    On July 19, Shanghai Chemical Industry Park Industrial Gas Co.
    , Ltd.
    (SCIPIG), a subsidiary of Air Liquide Group, announced that it will invest more than 200 million euros to build two new hydrogen production plants and supporting facilities in Shanghai Chemical Industry Park
    .
    According to reports, the new plant will produce hydrogen and carbon monoxide to supply Covestro China, Shanghai Lianheng Isocyanate Co.
    , Ltd.
    (SLIC, a joint venture mainly invested by BASF and Huntsman) and other industrial and electronic client
    .
    The combined hydrogen production capacity of the two units will be around 70,000 Nm/h
    .
    The carbon dioxide captured and recovered by the supporting device can be recycled and used as the raw material for the production of carbon monoxide, so that the total production capacity of carbon monoxide can be increased to 28,000 standard/hour
    .
    The two steam methane reforming hydrogen production units (SMR) will be designed and constructed by Air Liquide Engineering and Manufacturing and are planned to be put into operation in batches, with the first phase to be commissioned by the end of 2023
    .
    The new unit will not only replace a third-party coal-to-gas unit, but will also be equipped with a carbon recycling unit and integrated into SCIPIG's existing local pipeline network
    .
    It can avoid 350,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions every year, which is equivalent to the carbon emissions from electricity consumption of 1 million Chinese households
    .
    The integration of the production unit into SCIPIG's local pipeline network will further enhance the reliability and flexibility of the gas supply
