The Wanhua New Materials Low-Carbon Industrial Park project is invested and constructed by Wanhua Group, with an overall planning of 11.48 square kilometers, a total investment of 126 billion yuan, and an annual output value of 180 billion yuan after completion and operation. The plan is to be implemented in three phases. The first phase covers an area of 2.21 square kilometers and has a total investment of 31.6 billion yuan. It mainly builds high-performance new material integration projects and produces propylene and ethylene downstream products. The second phase covers an area of 4.33 square kilometers, with a total investment of 45.5 billion yuan. It mainly produces high-end optical materials, special engineering plastics, polyolefin elastomers (POE) and other key materials. The third phase covers an area of 4.94 square kilometers, with a total investment of 48.9 billion yuan. It mainly produces high-end products such as high-end special polyester, degradable plastics, and bio-based new materials.
Wanhua New Materials Low Carbon Industrial Park Project
The first phase of the project is led by the world’s top-scale propane dehydrogenation, and the downstream includes propylene oxide units, acrylic acid and ester units, polyether units, etc.; and realizes material interconnection with Wanhua Yantai Industrial Park through long-distance pipelines. The first phase of the project is a major provincial implementation project in 2022 and 2023. Construction started in March 2022, and a total of 3,896 acres of land have been approved. At present, the maintenance station office building, ground source heat pump system, and maintenance workshop have been put into use. The main structure of the warehouse has been completed, and orders for 116 long-lead equipment have been completed. A total of 1 billion yuan has been invested. It is planned to be delivered in mid-June 2024. After reaching capacity, the annual output value will be 27 billion yuan, with profits and taxes of 5.5 billion yuan. The second phase of the project is a major provincial implementation project in 2023. The 6,500 acres of land quota is planned to be approved in the near future. It is planned to be implemented simultaneously with the first phase of the project in the first half of 2023.
On the afternoon of the 8th, the observation group came to the French Air Liquide Yantai manufacturing base project in Penglai District for on-site observation.
It is reported that the Air Liquide Yantai manufacturing base project is the only high-end equipment manufacturing base project deployed in the Asia-Pacific region by Air Liquide, a Fortune 500 company in the world. It is also the first hydrogen energy equipment manufacturing base built in China. It mainly produces High-end air separation equipment such as air distillation towers and air separation cold boxes and hydrogen energy industry related equipment. After the project reaches full production, it can achieve annual sales revenue of 2 billion yuan, tax revenue of 240 million yuan, and 50% of the products be exported.
The French Air Liquide China manufacturing base project is an important part of the Air Liquide Group’s future strategic planning. It is also the group’s most important engineering and manufacturing base in the next 20 years to “base itself in China and serve the world”. The total investment in the first phase is US$60 million (51 million euros) . After three hundred days of hard work, it was fully completed three months ahead of schedule, becoming a new benchmark for Penglai project construction.
This project has four major characteristics: First, it has high air separation manufacturing capacity. Capable of manufacturing ultra-large air separation equipment with the world’s largest production capacity of 5,000 tons/day. Secondly, the level of process technology is high. It uses more than 120 patented technologies such as vertical double-layer radial flow to produce air separation core devices. The processes of structured packing, adsorption purification, low-temperature distillation and internal compression are advanced and efficient. The third is the high purity of the separated gas. The air separation equipment produced by the project can separate high-purity oxygen and argon, as well as ppb-level (one part per billion) ultra-high-purity nitrogen (purity reaches 99.999999%), meeting the stringent gas purity requirements of the integrated circuit and chip industry Require. Finally, the product has high operational reliability. The most advanced automation control technology is used to ensure that each unit device always operates at the best and most economical point, ensuring high stability and reliability of the equipment.
