Criminals use transportation facilities to inject water into petroleum coke to earn "black money"

Petroleum coke is an important chemical raw material, which is widely used in graphite making, smelting and chemical industry
.
In order to make huge profits, lawbreakers have gone so far as to take advantage of transportation conveniences to increase and reduce the load by injecting water into petcoke, on the one hand, transporting water-injected petroleum coke to enterprises, and on the other hand, earning "black money" through private sales of weight-increasing petroleum coke, causing huge losses
to many chemical enterprises in Shanghai, Shandong and other places.
Not long ago, a fraud case of injecting water into petroleum coke to earn "black money" was cracked
in Zhenjiang.

Zheng Moujia, Zheng Mouyi each operates a cargo ship, these years have been transporting petroleum coke for chemical enterprises in Shanghai, Shandong and other places, in the transportation process, the two learned that petroleum coke and activated carbon, water absorption is very strong, if damp, the general surface can not be seen, after the fact only need to dry it, completely does not affect the use
.
Therefore, the two of them moved their crooked minds and thought of using water injection to increase weight and sell secretly to make huge profits
.

Between April and September 2021, during the water transportation, the two took advantage of the convenience to inject water into the petroleum coke they carried several times, sold the tonnage of petroleum coke with weight gain privately, and after arriving at the destination, they delivered
the petroleum coke with higher water content on board to the enterprise.

In July 2021, a petroleum coke purchasing enterprise in Zhenjiang reported that the weight of several thousand tons of petroleum coke after drying recently was reduced by more than 10%, and such losses were too outrageous, resulting in a sharp increase in production costs of
enterprises.

After investigation, the Zhenjiang Branch of the Yangtze River Shipping Public Security Bureau finally locked the "black heart boat" of Zheng Moujia and Zheng Mouyi, and promptly informed
the procuratorial organs.

In April this year, the Jinshan District Procuratorate reviewed and found that the criminal suspects Zheng Moujia and Zheng Mouyi defrauded the cargo owner of property by repeatedly injecting water into the molten petroleum coke to increase weight and then reduce the load, and delivered the petroleum coke with a high water content to the enterprise, the number of frauds was 7 times and 4 times, the amount involved was more than 2.
