The world's first 10,000-ton furanediformic acid production line has started construction
On September 10th, the world's first 10,000-ton furan diformic acid (FDCA) production line was laid the foundation in the eastern park of the Economic Development Zone, Tongling City, Anhui Province.
This project will adopt a full-process continuous technology, using low-cost sugars such as glucose and non-grain biomass enzymatic hydrolyzed sugar solution as raw materials. Through self-developed catalyst systems, continuous flow reaction equipment and fixed-bed oxidation devices, it will achieve efficient isomerization dehydration and air oxidation under mild conditions. With innovative catalytic technology and advanced synthesis processes, Promote the low-cost large-scale production of FDCA and the wide application of downstream furan-based bio-based new materials.
It is reported that the project is planned to have a total investment of approximately 1 billion yuan, covering an area of 85 mu, and is scheduled to be officially put into production by the end of 2025. After the project is completed and reaches its full production capacity, it will produce 15,000 tons of FDCA annually.
