The first plant of the third generation of domestic aromatics technology was completed by CCCC

On January 20, the key project of the national industrial layout and the first industrial application device of Sinopec's third-generation aromatics technology - Jiujiang Petrochemical's 890,000-ton/year aromatics high-standard was completed
.
So far, China is not only one of the three countries in the world that has mastered this technology, but also the technology has reached the international leading level
.

The project adopts the third-generation aromatic hydrocarbon technology with independent intellectual property rights of Sinopec, and started construction on May 9, 2020.
It has the advantages of low investment cost, high catalyst application efficiency, and low energy consumption
.

The third-generation aromatic hydrocarbon technology is the first to develop and apply the single-column adsorption separation process and a new generation of adsorbent complete technology.
The utilization rate of the adsorbent is increased by 10%, the investment cost is reduced by nearly 20%, and the operation is more stable
.

In addition, through the comprehensive optimization and utilization of energy integration, such as the whole process optimization, integrated heat integration and efficient utilization of low temperature heat, the energy consumption of the aromatics complex unit is reduced by 30% compared with that of similar aromatics units, reaching the international leading level
