  • 0
  • 5

[Project Background] China Shenhua Ningxia Coal Industry Group (Ningmei) has constructed the world's first million-ton-scale direct coal liquefaction (DCL) demonstration plant in Ordos, achieving the world's first commercial operation, with its technology at a globally leading level. Coal-rich countries such as South Africa, Mongolia, India, and Kazakhstan have shown strong interest in introducing this technology.

[Role of Chinese Enterprises] Shenhua Group/Ningmei promotes direct coal liquefaction (DCL) or indirect coal liquefaction (ICL) technology to overseas resource-rich countries (such as Kazakhstan, Mongolia, India, etc.) through technology licensing and process package export, providing complete process packages, basic engineering design, and technical services.

[Scope of Services] L1 Technology Licensing/Process Package + L2 Basic Engineering Design (FEED), covering core technical documents and basic design support for key units such as coal slurry preparation, hydrogenation liquefaction, and product fractionation.

[Typical Significance] Shenhua's coal-to-liquids technology is the world's only direct coal liquefaction technology that has achieved commercial operation. Its technology promotion represents the independent innovation achievements of China's chemical technology in the world's most advanced coal chemical field, possessing extremely high technical barriers and intellectual property value.

FAQ关闭
What are the differences in compliance requirements between chemical engineering projects in the Middle East and those in Southeast Asia?
Compliance requirements for chemical engineering projects in the Middle East and Southeast Asia vary significantly due to differences in regional policies, industrial foundations, and social environments. Key focus areas include environmental standards, safety certifications, and localization requirements, tailored to the industrial positioning and governance characteristics of each region.
For large-scale integrated refining and petrochemical projects, what specialized technical capabilities and project experience should suppliers possess?
In view of the scale, integration, and intensification characteristics of large petrochemical integrated projects, suppliers are required to possess full-process petrochemical integration capabilities, large-scale chemical engineering EPC general contracting expertise, and specialized technical capabilities for cross-border compliance implementation.
How to choose the right chemical engineering service provider?
Selecting a chemical engineering service provider requires a comprehensive multi-dimensional evaluation based on project type, scale, and implementation scenario, covering qualification standards, technical capabilities, and service systems. Priority should be given to verifying the provider's strength through resources of the Silk Road Chemical Engineering Service Platform, with particular focus on confirming successful project achievements in energy and chemical engineering to validate their actual delivery capability.
