With a total investment of 12 billion yuan, the second phase of Haoyuan Chemical’s 400,000-ton per year nylon 66 production project is set to begin construction. On November 26, according to a statement issued by the Fuyang Municipal People’s Government, the new materials project, which involves an investment of nearly 12 billion yuan, is progressing smoothly at the site of Haoyuan Chemical Group’s facility in the Fuyang Coal-based New Materials Industrial Park, where nylon 66 is produced on an annual basis. Inside the packaging workshop, white granular material continuously flows down the production line; after being packaged, it is neatly stacked by transport robots. “At present, the first-phase project is operating smoothly, and the second-phase project, which involves a facility capable of producing 50,000 tons of nylon 66 per year, is about to begin construction. ”On-site staff explained that this project is included in the weekly consultations on key project support at both the municipal and district levels, which enables efficient resolution of the challenges encountered during its construction. The construction of the 400,000-ton nylon 66 plant includes a 270,000-ton/year nitric acid plant, a 240,000-ton/year cyclohexanol plant, a 320,000-ton/year adipic acid plant, a 400,000-ton/year nylon 66 polymerization plant, as well as supporting utility systems and auxiliary facilities. The project is located in the Coal-Based New Materials Industrial Park of Yingdong Economic Development Zone in Fuyang, with the technology coming from Invidia.
