On July 16, 2008, as the first truck loaded with over 20 tons of food-grade liquid carbon dioxide meeting international quality standards pulled out of China Huaneng Group Beijing Thermal Power Co., Ltd., it marked the successful first-time startup of China’s first food-grade carbon dioxide production line for coal-fired power plants, which was independently developed and designed by our company. Leaders from relevant government departments, China Huaneng Group, and other related enterprises, as well as our company’s General Manager Shen Jianchong, attended the commissioning ceremony.
The carbon dioxide waste gas recovery and utilization project at China Huaneng Group Beijing Thermal Power Co., Ltd. is part of the international cooperation section of the 2007 Joint Statement on Climate Change and Energy Issues between the governments of China and Australia, and it is also a key component of the “Green Olympics” initiative during the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The project primarily consists of two parts: the recovery and purification of CO₂ from flue gas. Our company was primarily responsible for the engineering design, equipment manufacturing, and installation and commissioning of the food-grade CO₂ purification system. Leveraging our strong technical capabilities and advanced technological advantages, we completed the entire process from project design to installation and commissioning, successfully achieving the goal of a successful first-time startup. According to tests conducted by relevant authoritative institutions, the food-grade carbon dioxide produced by this system achieved a purity of 99.997%, and the other 21 quality indicators all met or exceeded the requirements of the new national standard for liquid carbon dioxide as a food additive (GB10621-2006), the International Soft Drink Association (ISBT) standards, and the standards of Coca-Cola and PepsiCo, receiving approval from the client, China Huaneng Group Beijing Thermal Power Co., Ltd.
The successful commissioning of this project marks a significant milestone: our company’s food-grade carbon dioxide production technology and equipment, which have been widely applied in ammonia synthesis plants, ethanol plants, chemical plants, hydrogen peroxide plants, ethylene plant tail gas, oilfield gas, and carbon dioxide gas fields, have now successfully expanded into the field of carbon dioxide tail gas recovery and utilization in coal-fired power plants.
The successful construction of China Huaneng Group Beijing Thermal Power Co., Ltd.’s demonstration project—the nation’s first CO₂ capture and purification facility at a coal-fired power plant—holds significant implications for the sustainable development of China’s coal-fired power industry and the building of a resource-conserving and environmentally friendly society. The food-grade CO₂ production technology meeting international quality standards, which played a crucial role in this project, is a nationally patented technology independently developed by our company with substantial investment and fully independent intellectual property rights. This technology is at the leading domestic and internationally advanced level and received a grant from the National Innovation Fund in July 2006. With the recovery and utilization of CO₂ from flue gas in the coal-fired power industry, this technology will play an increasingly significant role in China’s energy conservation, emissions reduction, and resource recycling.
During the project’s construction, our company received strong support and cooperation from Huaneng Group, Xi’an Thermal Power Research Institute, Hubei Academy of Chemical Sciences, Shandong Electric Power Construction Corporation, Dalian Bingshan Co., Ltd., Bengbu Zhengda Compressor, Yuhang Chuan Kong, and the Chongqing Chuan Yi Hangzhou Office. We hereby extend our sincere gratitude to the leaders and experts of these partner organizations!
