[Industry Focus]:With a total investment of 1.25 billion yuan, 250000 tons of octanol in Anqing will be completed by the end of June.

On May 23, in Anqing High-tech Zone Anqing Refining and Chemical Shuguang Butanol Chemical Co., Ltd., the construction site of the 250000-ton octanol project was lined with tower cranes, large machinery was running at high speed, and more than 500 workers were installing pipelines and debugging equipment. The project was completed in June.

The project has a total investment of 1.25 billion yuan and covers an area of about 140 mu. It adopts the international advanced low-pressure carbonyl synthesis technology, with an annual output of 200000 tons of octanol and 22900 tons of isobutyraldehyde. By then, Shuguang Group's butyl octanol production capacity will reach 500000 tons. After the project is put into production, it is expected to increase sales revenue by 2.5 billion yuan and profits and taxes by 0.58 billion yuan per year.
"We leverage the resource advantages of the high-tech zone to work closely with Anqing Petrochemical, using the propylene they produce as our raw material, solving the problems of petrochemical product sales and Shuguang raw material supply, and also realizing the integration of the upstream and downstream of the chemical industry chain in the high-tech zone. At the same time, raw materials can be transported through the pipeline in the park, saving about 50 million yuan in transportation costs each year." Cao Jianlu, general manager of the company, said.
Historical progress of the project


in December 2022, Anqing Refining and Chemical Shuguang Butanol Chemical 250000 Tons/Year Octanol Project Energy Conservation Review Opinion Approval Administrative License Decision Public Announcement:
1717383529672.jpg

obtained a low-pressure carbonyl synthesis technology license from Johnson & Johnson and Dow.

On September 28, 2022, London, England, Zhuang Xin Wan Feng and Dow announced that Anqing Refining Shuguang Butanol Chemical Co., Ltd. ("Anqing Refining Shuguang") has obtained a license for its low-pressure carbonyl synthesis (LP OxoSM) technology to produce about 200000 tons of octanol and 25000 tons of isobutyraldehyde. This is the second set of low pressure carbonyl synthesis technology license provided to Anqing Refining and Chemical Shuguang Company.

Low pressure carbonyl synthesis (LP OxoSM) technology

low-pressure oxo synthesis technology is a low-pressure hydroformylation process that most commonly uses propylene and synthesis gas (a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide) to produce n-butyraldehyde and isobutyraldehyde. These butyraldehydes are then converted to octanol (2-EH), n-butanol, and isobutanol, which are mainly used in plasticizer applications, paint production, and specialty coatings and solvents, respectively. Other applications of low-pressure oxo synthesis technology include processes for the production of isononanol and dipropylheptanol, both of which are high-end plasticizer alcohols to replace 2-EH from mixed butene materials, and from carbon 11 to carbon 14 Fischer-Tropsch synthesis of olefins The process of producing carbon 12 to carbon 15 surfactant series alcohols. This technology can also convert heptene 1 extracted in Fischer-Tropsch products to comonomer grade octene 1.

On March 8, 2022, the signing ceremony of the EPC general contract for the 250000-ton octanol project of Anqing Refining and Chemical Shuguang Butanol Chemical Co., Ltd. was held.

Recent Butanol Project Dynamics

in recent years, with a number of refining integration, PDH and downstream and other industrial chain projects launched in batches, most of the key downstream derivatives of propylene are facing the risk of oversupply, and product profits are constantly being compressed or even operating at a loss. In contrast, butyl octanol is relatively profitable. Earlier, butyl octanol also faced supply pressure and profit meager market situation, after the outbreak of the epidemic to pull medical gloves and plasticizer raw materials demand surge, while the same period butyl octanol production capacity growth is slow, the balance of supply and demand thus broken, butyl octanol market then "high song".


Octanol optimization and safety promotion project started

on May 26, the Octanol Optimization and Safety Improvement Project of EPC General Contracting Project contracted by Bohai Chemical Engineering held a grand commencement ceremony at the project site.

The construction content of the project is mainly to build a set of octanol plant (the product is octanol 450000 tons/year, the by-product is isobutyraldehyde 50000 tons/year) and auxiliary facilities, the production plant mainly includes butyraldehyde unit, octanol unit, etc.

Wang Junming, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of Bohai Chemical Group, spoke on behalf of Bohai Chemical Group, hoping that both parties will make full use of their respective resource advantages to achieve strong alliances and complementary advantages, strive to strengthen key technological breakthroughs, accelerate the layout of emerging fields, and strengthen the research and development of new products and high-end products. In terms of the development of new quality productivity, Bohai Chemical Group will fully support the development of technical cooperation development and promotion centers.

Feasibility Study Review of Yan'an Energy Chemical Butanol Project

on April 22, Shaanxi Yanchang Petroleum Yan'an Energy and Chemical Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Yan'an Energy and Chemical Company") carbon 3 carbonylation deep processing project feasibility study report expert review meeting was successfully held in Xi'an.

1717383571300.jpg


It is reported that the carbon 3 carbonylation deep processing project relies on the company's existing propylene and synthesis gas to produce octanol, to achieve propylene industry strong chain, complementary chain, the formation of C4, C8, C10 product group. The meeting heard the report prepared by Beijing Petrochemical Engineering Co., Ltd. on the overall situation of the project feasibility study report.

Shaanxi Yanchang Yan 'an Energy Chemical uses kerosene gas as raw material, with 1.8 million tons of methanol, 600000 tons of methanol deep processing, 400000 tons of refinery light oil processing, 450000 tons of polyethylene, 250000 tons of polypropylene, 200000 tons of butyl octanol, 60000 tons of ethylene propylene rubber and other devices. In September 2018, the device opened the process.
