【Ten Years of Great Progress in Chemical Technology】The world’s largest clean coal-to-hydrogen project from 2017 to 2022 has been put into operation

Thread Content

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 you here; we welcome everyone to engage more in discussions on this forum. Be careful with fire as the heat increases in July. -------------------------------------------- On September 19, 2022, the world’s largest pressure swing adsorption facility for coal-to-hydrogen production was put into operation in Yulin, Shaanxi, which will play a significant role in promoting the clean and efficient conversion of coal in China. This coal-to-hydrogen plant utilizes proprietary large-scale pressure swing adsorption technology developed independently; using coal as raw material, it has an annual hydrogen production capacity of 350,000 tons. As an important means for the efficient and clean utilization of coal resources, this technology is of great significance to China’s energy security, socioeconomic development, and environmental improvement. This project overcame the challenges related to process technology and design and manufacturing in large-scale coal-to-hydrogen plants, enabling it to replace and surpass foreign technologies. It not only established a pathway for converting coal into petrochemical products but also facilitated resource recovery, pollution control, and carbon emission reduction.
