At present, coal prices have begun to fall, while the prices of urea, acetic acid and adipic acid have increased. We are still optimistic that the company’s performance will remain high in 2022.

After the unit is completed and put into operation, it will produce 300000 tons of dimethyl carbonate, 300000 tons of methyl ethyl carbonate and 50000 tons of diethyl carbonate per year.

At the same time, Dezhou base will build and put into operation 120000 ton PBAT project and 80000 ton nylon 66 project in the future, with a growth period.
