It was reported on March 1 that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, Xinjiang will implement a new round of major technological transformation and upgrading projects for traditional industries to continuously extend the industrial chain and make the coal and coal chemical industry green, environmentally friendly and sustainable.
During the period, Guoneng Xinjiang Chemical Co., Ltd., located in the Ganquanbao Economic and Technological Development Zone in Urumqi, is upgrading and upgrading the methanol-to-olefin plant tail gas upgrading project. It is understood that the methanol-to-olefin plant uses coal as a raw material, and then synthesizes methanol to produce ethylene, propylene and other products. These products are mainly used to produce films, pipes, plates, wires and cables. It is expected to be put into use around August this year. After being put into use, the concentration of flue gas emission particulate matter will drop significantly.
It is understood that the predicted reserves of coal resources in Xinjiang are 2.19 trillion tons, accounting for more than 39.3% of the predicted reserves of coal resources in the country. During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, Guoneng Xinjiang Chemical Co., Ltd. will rely on coal resources in Zhundong, Tuokexun and other places to further increase the research and innovation of coal-to-olefin technology, and continue to develop structured, specialized and customized products. Extend the downstream industrial chain of coal to olefins.
Modern coal chemical industry refers to the coal processing and transformation industry that uses coal as the main raw material to produce clean fuels and basic chemical raw materials. During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, Xinjiang will vigorously support the development of modern coal and coal chemical industries, such as coal-to-liquid, coal-to-gas, coal-to-olefins, and coal cascade utilization.
As an important natural gas producer in Xinjiang, Yili Xintian Coal Chemical Co., Ltd. always adheres to the leadership of scientific and technological innovation, has carried out more than 20 scientific research studies, and implemented nearly 50 major technological transformation projects. In 2020, the company's annual natural gas output will exceed 1.9 billion cubic meters.
During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the company will carry out research on the extension of the upstream and downstream industrial chain of coal-to-gas projects, further develop coal-to-gas derivatives, optimize the industrial layout, and gradually form coal-to-gas as the main industry, coal-to-gas related and derivative products Products complement the overall industrial layout, and strive to achieve an annual output of 2 billion cubic meters of natural gas by the end of the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. Relying on the existing equipment and facilities to develop environmental protection, gradually solve the reduction of hazardous waste, and improve the disposal capacity of hazardous waste. Scientific and technological innovation, through the transformation of automation system and continuous innovation of equipment, realize smart coal chemical industry.
Ma Fangwei, deputy director of the Raw Material Industry Division of the Department of Industry and Information Technology of Xinjiang Autonomous Region, stated that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, Xinjiang will steadily develop coal and coal chemical resource-intensive industries, and accelerate the promotion of modern coal chemical and electric power, petroleum, chemical, chemical fiber, and metallurgical industries. The integrated development of industries such as, building materials and new energy.
"Accelerate the transformation and upgrading of the traditional coal chemical industry in the autonomous region, actively extend the industrial chain, develop in the direction of high-end, refined, and new materials, realize the transformation of products from primary raw material products to high-end new materials, and focus on the development of Zhundong and Tuha Modern coal chemical industry and downstream extension industries such as coal-to-liquid, coal-to-gas, coal-to-olefins, coal-based comprehensive utilization, and coal-to-ethylene glycol. Other regions focus on industrial upgrading and transformation, and implement chain extension and supplementary chain projects. Strengthen the industrial chain and downstream extension industries; strengthen technology and equipment innovation, and continue to promote the low-carbon, clean, efficient and sustainable development of the modern coal chemical industry." Ma Fangwei said.
