According to Donghua Technology, on May 9, 2023, an internal meeting regarding the basic design of the olefins, aromatics, and advanced processing components of this demonstration project for the clean and efficient conversion of coal at a rate of 15 million tons per year was held at Donghua Technology. Zhu Dinghua, member of the Party Committee and deputy general manager of Donghua Technology, along with the heads of various departments and members of the project team, attended the meeting. The Shaanxi Coal 15 million tons/year clean and efficient conversion of coal by different grades demonstration project is implemented in two phases. One phase involves the construction of an ethylene glycol plant with an annual capacity of 1.8 million tons, as well as a pyrolysis startup project. In the second phase, olefin, aromatic hydrocarbon, and advanced processing facilities are built on the basis of the first phase. Through the efficient sorting and grading of coal, this project produces major platform products such as olefins, aromatics, and base oils; it further processes these materials to manufacture four categories of end products with high added value: high-value materials, battery electrolyte solvents, biodegradable materials, and specialty oils. In this way, it achieves coordinated development between coal chemical industry and petroleum chemical industry. The construction scope includes facilities for 5.6 million tons per year of methanol, 2 million tons per year of methanol-to-olefins, as well as downstream processing units for polyethylene, polypropylene, butadiene, acrylic acid, and their esters.
