Xuanli Environmental Protection Energy’s 500,000-ton-per-year coal tar hydrogenation project 1. Project name: Xinhua Xuanli Environmental Protection Energy Co., Ltd.’s 500,000-ton-per-year coal tar hydrogenation project 2. Location: Within the industrial cluster park of Naomaohu Farm, the 13th Division of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, to the east of the Yinan Highway, about 5.5 km south of Naomaohu Town in Yiwu County, Hami. 3. Construction content and scale: Utilizing coal tar and raw gas produced by the existing clean coal manufacturing enterprises in the park as raw materials, a new 500,000 tons/year tar hydrogenation unit, a 45,000 Nm3/h PSA hydrogen production unit (including sulfur recovery), a 150,000 tons/year acidic water stripping unit, and an ammonia purification unit will be built, along with supporting utility, auxiliary, and environmental protection facilities. Upon completion of the project, the main products will include: 78,400 tons per year of naphtha, 265,300 tons per year of low-viscosity diesel, and 87,700 tons per year of heavy diesel ； By-products include: 28,900 tons per year of tail oil, 10,300 tons per year of liquefied gas, 3,800 tons per year of liquid ammonia, 2,800 tons per year of sulfur, and 69,864 Nm3/h of purge gas (10,063 Nm3/h of which is used as fuel gas for this project). All the office and living facilities for this project rely on the Hami Coal Chemical Industry Waste Gas Comprehensive Utilization Project located on the north side of the project area. The total investment in the project amounts to 1.2479 billion yuan, of which 32.73 million yuan is allocated to environmental protection measures, accounting for 2.62% of the total investment. The project has now passed the second environmental impact assessment public notice process. Does anyone know anything about this project? Which catalyst technology and process is being used?
Looking at the product structure, it’s not a suspended bed; it resembles those from Changling
It should be the technology of Shengbang; the fixed bed should be…
The promotional materials updated online by Changling in July 2015 only mentioned that \"Henan Longcheng Group has decided to use this technology to build a coal tar hydrogenation facility with an annual capacity of 2.4 million tons (800,000 tons per unit)\"； Gansu Honghui Energy (a joint venture between Jiugang and Guanghui) has also decided to use this technology to build an industrial facility with an annual capacity of 500,000 tons. ”The Xuanli Environmental Protection project was not mentioned. Furthermore, for the plant of similar scale, with an annual production capacity of 500,000 tons, that Changling built for Gansu Honghui Energy, the product composition is as follows: 118,100 tons of No. 1 hydrogenated oil (naphtha), 310,000 tons of No. 2 hydrogenated oil (diesel); the by-products include 5,500 tons of liquefied gas, 14,700 tons of dry gas and hydrogenation tail oil, and 500 tons of sulfur ； It doesn’t match what Xuanli Environmental Protection says either.
There is no promotion for this project on the websites of Shaanxi Coal Shanghai Shengbang or Shanghai Xinyou.
The coal used in Xuanli and Jiugang’s projects should be the same; if the production volumes differ, it’s likely that the two companies are responsible for production
Isn’t it listed in Xuanli’s environmental impact assessment announcement? Or if a feasibility study can be found, it will be possible to know whose technology it is
The environmental impact assessment public notice only mentions the design firm responsible for the assessment; the feasibility study report could not be found.
All of them use the low-grade coal from Naomaohu in Hami and Yiwu counties. Shanghai Xinyou also built for Guanghui in Hami a \"10-million-ton/year dry distillation plant for lump coal, a hydrogen production plant with a capacity of 135,000 standard cubic meters per hour, a 1.6-million-ton/year coal tar hydrogenation plant, as well as related supporting facilities.\" It’s not clear why the project carried out in cooperation between Guanghui and Jiugang has to be conducted more than 400 kilometers away in Gansu; processing the coal on-site would save a lot on transportation costs.
Naomao Lake is short of water, so Guanghui built a railway specifically to transport coal out from there
Many polycyclic compounds found in coal tar are unavailable from petroleum; with the right technology, the added value of further processing coal tar is much higher than that obtained through hydrogenation. It’s a shame to waste such valuable resources – the Germans would be heartbroken if they saw this. . .
