On November 18, the signing ceremony for Jiantao (Beihai) Industrial Co., Ltd.’s 50,000 tons per year epichlorohydrin production project using the direct oxidation method of hydrogen peroxide was held in Beihai, Guangxi. Cheng Jiang, General Manager of Jiantao (Beihai) Industrial Co., Ltd.; Dai Wen, a researcher at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences; and Zhao Yingfang, Chairman of Shandong Jierui Kaitai Technology Co., Ltd., signed the agreement on behalf of the three parties respectively. Leaders from the Beihai Science and Technology Bureau, the Industry and Information Technology Bureau, and the Tieshangang (Linhai) Industrial Zone Management Committee attended the event to witness this important moment that promotes the green upgrading of the epichlorohydrin industry and contributes to the high-quality development of Beihai’s industries. Epichlorohydrin is a key raw material in fields such as epoxy resins and chloroprene rubber, but traditional production processes suffer from issues including high energy consumption, numerous by-products, and difficulties in treating saline organic wastewater. To address the aforementioned issues, Devine’s research team spent three years working hard to comprehensively optimize and upgrade existing technologies. They successfully developed a new generation of catalytic oxidation systems and made breakthrough advances in several key technical areas. This system features the following characteristics: first, while the reaction efficiency is significantly improved, key performance indicators such as activity and selectivity are also optimized simultaneously ； Secondly, the product can be refined to high purity through simple physical separation, which not only meets the requirements of high-end applications but also significantly simplifies the post-treatment process ； Thirdly, the catalyst exhibits excellent stability during continuous cyclic use, resulting in a significant reduction in its specific consumption. Through innovative technical integration, Davin’s team has significantly enhanced the market competitiveness of their products in terms of cost and performance, laying the foundation for the industrialization and widespread adoption of this technology. The 50,000 tons per year epichlorohydrin project using the direct oxidation method with hydrogen peroxide, which was signed this time, is an important outcome of cooperation among the three parties, leveraging their respective strengths and in line with the trends in the industry’s development. As an important industrial platform for the Jiantao Group in Guangxi, Jiantao (Beihai) Industrial Co., Ltd. leverages its experience in industrial operations, financial strength, and the strategic location of Beihai to undertake this project aimed at optimizing the product portfolio and driving the green, high-end transformation of the chemical industry in Beihai ； The Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, provides core technical support for the project, ensuring that these core technologies achieve industry-leading standards in terms of process advancement, environmental sustainability, and economic efficiency, thereby facilitating the implementation of scientific research results ； Shandong Jierui Kaitai Technology Co., Ltd. possesses extensive practical experience and professional expertise in chemical process design and engineering technology services. By combining core technologies with industry demands, it accurately develops process packages and engineering designs to ensure the efficient implementation of projects.
