Wuhai Anlun New Technology Co., Ltd. Carbon-based New Materials Comprehensive Application Project

Thread Content

Wuhai Anlun New Technology Co., Ltd. was established in December 2022 and is located in the Low-Carbon Industrial Park of the Wuhai High-Tech Industrial Development Zone. Wuhai Anlun New Technology Co., Ltd. registered the comprehensive application project for carbon-based new materials in November 2024, and made changes to the registration documents related to this project on October 22, 2025. The project is constructed in two phases. The total production capacity of the plant includes a carbon black production unit with an annual capacity of 280,000 tons, a coal pyrolysis unit for coal upgrading with an annual capacity of 2.63 million tons, a high-temperature coal tar processing unit with an annual capacity of 300,000 tons, a low-temperature coal tar processing unit with an annual capacity of 150,000 tons, an LNG production unit with an annual capacity of 150,000 tons, along with various supporting facilities and environmental protection systems. In December 2025, the Inner Mongolia Department of Ecology and Environment approved the environmental impact assessment for Phase 1 of the project. The main construction elements included a carbon black production facility with an annual capacity of 171,000 tons, a coal pyrolysis facility with an annual capacity of 1.2 million tons for coal upgrading, a high-temperature coal tar processing facility with an annual capacity of 300,000 tons, a low-temperature coal tar processing facility with an annual capacity of 150,000 tons, as well as supporting auxiliary facilities and environmental protection systems. The planned start date for Phase 1 is March 2026. Aerial view of the project’s effects. Image source: Wuhai Natural Resources Bureau. This evaluation pertains to the second-phase project, whose main construction components include a carbon black production facility with an annual capacity of 109,000 tons, a coal pyrolysis facility for coal upgrading with an annual capacity of 1.43 million tons, and an LNG facility with an annual capacity of 150,000 tons. Most of the supporting utilities are based on those already approved for the first phase, with only a small portion being newly built. Based on the chemical composition and physicochemical properties of low-rank coal, the project first employs low-temperature pyrolysis technology to separate the coal into different fractions, converting it into gas, liquid, and solid phases. Subsequently, these various pyrolysis products are utilized in a differentiated manner, depending on their physicochemical properties, through further processing at different stages.
