among them, the first phase of the project was completed and put into operation in June 2021, filling the gap in industrial gases in the park and producing chemical products such as methanol, acetic acid, and ethylene glycol ； The 750,000-ton per year propylene and downstream deep-processing integrated project, as well as the chlor-alkali project at Huayi Phase II, commenced construction in November 2019 and were put into operation in November 2022. It mainly focuses on the development of products such as polypropylene, butyl acrylate, bisphenol A, caustic soda, and polyvinyl chloride, which are widely used in fields such as films, tapes, packaging, pipes, building materials, and new energy materials ； The Phase 3 Advanced Materials project of Huayi will mainly focus on the development of industries related to olefins and their downstream products, biodegradable materials, polyurethane materials, nylon 66, etc., and construction is set to begin in the near future. At present, the 16.2 billion yuan in investment for the first phase of the Huayi Qinzhou Chemical New Materials Integrated Base and its accompanying projects has been fully completed. The total investment for the second phase and related projects, amounting to 18.9 billion yuan, is also nearly complete, while preliminary work for the third phase is underway at full speed. As of October this year, over 3.5 million tons of products have been produced, with a production value exceeding 8.5 billion yuan. Among them, acetic acid products exported exceeded 350,000 tons, being sent to markets in Southeast Asia and Europe.
