On June 18th, China Coal Shaanxi Energy Chemical Group Co., Ltd. held the groundbreaking ceremony for the main facilities of the China Coal Yulin Coal Deep Processing Base Project, marking the official start of construction of this national application demonstration project, which has been listed as a typical case of environmental impact assessment by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment. Zhao Rongzhe, a member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee and the Chief Accountant of China National Coal Group, announced the start of the project.

The China Coal Yulin Coal Deep Processing Base Project is located in the Yuheng Industrial Park, Yulin, Shaanxi Province. The feasibility study estimates the investment to be 23.888 billion yuan. The main construction contents include 2.2 million tons/year of methanol and 900,000 tons/year of polyolefins. At the same time, the existing first phase of the coal chemical project will be optimized and upgraded, and 250,000 tons/year of LDPE/EVA chain extension and expansion as well as supporting projects will be constructed. The main facilities include air separation, gasification, purification, sulfur recovery, methanol synthesis, MTO, olefin separation, three sets of polyolefin and one set of EVA, etc.

This project has been listed by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment as a "Typical Case of Environmental Impact Assessment of Greenhouse Gas Emissions" for promotion. It is the first coal chemical project of a central enterprise to be selected and has undertaken two national application demonstration tasks: a 3,000-ton gasification semi-waste boiler process and a 40MW ultra-high power motor. Among them, the 3,000-ton gasification semi-waste boiler process can couple and utilize the saturated steam by-product of the device, which can not only reduce the consumption of fuel coal but also significantly extend the service life of the equipment. At the same time, in the field of coal chemical industry, a 40MW super-large domestic motor was applied for the first time, eliminating coal-fired boilers and significantly increasing the proportion of electrification.

Li Junjie, the Party Secretary and Chairman of China Coal Shaanxi Company, stated that since the project's planning and construction began, the company has always adhered to an integrated top-level optimization design. In terms of safety and environmental protection, green and low-carbon development, digital transformation, and innovation demonstration, it has cultivated the "winning genes" for high-quality development of the project, striving to create a leading industry for high-quality development. A high-quality demonstration project that is disruptive and never lags behind throughout its entire life cycle. In the future, the company will continue to make efforts in the construction of innovation platform capabilities, the application of industrial large models, and "AI+ empowerment", taking the lead in forging a safe, innovative, green and low-carbon development path for high-carbon industries. It will constantly provide new China Coal solutions and contribute the powerful strength of China Coal to ensuring national energy security, protecting the green mountains and clear waters, and promoting high-quality economic growth.

This project is an important supporting project for China National Coal Group to build a strategic base for comprehensive energy development in Inner Mongolia and Shaanxi. It shoulders the glorious mission and arduous task of being a national innovation demonstration project and for China National Coal Group to create a world-class coal chemical project, leading the high-quality development of the industry and promoting industrial transformation and upgrading. From the very beginning of its design, the project has paid close attention to relevant details such as safety, environmental protection and energy conservation. It conforms to the national industrial policies and development plans, and has good economic, social and environmental benefits. It is of great significance for China National Coal Group to promote high-quality development.

It is understood that China Coal Shaanxi Company adheres to the transformation and upgrading concept of professionalization, refinement, specialization and innovation. In accordance with the principles of "clean and efficient, green and low-carbon, innovation-driven, digital empowerment, multi-energy coupling and integrated operation", it has implemented the top-level optimization design for the entire life cycle of large-scale engineering projects for the first time in the industry. Led by the integration of scientific and technological innovation, the high-end development of technical equipment, and the digitalization of intelligent factories, a brand-new model of "developing coal, utilizing coal, and surpassing coal" is achieved. Through measures such as the integration of process technology, multi-energy complementary coupling, energy cascade utilization, and the interconnection of the first and second phases, material and energy consumption is significantly reduced, and the resource conversion rate is improved. Build a complete industrial chain from coal to methanol and then to polyolefin products, transforming from black to white.

According to the project schedule, it is expected that after its completion, trial operation and commissioning in 2026, it will contribute to the local economic and social development as well as the optimization and upgrading of the industrial structure. During the peak construction period, it can provide tens of thousands of jobs. China Coal Shaanxi Company further expands the new advantages of being a "chain leader" enterprise in the industrial chain, promotes the high-end, diversified, low-carbon development of coal chemical industry and the coupled development of coal, coal power and new energy, and builds a dense industrial chain and value chain.
