With the roar of machines, recently, the 2MW hydrogen fuel cell cogeneration demonstration project was successfully tested in Henan Energy Group Kaiyuan Chemical Co., Ltd. This marks that Henan Energy has opened up a new field of green development, a new track, and taken a step in the development of "hydrogen".

     hydrogen energy is the future green energy strongly supported by the state, and the hydrogen energy industry is the key development direction of China's emerging industries and future industries. In recent years, Henan Energy has kept pace with the times, strengthened the top-level design of enterprise development, attached equal importance to the optimization and upgrading of traditional industries and the cultivation of emerging industries, and vigorously promoted the construction of 2MW-level hydrogen fuel cell cogeneration demonstration projects, making the Baili mining area blow a "hydrogen" wind, making the pace of industrial transformation more "hydrogen" surplus, and providing a strong driving force for the high-quality development of enterprises and the green and low-carbon transformation of energy.

Vigorously promote speed increase and efficiency improvement

     "this project is the first attempt to use by-product hydrogen as a comprehensive utilization of energy. We strengthen overall dispatching, organize construction scientifically, comprehensively speed up the pace of project construction, and speed up the construction progress of the project on the premise of ensuring safety and quality." ensure early completion of the project, early production and early benefits. " Cheng Bingguo, the person in charge of the project and deputy general manager of Kaiyuan Chemical Industry, said.

     this project is a 2MW class hydrogen fuel cell cogeneration demonstration project that integrates hydrogen fuel purification and hydrogen energy power generation. Since the start of construction in June 2023, various departments of Kaiyuan Chemical Industry have made concerted efforts to overcome difficulties, grasp implementation, promote, grasp breakthroughs, anchor targets and meet difficulties to ensure that the project is effective as soon as possible.

     the company set up a special class to deal with the formalities, and the relevant functional departments work together to solve the formalities problems; set up a special class for supervision and assessment, lead the leaders, implement the progress in the factory, ensure that the pressure is transmitted layer by layer; set up a special class to strive for funds, coordinate the project office as a whole, cooperate closely with relevant departments, establish and improve the project fund declaration database, and ensure the steady progress of the project construction.

     the company inverted the construction schedule, wallchart operations, a clear time node to attack the key points, but forced the project construction to run out of "acceleration". Relevant departments adhere to problem orientation and node management, effectively enhance the consciousness and initiative of service project construction, on-site scheduling, on-site problem solving, to ensure that the project is completed, put into use as soon as possible, and output benefits.

"hydrogen" is loaded to go green.

     in recent years, Henan Energy focuses on extended chain, complementary chain and strong chain, striving to speed up industrial upgrading, taking a "hydrogen" step, and opening up new areas and new tracks for high-quality development.

     "the project uses the original emptied hydrogen as fuel and adopts advanced purification process to raise the purity of hydrogen from 99.5% to 99.999%, turning waste into treasure. High-purity hydrogen is of higher value and can be used in fuel cell generators to meet the company's electricity needs. " Cheng Bingguo said, "the heat generated by the hydrogen fuel cell power generation process can be used to preheat brine in existing chemical production plants, reducing the steam consumption needed for chemical production."

It is understood that the project has also developed filling column integrated equipment for hydrogen filling, equipped with advanced automatic metering and billing management system, breaking through the existing pipe valve filling and realizing real-time quantitative filling management. Through the DCS central integrated control system, the whole project can realize modern production of central control and comprehensive automation.

     "around the hydrogen energy industry chain application scene, we actively communicate with each other, and finally won the safety production procedures and industrial hydrogen product production license, laying the foundation for the hydrogen energy market." Zhang Youyi, general manager of Kaiyuan Chemical Industry, said.

Industrial upgrading can be expected in the future

     "We use surplus hydrogen for hydrogen fuel cell power generation, and collect the electricity generated by the distributed photovoltaic project and reuse it to the chemical industry power system of Henan Energy Coking Coal Company to form an 'electrified integrated' industry chain and build a circular economy system." Cheng Bingguo said.

 , it is understood that 99.999% high-purity hydrogen has been successfully produced for filling and sale, the realization of hydrogen power generation, and the supply of hydrogen stations are steadily advancing.

     "in the next step, we will continue to carry out in-depth research on hydrogen utilization system safety protection technology and hydrogen utilization system operation test technology, fully tap application scenarios and business models, create a win-win hydrogen energy ecosystem, and constantly accumulate kinetic energy and provide support for high-quality development of enterprises." Liu Junshi, party committee secretary and chairman of Kaiyuan Chemical Industry, said firmly. Source: Henan state-owned assets
