On July 9, at the Baicheng Industrial Park, the groundbreaking ceremony was held simultaneously for Hechang (Xinjiang) New Materials Technology Co., Ltd.’s 2x200,000-ton coal tar deep processing project, as well as the Green Transformation·Demonstration Project for the treatment, recycling of coal gangue and coal slime waste. The two major energy transition projects, with a total investment of over 4.1 billion yuan, represent a crucial step forward for Baicheng County in the green transformation of its energy sector and the development of a circular economy, thereby providing strong impetus for the high-quality development of the county’s industry. The 2*200,000-ton per year deep processing project for coal tar by Hechang (Xinjiang) New Materials Technology Co., Ltd., as well as the demonstration project for green transformation and the recycling of coal gangue and coal slime waste, take advantage of the high-quality coal tar and coke oven gas resources available in Baicheng County, along with favorable conditions for establishing factories. By employing international advanced negative-pressure processes and environmental protection technologies, and by equipping itself with environmental protection facilities that are at the advanced level of similar enterprises in China, the company is committed to achieving the goals of environmental protection, energy conservation, and clean production. The project will involve the construction of a new 2*200,000 tons/year facility for the deep processing of coal tar, as well as a facility capable of producing high-purity carbazole from anthracene oil at a rate of 150,000 tons per year. The first phase of the coal tar distillation facility will be able to process 400,000 tons of anhydrous tar per year, with 8,000 hours of operation per year. The related tank areas, loading/unloading stations, and various units are designed to handle a capacity of 400,000 tons per year each. The anthracene oil processing facility will include several units, including one for the crystallization of anthracene oil, with a capacity of 80,000 tons per year. The project will process 400,000 tons of anhydrous tar per year, and it will also include tank areas, loading/unloading stations, and an intelligent control system to ensure full automation and clean production throughout the process. Once the project is completed and put into operation, it will not only generate an average annual profit of 199.6997 million yuan but also create employment for over 450 people. It will serve as a key driver for the upgrading of the coal and coal chemical industry in Baicheng County, facilitating the development of more advanced processing processes and thereby increasing the added value of this industry. This will provide sustained impetus for the economic and social development of Baicheng County, helping to establish a new industrial development model characterized by efficient use of resources and a favorable ecological environment. Du Xiaobo said, “We take advantage of Baise’s abundant coking coal and coal tar resources to build a full-industry-chain enterprise.” The project will be constructed in two phases: the first phase will cover advanced processing of various optoelectronic materials, while the second phase will extend to engineering plastics and carbon fiber materials. With a total investment of 4 billion yuan, it is expected to create employment for hundreds of people. Once completed, the project is set to become the nation’s most automated and high-end material industry hub. ” The Green Transformation・Coal Gangue and Coal Slurry Waste Treatment and Recycling Demonstration Project, funded by Jinghong Comprehensive Utilization of Renewable Resources Co., Ltd. in Lingshi County, has a total investment of 122.52 million yuan and covers an area of 66,588 square meters. It will include one production line for processing coal gangue at a capacity of 1.5 million tons per year, one production line for processing coal slurry at the same capacity, and one production line for manufacturing autoclaved bricks in quantities of 1,200,000 units per year. The total construction area is 50,000 square meters, encompassing production workshops, storage and transportation facilities, etc. Through advanced treatment processes, this project will effectively address the problem of environmental pollution caused by the large amounts of coal gangue and coal slurry in Baicheng County that remain untreated. It plays a key role in resource conservation and environmental protection; not only does it reduce the land use and ecological damage resulting from the accumulation of solid waste, but it also lowers pollutant emissions, helping to preserve the green landscapes of Baicheng County. At the same time, the project will effectively optimize the structure of the local building materials industry, promote the high-quality development of the green building materials sector, inject new momentum into the circular economy development in Baicheng County, and lay a solid foundation for a win-win situation between ecological protection and economic development in the region. Wang Wei said, “Coal is an important industrial cornerstone in China. Coal gangue and coal slime, which are by-products of coal production, have a significant impact on the ecological environment, and this project aims to address this issue. Once completed, it will be able to process 1 million tons of coal gangue and coal slime waste per year in Baicheng County, converting it into efficient energy sources. It will also create employment opportunities for over 100 people in the local area.” ” The successful groundbreaking of these two projects is a significant achievement resulting from Bai County’s proactive response to the call for a green transformation in the energy sector, its efforts to promote the efficient utilization of coal tar resources, its strengthening of cooperation among the government, enterprises, and society, as well as its efforts to optimize the industrial structure and layout.
