Total investment of 11.9 billion yuan! Announcement on a New Coal Chemical Project in Jiangsu It was recently reported that Jiangsu Linggu Group plans to build a demonstration project for an integrated circular industry chain for green new materials in the New Materials Industrial Park in Guanlin Town, Yixing City. The project utilizes multi-nozzle water-coal slurry gasification and high-efficiency, low-energy urea production technologies to manufacture various products such as new value-added fertilizers, diesel vehicle exhaust cleaners, electronic hydrogen, ultra-pure ammonia, and liquid CO2. The project will be constructed in two phases. The first phase of the project involves the construction of 1 facility capable of producing 1 million tons of synthetic ammonia per year, 1 facility for producing 880,000 tons of small-grain urea per year, 1 facility for producing 880,000 tons of large-grain urea per year, 2 facilities for producing 630,000 tons of diesel exhaust treatment agents (32.5%) per year, 1 facility for producing 400,000 tons of food-grade carbon dioxide per year, 1 facility for producing 10,000 tons of ultra-pure ammonia per year, 1 facility for producing 20 million standard cubic meters of electronic hydrogen per year, as well as various supporting infrastructure and auxiliary facilities. The main products include 1 million tons per year of liquid ammonia, 800,000 tons per year of small-grain urea, 800,000 tons per year of large-grain urea, 224,000 tons per year of diesel exhaust cleaner (32.5%), 400,000 tons per year of food-grade carbon dioxide, 10,000 tons per year of ultra-pure ammonia, 200,000 tons per year of ammonia solutions (with >10% ammonia content), 20 million standard cubic meters per year of hydrogen, 10,000 tons per year of liquid sulfur, 116,700 tons per year of liquid oxygen as a by-product of air separation, 35,000 tons per year of liquid nitrogen, and 45,000 tons per year of liquid argon. The total investment for Phase 1 of the project is 10.01 billion yuan. The second-phase investment is 1.88 billion yuan. In December 2024, Jiangsu Linggu Group published information on the environmental impact assessment as well as results of the social stability risk assessment for the project on its official website. It is reported that the demonstration project for an integrated circular industrial chain of new coal chemical industry and green new materials in Linggu Chemical will promote the development of such projects in areas such as the strategic emerging materials industry, the hydrogen energy industry chain, electronic specialty gases, and the supporting industries within the park. The project will be built in the Yixing New Materials Industrial Park, covering an area of around 1,200 mu. Linggu Chemical Group Co., Ltd. was established in 1966 and is a manufacturer of synthetic ammonia and urea. In recent years, the company has been awarded titles such as “One of the Top 100 Private Enterprises in Sinopec”, “One of the Top 100 Fertilizer Companies in China”, “Leader in Ammonia Production Efficiency”, and “Among the Top 20 in China’s nitrogen fertilizer industry in terms of ammonia production, urea production, and corporate profits”.
