Shanghai Petrochemical adjusts product structure to increase production of ethylene oxide

From March to mid-May, Shanghai Petrochemical made every effort to respond to the epidemic, actively optimized the product structure of two ethylene glycol units, increased the production of ethylene oxide with good benefits, reduced the output of ethylene glycol, and tried every means to open up sales channels to ensure that the units are not shut down and efficient.
maximized, and the production and sales of ethylene oxide remained at a good level
.

Two sets of ethylene glycol plants in Shanghai Petrochemical use ethylene as raw material to produce ethylene oxide and ethylene glycol
.
Since March, due to the impact of the epidemic, road transportation has been seriously hindered
.
Shanghai Petrochemical Planning Department, Chemical Industry Department and other departments communicate with each other on a daily basis, and strive to achieve maximum output, sales and benefits with limited raw materials, loads, and storage
.

Stable production is the greatest benefit
.
The No.
1 ethylene glycol unit has entered the end of the production cycle, and the ability of equipment, catalysts, etc.
to withstand production fluctuations has decreased
.
To this end, the installation personnel strengthened production operation management, strengthened equipment inspection, process parameter monitoring, and carried out special care management for key equipment such as refining towers and reboilers
.

They focus on increasing production and sales of ethylene oxide to improve efficiency
.
Recently, the benefit of ethylene oxide is better than that of ethylene glycol.
The company will increase the production of ethylene oxide as the focus of efficiency enhancement, continue to increase the production load of ethylene oxide and reduce the output of ethylene glycol, while achieving the production material balance.
, effectively reducing the impact of the epidemic on the efficiency of the device
.

Ethylene oxide is a hazardous chemical with extremely high requirements for storage and transportation
.
While increasing the production of ethylene oxide, Shanghai Petrochemical has actively sought the support of relevant departments in Shanghai to open up road transportation channels; it has strengthened linkages with downstream enterprises that have resumed work and production to increase product sales
