Ten years of rapid development in chemical technology – praise for China’s prosperity and strength. This is just a starting point; more participation from everyone will make things even more lively. HaiChuan becomes even better with your involvement; we welcome everyone to join in the forum discussions. It’s hot in July, so be careful to prevent fires. --------------------------------------------- Yunnan Pioneer Chemical uses the YM coal slag gasification technology, an innovation developed by Yunnan Coal Chemical Group. It also employs the one-step methanol-to-gasoline conversion technology jointly developed by Shanxi Coal Chemistry Institute, Saiding Company, and Yunnan Coal Chemical Industry – with an annual production capacity of 200,000 tons of gasoline. Trial production began in 2014. Production was halted for rectification in 2016 due to foul odors generated during the manufacturing process. After more than two years of renovation, the gasifier was fed with material on December 14, 2019, and crude methanol was produced on the same day. The YM gasifier was jointly designed by Yunnan Coal Chemical Group Company and Saiding Engineering Company, with its core components being independently designed by Yunnan Coal Chemical Group Company. The Yunnan Pioneer Chemical Brown Coal Purification and Utilization Demonstration Project uses 8 YM coal ash gasification furnaces, with five in operation and three as backups. On July 15, 2023, YM8 gasifier of Yunnan Pioneer Chemical Co., Ltd. operated continuously and stably for 424 days, setting a new operation record for YM gasifiers since their commissioning and breaking the cycle record for fixed-bed slag gasifiers!
