1. Project construction background:

The company has a synthetic ammonia production unit with an annual output of 550000 tons in Yiting chemical park, Yichang City, Hubei Province. The unit is a supporting unit for the production of chemical fertilizer and chemical products in Yichang factory of the company. The synthetic ammonia and methanol produced are used for the production of diammonium phosphate, pentaerythritol and other products in Yichang factory of the company. In response to the national Yangtze River protection policy, the company shut down 220000 tons of synthetic ammonia (capacity reserved, to be relocated) from 2016 to 2017, and the 330000 tons of synthetic ammonia plant still in operation must be relocated before the end of 2025. The above ammonia synthesis units that have been shut down for relocation and are in operation have backward process technology and high energy and material consumption, which are the main factors affecting the manufacturing cost of chemical fertilizer and fine chemical products in the past and now. It is necessary to take advantage of the relocation opportunity and use the advanced technology of the industry for transformation and upgrading.

According to the relevant requirements of the superior competent department, the company’s annual output of 660000 tons of diammonium phosphate and 100000 tons of insurance powder located in Yichang Yiting chemical park must be relocated to tianjiahe area of yaojiagang chemical park, Yichang City by the end of 2025. Meanwhile, the company has built trimethylolpropane unit, photoinitiator and supporting raw material projects in the above-mentioned Park, is building biodegradable material projects, plans to build iron phosphate, nickel sulfate and other projects, and needs to build large-scale ammonia alcohol units. In order to ensure the supply of synthetic ammonia, methanol and other products and heat required for the production of chemical fertilizer and chemical plants in yaojiagang Park, the company plans to build a technical transformation and relocation project with an annual output of 550000 tons of ammonia and alcohol.
