    It was learned from Sinopec that the key research project of Sinopec, "Development and Industrial Application of Light Crude Oil Cracking Technology Development and Industrial Application" was successful, which can directly convert crude oil into ethylene, propylene and other chemicals, realizing the first domestic industrial application of crude oil steam cracking technology.


    Wang Zizong, deputy chief engineer of Sinopec, said that crude oil steam cracking technology is one of the routes of "oil conversion".

    At present, only ExxonMobil and Sinopec in the world have successfully realized the industrial application of this technology


    Ethylene is the basic raw material of chemical products, known as the "mother of the petrochemical industry", and one of the important symbols to measure the development level of a country's petrochemical industry


    Wang Zizong said that in the next step, Sinopec plans to carry out the development and engineering design of a complete set of technology for producing ethylene by steam cracking of one million tons of crude oil in Xinjiang Tahe Refinery Company, and build an industrial demonstration plant for directly producing chemicals from crude oil
    .
    In the large-scale ethylene project planned in the future, the crude oil steam cracking technology will be included in the important technology comparison and selection scheme, which will provide strong support for alleviating the contradiction between supply and demand in the industry, assisting the transformation and upgrading of enterprises, and contribute to the realization of the "dual carbon" goal
