Prevention first, life above all. ----------------------------------------- On October 31st, the 90,000-ton/year vinyl acetate production facility of Lianhong (Shandong) Chemical Co., Ltd., located on the Shandong Peninsula, held its completion ceremony at the project site. The 90,000 tons per year vinyl acetate plant utilizes Sinopec’s vinyl acetate technology; this plant is the first industrial installation to adopt this process. This technology was developed based on the high-space velocity catalysts created by the Sinopec Shanghai Research Institute of Petrochemical Technology, resulting in a technology with independent intellectual property rights. It features excellent catalyst activity, a long catalyst lifespan, high reaction stability, fully domestic core process equipment, energy and material consumption at international first-class levels, as well as high safety performance. The project commenced on September 25, 2022. During the construction phase, Shanghai Engineering Company ensured coordinated management, fully fulfilling its responsibilities as the EPC general contractor. It worked together with Shandong Lianhong, the construction contractors, and other stakeholders to advance the project progress, ultimately achieving its successful completion. Going forward, Shanghai Engineering will work closely with Lianhong’s owners to ensure a successful first start-up of the plant.
