The world's first 100,000-ton green low-carbon methanol plant was officially put into operation in Anyang Author/Source: Modern coal chemical industry date: 2023-02-22 Click rate: 18 On February 21, the world’s first 100,000-ton green low-carbon methanol plant, jointly invested by Geely Holding Group and Henan Shuncheng Group, was officially put into operation in Anyang. This is my country’s first and the world’s largest carbon dioxide hydrogenation to produce green low-carbon methanol plant. It ignites a new beacon for China’s energy diversification strategy and is a vivid practice in promoting Chinese-style modernization. You Yong, Deputy Director of the Department of Energy Conservation and Comprehensive Utilization of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ibrei, Ambassador of Iceland to China, People of Anyang City * * Mayor Gao Yong, Deputy Director of the Henan Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology Dong Yanli, Chairman of Geely Holding Group Li Shufu, Chairman of Henan Shuncheng Group Wang Xinshun and others jointly launched the commissioning ceremony. Thordarsson, Icelandic Minister of Environment, Energy and Climate, delivered a video speech. from around the world * * Institutions, experts, scholars, and industry chain partners are discussing the development of methanol circular economy. The ceremony also saw the signing of a second-phase framework agreement for green low-carbon methanol production in Anyang, the establishment of a new energy commercial vehicle operating company and a coal-coke full value chain decision-making simulation platform project. Geely's Alcohol Hydrogen Technology and Shuncheng Group signed an order for 300 methanol heavy-duty trucks and delivered the first batch of 30 units to facilitate zero-carbon land transportation. A number of technologies have been realized to realize carbon dioxide resource utilization and have reached the international and domestic advanced level. China emits 10.5 billion tons of carbon dioxide every year. They are the enemy of environmental pollution and the culprit of global warming. How to turn waste into treasure? The Anyang green low-carbon methanol plant is a vivid practice of realizing the utilization of carbon dioxide resources. The factory comprehensively utilizes by-product hydrogen from Shuncheng Group's coke oven gas and carbon dioxide captured from industrial exhaust gas to synthesize green, low-carbon methanol. Producing 110,000 tons of methanol every year can directly reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 160,000 tons, which is equivalent to increasing the forest planting area by 160,000 acres, and has good social and economic benefits. Anyang Methanol Factory Many technologies of Anyang Methanol Factory have reached the international and domestic advanced level, including digesting and absorbing the carbon dioxide hydrogenation to methanol (ETL) technology of Icelandic CRI Company, and innovatively applying it to Chinese enterprises. At the same time, the factory adopts China's world-leading carbon dioxide capture and purification process with completely independent intellectual property rights to recover carbon dioxide from industrial exhaust gas. Industry is the main body and growth engine of the national economy, and it is also the main battlefield for energy conservation and consumption reduction. You Yong believes that the commissioning and project signing are innovative practices by the two companies to promote the green and low-carbon transformation and upgrading of the industry, and have important exploratory and demonstrative significance in promoting carbon emission reduction in the coal chemical industry. Anyang is an important industrial town in northern Henan. Gao Yong said that the commissioning of the factory is not only a symbol of Shuncheng Group's successful transformation into a technology-based enterprise and a green enterprise, but also the epitome of the transformation and upgrading of Anyang's manufacturing industry and low-carbon emission reduction. Creating a methanol circular economy is an effective way to promote energy security and carbon neutrality. Li Shufu believes that in the future, carbon dioxide will be used on a larger scale, and unstable energy sources such as wind energy and solar energy will be used on a larger scale to synthesize green methanol, bringing new diversified technological paths to the world's energy revolution and carbon neutrality. Henan Shuncheng Group has been committed to exploring the transformation and upgrading of coal chemical enterprises. Wang Xinshun said that Shuncheng Group plans to invest another 5 billion yuan to build an Anyang alcohol and hydrogen industry demonstration base and contribute to society as a strong, green and sustainable enterprise.
