Thread Content
At 9:28 a.m. on February 27, at the site where the first loop reactor – a key piece of equipment for Qilu Petrochemical’s 250,000-ton/year polypropylene joint venture project – was being lifted, upon the command of Li Wencheng, the chief lifting officer, a 1,000-ton crane and a 500-ton crane were used to lift the R202 reactor, which weighed 277 tons and was over 40 meters tall, slowly off the ground. The installation of the first loop reactor marks the transition of the project from civil construction to the equipment installation phase. Construction on this project will commence in full in 2024, with delivery scheduled for mid-October this year. Once completed, it will be able to produce 250,000 tons of high-performance polypropylene products per year, thereby extending the industrial chain and increasing the added value of these products.
