Witnessing the decade-long rapid development of chemical processing equipment, I admire the prosperity and strength of modern China. This is just a modest contribution; I invite everyone to participate more actively in the discussions on this forum. The more people are involved, the more lively it becomes, and with you all here, it becomes even better. There are prizes for those who leave replies – feel free to discuss! -------------------------------------------------- At the beginning of December 2022, the first refining crystallizer, weighing 715 tons, for the 3-million-ton PTA production project at Yizheng Chemical Fibers, manufactured by Dalian Heavy Industries, was completed. It was then delivered to Sinopec Heavy Lifting and Transportation Company for shipment to the construction site of that project in Yizheng, Nanjing. In the early hours of December 15, 2022, a 4-row, 28-axle vehicle carrying the \"heaviest equipment\" for the 3-million-ton PTA project – a refined first crystallizer weighing 715 tons – transported this heavy equipment to the construction site of the project, located on the northern shore of the dock area at the Zijinshan Shipyard of Nanjing Yangtze River Oil Transportation Company in the Yizheng Chemical Industry Park. It took nearly 4 hours for the large equipment to be delivered there safely and successfully.
On the morning of December 15, 2022, after the First Refining Crystalizer was successfully and safely delivered to the project site by Sinopec Heavy Lifting and Transportation Company, the construction unit responsible for equipment installation took over and promptly carried out all the preparations necessary for lifting the equipment. It also checked and verified each item in accordance with the lifting plan for large-scale equipment on the project. On the morning of December 17, 2022, the lifting operation of the 715-ton first refining crystallizer – the heaviest equipment in the project with an annual production capacity of 3 million tons of PTA – was officially launched. With the assistance of a 2,000-ton class crawler crane and a 400-ton class crawler tail crane, it took a little over an hour to lift the first refining crystallizer into place safely and successfully.
