    The reporter recently saw the construction scene of the Luoyang Petrochemical 120,000 tons/year styrene project construction site


    .


    As the first styrene project in the province, the project as a whole includes a new 120,000-ton/year styrene plant, a power transformation and distribution room, as well as the supporting construction of a styrene tank farm, automobile and railway loading and unloading stations, etc.
    Ethylbenzene is used as the raw material, the product is styrene, and the by-products are benzene, toluene, styrene tar and dehydrogenation tail gas


    .


    Styrene is one of the important basic organic raw materials in the chemical industry.
    It bears the two basic energy sources of petroleum and coal, and the two major industries of synthetic resin and synthetic rubber.
    It is widely used in the production of plastic and synthetic rubber products, and its downstream product is polystyrene.
    , ABS, styrene-butadiene rubber, unsaturated plastic esters, etc.
    , are indispensable raw materials for the automotive industry, household appliances, daily necessities,


    etc.


    "The continuous advancement of this project will make an important contribution to alleviating the relevant supply-demand contradiction, helping enterprises to transform from oil refining to chemical industry, and promoting Luoyang to build a high-end petrochemical industry cluster of 100 billion yuan


    .


    Pan Dipei introduced that in recent years, with the development of automobile enterprises such as Yutong and Zhengzhou Nissan, the province has a large demand for engineering plastics


    .


    After nearly three years of repeated demonstrations, on September 2, 2019, the basic design of the 120,000-ton/year styrene project was approved by Sinopec Group Corporation.
    The project officially started in July this year and is progressing smoothly

    In recent years, the province's convenient transportation advantages and a series of functional ports have also provided favorable conditions for the promotion of the project


    .


    In addition, based on the adjustment of the refining structure and the completion and commissioning of the crude oil pipeline project, the company will also plan to implement a number of projects to penetrate the complete industrial chain of "aromatics-PTA-polyester-polyester fiber" and form a complete range of chemical products.
    Make Luoyang Petrochemical a high-end petrochemical benchmark in the central and western regions, and drive the transformation and upgrading of the petrochemical industry in Luoyang and even the whole province
