  • 0
  • 1

[Project Background] China Shenhua Ningxia Coal Industry Group (Ningmei) has constructed the world's first million-ton-scale direct coal liquefaction (DCL) demonstration plant in Ordos, achieving the world's first commercial operation, with its technology at a globally leading level. Coal-rich countries such as South Africa, Mongolia, India, and Kazakhstan have shown strong interest in introducing this technology.

[Role of Chinese Enterprises] Shenhua Group/Ningmei promotes direct coal liquefaction (DCL) or indirect coal liquefaction (ICL) technology to overseas resource-rich countries (such as Kazakhstan, Mongolia, India, etc.) through technology licensing and process package export, providing complete process packages, basic engineering design, and technical services.

[Scope of Services] L1 Technology Licensing/Process Package + L2 Basic Engineering Design (FEED), covering core technical documents and basic design support for key units such as coal slurry preparation, hydrogenation liquefaction, and product fractionation.

[Typical Significance] Shenhua's coal-to-liquids technology is the world's only direct coal liquefaction technology that has achieved commercial operation. Its technology promotion represents the independent innovation achievements of China's chemical technology in the world's most advanced coal chemical field, possessing extremely high technical barriers and intellectual property value.
