Guoneng Yulin Chemical Co., Ltd.’s 200,000 tons per year polylactic acid project: On May 6, 2023, the full version of the \"Environmental Impact Assessment Report for Guoneng Yulin Chemical Co., Ltd.’s 200,000 tons per year polylactic acid project\" (draft for comments) was made public. The public notice period is from May 6, 2023, to May 18, 2023 (10 working days). Project details: The project is located in the northern area of the Qingshui Coal Chemistry Industrial Park, Yushen Industrial Zone, Yulin City, Shaanxi Province. With a total investment of 724,107.64 million yuan, it makes full use of the resources, auxiliary facilities, production management systems, and administrative and living facilities provided by the first-phase of Shenhua Yulin’s circular economy coal utilization project (“SYCTC-1 Project”) as well as Shenhua Shaanxi’s methanol downstream processing project (“SSMTO Project”). It employs a new polyglycolic acid synthesis technology developed by Shanghai Pujing Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. to produce polyglycolic acid (PGA), with an annual production capacity of 200,000 tons of PGA. Outcomes: The goal has been successfully achieved, and this will also foster the technological development and industrial demonstration of clean and efficient use of coal to produce high-value-added products. It will make a positive contribution to advancing the coal chemical industry of the group in terms of higher quality, greater diversity, and lower carbon emissions.
