On May 16, Huaheng Energy’s 104,000 tons/year BDO production line 3 and 46,000 tons/year PTMEG production line 4 were successfully put into operation, plus the two 104,000 tons/year BOD production lines and three 46,000 tons/year PTMEG production lines that have been completed and put into operation before, Huaheng Energy’s BDO production capacity reached 312,000 tons/year, and PTMEG production capacity reached 184,000 tons/year. At present, the annual output of PTMEG of Huaheng Energy Company ranks first in the country, and the production volume of PTMEG single line has also reached the international leading level.
Project Overview
Inner Mongolia Huaheng Energy Technology Co., Ltd. has a total investment of about 10.5 billion yuan in PTMEG and PBAT new material industry chain integration project, located in Wuhai City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, low-carbon industrial park, covering a total area of 2,700 acres. The project uses the abundant limestone resources and coal resources in Wuhai City to produce BDO by alkyne method, which is an important chemical raw material for the synthesis of PTMEG.
The construction content of the project includes a 3×104,000 t/a BDO (1,4-butanediol) unit, a 4×4,000 t/a PTMEG (polytetrahydrofuran) unit, a 60,000 t/a PBAT (polyadipic acid/butylene terephthalate) unit, a 28,000m3/h natural gas hydrogen production unit, and a 3×2,400 t/a formaldehyde unit. After the project is completed and put into operation, it will realize the complete industrial chain of “coal/limestone-BDO-degradable plastic/spandex”.
Relying on the two industrial clusters of “coal chemical industry” and “acetylene chemical industry” with obvious regional competitive advantages that have been formed in Wuhai, Huaheng Energy uses rich limestone resources and coal resources to produce BDO by alkyne method, and builds a whole industrial chain from coal to PTMEG, which greatly enhances the added value of products. The project is expected to have an average annual operating income of 11 billion yuan and an average annual profit and tax of 1 billion yuan, which can drive the employment of more than 2,000 people.
