11.5 billion yuan invested in the construction of Guangdong Maoming Acrylic Acid Industrial Park 2024-12-24 14:09:40 On the 16th, construction began on the Guangdong Maoming Acrylic Acid Industrial Park project within the Maoming Zero-Carbon Industrial Park, marking further progress in expanding and strengthening industrial chains in this area, as well as greater strides in terms of technological innovation, green development, and intelligent manufacturing. The Maoming Acrylic Acid Industrial Park project has a total investment of around 11.5 billion yuan. It will employ the world’s leading \"one-step oxidation of propane to produce acrylic acid\" technology to establish an industrial chain that goes from the raw material propane to end products such as sanitary materials and coatings. Phase 1 of the project plans to build an acrylic acid plant with an annual capacity of 50,000 tons and a butyl acrylate plant with an annual capacity of 100,000 tons. Phase 2 plans to build an acrylic acid plant with an annual capacity of 960,000 tons, an acrylate plant with an annual capacity of 800,000 tons, and an SAP plant with an annual capacity of 540,000 tons. The project is expected to complete the first phase of construction by the end of 2025, and to finish installation and commissioning by May 2026, so as to prepare for production. The acrylic acid industrial park project utilizes the latest technologies to revolutionarily produce the intermediate product acrylic acid directly through the oxidation of propane, and then to manufacture high-value acrylate and SAP products. Upon completion of the project, a complete industrial chain for acrylic products such as acrylic acid, acrylates, and superabsorbent resins will be established, thereby promoting the development of a comprehensive acrylic industry in Maoming City. It will also drive the transformation and upgrading of China’s carbon triolefin-based industries and related sectors, bringing about new advancements in the chemical industry and materials science. The innovative advanced technologies developed will constitute new forms of productive capacity. Liang Rongjie, vice mayor of Maoming and secretary of the Party Working Committee of Maoming Binhai New Area, said that the commencement of the Maoming Acrylic Acid Industrial Park project marks a new and solid step forward in the development of Maoming’s zero-carbon industrial parks; it is a milestone event in the progress of Maoming’s green chemical industry.
