National Demonstration Project recognized by the National Development and Reform Commission!

In the Petroleum and Petrochemical Industrial Park of Shangku High-tech Industrial Development Zone, Korla City, the production and operation of PetroChina's Dushanzi Petrochemical Tarim ethane-to-ethylene project, which has just been put into production, is progressing steadily

In the finished product packaging warehouse in the factory area, 150 workers are in their respective positions, supervising different processes such as product bagging and sealing

At this moment, in the full-density polyethylene plant area, Shi Feihu, the equipment engineer of the ethylene engineering construction project management department of Dushanzi Petrochemical Company, is closely monitoring the operation status of the circulator compressor, bearing vibration, sealing, etc.

At present, Dushanzi Petrochemical Tarim Petrochemical Branch produces 70 tons of full density polyethylene and high density polyethylene (HDPE) per hour

The Dushanzi Petrochemical Tarim ethane-to-ethylene project relies on the rich natural gas resources in the Tarim Basin

Ethylene is one of the basic raw materials of petrochemical industry, and it is widely used.

The ethylene industry is the core of the petrochemical industry, and ethylene production is usually used as one of the important indicators to measure the development level of a country's petrochemical industry

Full-density polyethylene and high-density polyethylene produced by Dushanzi Petrochemical Tarim ethane-to-ethylene project are non-polar thermoplastic resins with high crystallinity.

Turning ethane into ethylene is the first application of "own resources + own technology" in China's ethylene industry

The project started construction in June 2019.

The Dushanzi Petrochemical Tarim ethane-to-ethylene project can effectively drive the development of the real economy, realize the direct benefit of resource development to the local area, drive the formation of an ethylene-led industrial cluster in southern Xinjiang, consolidate the industrial foundation of southern Xinjiang, and drive the economic development of southern Xinjiang
.

It is expected that the project will create an output value of 5 billion yuan each year, contribute 700 million yuan in taxes and fees, provide 1,200 direct jobs, and indirectly drive tens of thousands of jobs
