Progress on the China Coal Tuoketuo Green and Low-Carbon Demonstration Industry Project Author/Source: Coal Chemical Industry Information Network Date: 2023-05-04 Clicks: 37 From April 26 to 28, the project’s foundation engineering design meeting was held, with China Five Rings Engineering Co., Ltd. (referred to as “China Five Rings”) serving as the lead agency. Wang Liu, Party Secretary and Chairman of China Coal Ordos Energy Chemical Co., Ltd.; Cui Shuming and Liu Yujun, Deputy General Managers ； Yu Xin, Party Secretary and Chairman of China Five Rings, and Ning Jianping, Deputy General Manager, attended the meeting. Yu Xin pointed out that the China Coal Tuoketuo Green and Low-Carbon Demonstration Industrial Project, as a key demonstration project in Wushen Banner, Ordos, aimed at boosting industrial standards and capacity as well as elevating the level of industrial development in 2023, holds great strategic significance for the regional economy and the development of local enterprises. Wang Liu said that the holding of the meeting for the design of the project’s infrastructure by the main design institute marks a new phase in the project’s development. The comprehensive advancement of this infrastructure design will further finalize the overall plan for the project, implement the plans related to auxiliary facilities, and create the necessary conditions for the procurement and bidding processes for various sub-projects. It is hoped that all participating parties will, during the foundation design phase, raise their awareness, enhance communication, and work together closely to accomplish all the design and construction tasks related to the project in a high-quality and efficient manner. The China Coal Tuoke Green and Low-Carbon Demonstration Industrial Project is a demonstration project for a high-end chemicals complex that is energy-efficient, low-carbon, efficient, intelligent, and digital. It was developed by China Coal Enerchemicals Company on the basis of its existing production facilities capable of producing 2 million tons per year of ammonia alcohol and 1.6 million tons per year of urea, by utilizing new technologies that integrate wind, solar, electrical energy, hydrogen, and chemical processing capabilities. The projects under construction, planned for construction, and in the planning stage include a total of 19 sub-projects such as a project with an annual production capacity of 100,000 tons of green methanol, a project with an annual production capacity of 500,000 tons of green ammonia, and a project with an annual production capacity of 60,000 tons of melamine; the total investment required for these projects is over 20 billion yuan. As the overall coordinator for the Tuk Green and Low-Carbon Demonstration Industry Project, China Five Rings submits a preliminary engineering design commencement report covering various aspects such as the project overview, design criteria and principles, scope of work and services provided, WBS and division of design responsibilities, overall schedule, and implementation suggestions. The successful holding of the kick-off meeting for this infrastructure project design by the overall design institute marks a new phase in which the Zhongmei Tuk Green and Low-Carbon Demonstration Industry Project of China Coal Enerchemical Company is entering an era of accelerated design work and rapid progress in construction. The current setup at the Tuk site of China Coal Ordos Energy & Chemical Company features BGL gasification technology; in 2013, two production lines were built, with capacities of 500,000 tons per year for synthetic ammonia and 800,000 tons per year for urea. In April 2021, the 1 million-ton methanol project completed its process flow and produced qualified products.
