Ten years of rapid development in chemical processing equipment – praise for China’s prosperity and strength. This is just a starting point; more participation will make things even more lively. HaiChuan becomes even better with your involvement; we welcome everyone to join in the forum discussions and exchanges. ********************************************* On March 15, 2023, China’s first set of 1.5 million tons per year ethylene production equipment, designed and manufactured by SHENGU Group for Yulong Petrochemical, passed its trial operation at the Yingkou facility and was then shipped to the customer by sea. This unit represents the largest, most technologically advanced, and highest-quality domestically produced super-large ethylene production facility of its kind in China at present. It represents another breakthrough in the core technologies related to such super-large ethylene production facilities with capacities of over one million tons, as well as their associated components. 　　Jiang Yan, deputy chief engineer of SHENGU Group, said: “The equipment manufacturing industry is the backbone of the manufacturing sector; we must overcome the technical challenges that pose obstacles to our progress and take control of the core technologies in our own hands.” ”It is reported that the first set of 1.5 million tons per year ethylene production units, designed and manufactured by SHENGU for Yulong Petrochemical, completed all trial operations successfully on February 28 this year after 14 months of research, development, and manufacturing. The vibration amplitude of these units was less than 15 microns, and many of their performance indicators reached international leading levels. This represents another historic milestone for SHENGU, following its successful development of ethylene production units with annual capacities of 1 million tons, 1.2 million tons, and 1.4 million tons; it signifies that SHENGU’s capability to manufacture large-scale core equipment for ethylene production on a global scale has reached a new level once again.
