Thread Content

I. Basic Information of the Project
Project Name: Upgrading and Transformation Project of Shanxi Lubao Group Coking Co., Ltd.’s Stamping Coking Plant with an Annual Capacity of 1.87 Million Tons and Coking Chamber Height of 6.78 Meters
Construction Entity: Shanxi Lubao Group Coking Co., Ltd. (a leading private coal coking enterprise in Shanxi)
Location: Lucheng Economic and Technological Development Zone, Changzhi City, Shanxi Province (Lubao Industrial Park)
Project Code: 2604-140000-89-02-836930
Total Investment: RMB 2.648 billion
Construction Period: April 2026 – October 2026 (7-month construction timeline)
Filing Status: Approved by the Shanxi Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology on April 2, 2026; publicly announced on April 8, 2026

II. Construction Scale and Content
Construction Scale: Annual production capacity of 1.87 million tons of coke (in compliance with capacity replacement regulations)
Main Equipment: Construction of two new JNDX3-6.78 type large-scale stamping coke ovens, each with 70 chambers and a height of 6.78 meters
Supporting Projects: A 260 t/h dry quenching unit for coke (utilizing waste heat to generate electricity); ultra-low emission facilities including flue gas desulfurization and denitrification systems, dust control systems for coal charging and coke pushing, and VOCs treatment systems; coal preparation, coke screening, coal gas purification, as well as cold tar separation, electrostatic precipitation, desulfurization, and ammonia distillation systems; integration of waste heat from dry quenching into the existing power plant for comprehensive utilization

III. Sources of Production Capacity (Compliant Replacement)
Capacity is obtained through approved capacity replacement measures by the Shanxi Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology:
– 240,000 tons from Zhongxin Coking in Yu County
– 1.35 million tons from Shanxi Taoyuan Jiabao New Materials
– 216,000 tons derived from internal capacity reduction efforts
– 64,000 tons of legally permitted additional capacity
Combined, these sources provide a total compliant coking capacity of 1.87 million tons per year

IV. Project Positioning and Significance
Industry Type: Coal chemical industry (coal coking); involves capacity replacement and upgrading to larger-scale equipment
Core Objectives: Phase out outdated small-scale coke ovens; construct modern large-scale 6.78-meter-high coke ovens to achieve energy conservation, carbon reduction, environmental protection improvements, and higher-value utilization of coal gas
Industrial Chain Support: Supply stable, high-quality coke and coal gas to Lubao’s “Coal–Coke–Chemical–New Materials” industrial chain (including caprolactam, nylon, and high-end carbon materials)
Policy Alignment: Meets Shanxi Province’s strategic goals for the coal coking industry, namely “large-scale equipment adoption, green and low-carbon development, and integrated circular economy practices”
