At 11:30 on March 2, the resumption ceremony for the 300,000-ton-per-year EVA production facility and the entire plant as part of China National Petroleum Corporation’s Turpan 1.2 million tons per year Phase II ethylene production project, which is designed to be green and low-carbon, was held at the site of the EVA facility. Li Ji, the company’s deputy general manager and executive deputy commander of the commissioning headquarters for the Tarim Phase II ethylene project, announced the official resumption of work on the project. Applause erupted at the scene and salutes were fired, marking the activation of the \"fast-forward button\" for resuming work on this project. To date, all the auxiliary units of the Tarim Phase II ethylene project have been put into operation. The main production units for ethylene, polypropylene, etc. have been successfully mechanically completed, and various construction tasks are progressing steadily, laying a solid foundation for the successful commissioning of the plant upon its first feed-in. The 300,000 tons per year EVA plant that resumed operations on that day is the only unit in the Tarim Phase II ethylene project to employ imported process technology. It features high temperature and pressure, a long construction period, and high installation precision, making it a tough challenge that must be overcome this year as part of the project’s completion efforts.
