The construction of the main equipment for the 200,000 tons per year liquefied gas processing project, funded by Dalian Menglian Petrochemical Co., Ltd., is nearly complete, with operations scheduled to begin by the end of the year. This project will become one of the first enterprises to operate in Dalian’s Xizhong Island Petrochemical Industrial Park. Reporters learned yesterday that after more than a year of intensive construction, the installation of the main equipment for the 200,000 tons per year liquefied gas processing project, funded by Dalian Menglian Petrochemical Co., Ltd., is nearly complete. The project is set to begin operations by the end of the year, and it will become one of the first enterprises to start operating in Dalian Xizhongdao Petrochemical Industrial Park. It is reported that the total investment in Menglian Petrochemical’s liquefied gas deep processing project is 200 million yuan. The main focus of the construction is the alkylation unit; once completed, it will use post-ether carbon tetrafluoride as the primary raw material to produce clean products primarily consisting of isooctane. The project is designed with a production capacity of 160,700 tons of isooctane and 30,300 tons of highly clean liquefied gas per year, generating an annual output value of around 1 billion yuan. In recent years, the reprocessing and further processing of liquefied petroleum gas have attracted attention from within and outside the industry. Its main product, isooctane, features low sulfur content, low vapor pressure, and clean combustion; it can effectively increase the octane rating of gasoline products, offering very promising market prospects. As one of the seven key petrochemical industry bases that receive priority support, the infrastructure construction, including utility facilities, at the Dalian Xizhongdao Petrochemical Industry Base is being accelerated. A number of high-quality projects worth over 100 million yuan have begun construction in this park. After just a few years of development, the Xizhongdao Petrochemical Industry Base has already taken shape. (Reporter Liu Fuguo)
