Construction of the equipment installation project for 800,000 tons of microinterfacial polyols at Hebei HNA Petrochemical New Materials Co., Ltd. (400,000 tons in the first phase) has begun

Thread Content

Recently, the installation project for 800,000 tons of microinterfacial polyols (400,000 tons in the first phase), undertaken by Sinochem Fourth Construction North China Company, held its groundbreaking ceremony in Jingxian County, Hengshui, Hebei, officially marking the start of the installation work for this project. This project is the core phase one of the annual 800,000-ton polyol production facility and related projects at Hebei HNA Petrochemical New Materials Co., Ltd. The project scope includes all aspects of construction work related to polyols and associated facilities: the installation of steel structures for gasification and purification units, the placement of equipment, the laying of process pipelines, the installation of electrical and instrumentation systems, as well as anti-corrosion and insulation measures. Once completed, it will help the enterprise take a solid step forward in the direction of diversified development within its industrial chain, thereby injecting new momentum into the upgrading of the regional chemical industry. Project Overview: In February 2025, the Hengshui City Data and Government Services Bureau issued a public notice regarding its approval decision on the environmental impact assessment document for the project of Hebei HNA Petrochemical New Materials Co., Ltd., which involves an annual production capacity of 800,000 tons of polyols and related facilities (Phase I). Project Name: Hebei HNA Petrochemical New Materials Co., Ltd.’s Annual Production of 800,000 Tons of Polyols and Related Products (Phase I Project)
Owner of the Project: Hebei HNA Petrochemical New Materials Co., Ltd.
Location of Construction: Jingxian County, Hengshui City, Hebei HNA Petrochemical New Materials Co., Ltd.
Construction Period: 26 months
Total Investment: The total investment for Phase I is 2,426,560,000 yuan, of which 50,000,000 yuan is allocated to environmental protection measures, accounting for 2.1% of the total investment.
Production Capacity: Annual production of 50,000 tons of n-butanol, 350,000 tons of isooctanol, 3,200 tons of sulfur; in addition, 43,000 tons of CO gas and 45,000 tons of isobutyraldehyde will be produced annually. n-Butanol is widely used in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and even energy industries, and is an important basic organic chemical raw material. Isooctanol, also known as 2-ethylhexanol or simply octanol, is primarily used as a raw material for polyvinyl chloride plasticizers; it can also be employed as a solvent and preservative. Hebei HNA Petrochemical New Materials Co., Ltd. is a subsidiary of Hebei Haiwei Traffic Facilities Group Co., Ltd.; it was established in March 2015 with a registered capital of 500 million yuan. Its factory is located in the Petrochemical Materials Park within the Hengde Industrial Park, Hebei Jingxian High-Tech Industry Development Zone, in Hengshui City, Hebei Province. HNA Petrochemical currently has one propane dehydrogenation unit with an annual capacity of 500,000 tons. This unit includes a PDH production area, storage tank areas, a vehicle loading/unloading area, and circulation ponds, etc. It uses propane derived from associated gas in oil fields as raw material to produce propylene; the annual output of propylene is 500,000 tons, while the output of the by-product C4+ is 23,450 tons.
