News on December 10: On December 10, China Tianying responded to questions from researchers, stating that as one of the key projects in its operations in Jilin, the Liaoyuan Phase I Green Methane Project employs an innovative process that involves using green electricity to electrolyze water to produce hydrogen, along with the synthesis of green CO2. The project is equipped with a hydrogen production facility capable of producing 104,000 Nm³/h of hydrogen; the core equipment includes 104 alkaline electrolyzers, each capable of producing 1,000 Nm³/h of hydrogen. In addition, 17 hydrogen storage tanks with a capacity of 2,000 m³ each are available to help mitigate the impact of fluctuations in wind power on production. The methane plant has a production capacity of 180,000 tons per year. The product is primarily targeted at the carbon reduction markets in Europe’s land and maritime transportation sectors, enabling the local utilization of green electricity and the efficient recycling of carbon resources. Overall, the Liaoyuan Tianying Hydrogen-based Energy Integration Project is a landmark initiative for Jilin Province’s \"green hydrogen+\\" industry. It includes plans to build 20 hydrogen production facilities, 365 wind turbines with a capacity of 7.15 MW each, 4 systems for direct combustion of straw, as well as 1 facility for producing 170,000 tons of green methanol and 2 facilities for producing 180,000 tons of green methane each. Once all these facilities are completed, they will be able to produce 100,000 tons of green methanol and 190,000 tons of green methane per year, thereby enabling the full utilization of wind energy generated off the grid. To date, the first phase of the Liaoyuan project is scheduled to have the capability to produce green methanol by the end of the second quarter of 2026 ； In the chemical industry sector, construction is underway on 10 hydrogen production plants and 22 hydrogen storage tanks, while 56 electrolyzers have been delivered for installation.
