Thread Content
On January 24, the second public notice regarding the environmental impact assessment for Xinjiang Zhongkun New Materials’ project to produce 1 million tons of coal-based ethylene glycol per year was released. Nature of the project: New construction. Developer: Xinjiang Zhongkun New Materials Co., Ltd. Location: Kuerle Petroleum and Petrochemical Industrial Park. Total investment: 1,076,870.63 million yuan, of which 1,028,999.23 million yuan is allocated to construction costs. Land area required: A total of 998,820㎡ (1,497.3 mu), which falls within the industrial land area of the Kuerle Shangku High-Tech Industrial Development Zone’s Petroleum and Petrochemical Industrial Park. Project implementation plan: The construction period is 24 months; work is scheduled to begin in August 2026, with completion expected by August 2028. Scope of construction: The project involves the construction of an ethylene glycol production line with an annual output of 1 million tons. This includes facilities such as gasification units, purification units, H2/CO separation units, dimethyl oxalate production units, ethylene glycol production units, as well as various supporting infrastructure. Upon completion of the project, it will have an annual production capacity of 1 million tons of ethylene glycol. Xinjiang Zhongkun New Materials Co., Ltd. has a registered capital of 1,700 million yuan; it is wholly owned by Jiaxing Petrochemical Co., Ltd. The company’s project for producing 1 million tons of coal-based ethylene glycol per year was registered with the Korla Development and Reform Commission on September 23, 2025, under registration number 2506-652801-04-05-612886. The project uses externally purchased coal powder supplied by Xinjiang Shenhua Heishan, and employs advanced coal-to-ethylene glycol production technology to manufacture ethylene glycol products. Construction scale: The project uses coal as a raw material, which is carbonized to produce syngas for the manufacture of ethylene glycol. The construction scale is as follows: the main product is polyester-grade ethylene glycol at 1 million tons per year; the by-products include ethanol at 0.65 thousand tons per year, light diols at 2.5 thousand tons per year, heavy diols at 0.65 thousand tons per year, high-quality DMC at 31,500 tons per year, and 98% sulfuric acid at 55,000 tons per year.
