Project Name: 6 million tons per year clean and efficient comprehensive utilization project of low-grade coal and 600,000 tons per year coal tar hydrogenation project by Xinjiang Jiaguo Weiyeh New Energy Co., Ltd.
Coordinates: Tiaohu District, Bariqun, Hami City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The total investment for this project is 7,036,572,900 yuan. Utilizing the abundant low-grade coal available in Hami’s SanTanghu area (which refers to coal with a lower degree of carbonization, such as lignite and long-flame coal), this project employs a “stepwise pyrolysis + combined production” technique to convert such coal into semi-coke, coal tar, and raw coal gas. Among these, coal tar is hydrogenated to produce clean energy sources such as diesel and naphtha; waste gas is used to extract LNG (liquefied natural gas) and hydrogen; the by-product coal tar pitch serves as a raw material for lithium battery anode materials, thereby enabling the clean and efficient utilization of coal resources. Southwest Chemical Engineering Research and Design Institute Co., Ltd., Shanghai Xinyou New Energy Technology Co., Ltd., and Shaanxi Metallurgical Design and Research Institute Co., Ltd., as the design agencies for the project, collaborated to carry out the design work for this project. Lanshi Heavy Equipment provided pressure vessel equipment for Jia Guo Wei Ye’s project aimed at producing 600,000 tons of coal tar hydrogenated products per year. It was also responsible for the procurement of materials and equipment needed for the coal tar hydrogenation unit, the waste gas hydrogen production unit, the LNG unit, as well as the associated storage and transportation systems; it handled the construction work and ensured proper handover at various stages. Additionally, Lanshi Heavy Equipment assisted Jia Guo Wei Ye in carrying out the commissioning and testing processes. The project is constructed in two phases. The construction scope includes: in Phase 1, a new low-rank coal pyrolysis upgrading unit with an annual capacity of 3 million tons, a comprehensive utilization unit for raw gas (for hydrogen production) with a capacity of 60,000 m3/h, an LNG plant with an annual capacity of 80,000 tons, a coal tar hydrogenation plant with an annual capacity of 600,000 tons, along with various auxiliary, utility, and environmental protection facilities; in Phase 2, another new low-rank coal pyrolysis upgrading unit with an annual capacity of 3 million tons, a comprehensive utilization unit for raw gas (for syngas production) with a capacity of 90,000 m3/h, an LNG plant with an annual capacity of 80,000 tons, a methanol and acetic acid production plant with annual capacities of 180,000/350,000 tons, along with various auxiliary, utility, and environmental protection facilities.
