The Yihua chlor-alkali new energy project located in Baiyang Industrial Park in Yichang High-tech Zone started in March this year. After nearly two months of construction, the construction of 1.6 kilometers of factory roads has been completed.

Recently, the reporter saw at the scene that more than 50 large-scale machinery and equipment and more than 300 builders were seizing the fine weather to carry out underground foundation construction.

According to Liu Jie, head of the Engineering Management Office of Yihua Chlor-Alkali New Energy Project, the most important task at present is pile foundation construction. There are a total of 1200 piles, and now 150 have been completed. It is expected that all construction will be completed by the end of the month. The project has a total of 35 units, 9 units that meet the construction conditions are currently undergoing foundation excavation and superstructure construction is expected to begin at the end of July.

According to the plan, the project will complete the main structure construction by the end of August this year and enter the equipment installation stage in September. Time is tight and tasks are heavy. Special work teams have been set up at the three levels of urban and town to provide front-line services to ensure the land acquisition and demolition of the project and the guarantee of water, electricity, roads, gas and other factors, so as to win time for project construction; the project department strengthens overall planning and organizes efficiently Construction, racing against time and progress.

It is understood that Yihua chlor-alkali new energy project will mainly undertake the caustic soda production capacity of Yihua Group's Xiaoting Park and Yidu Park. The main products are 200,000 tons of caustic soda and 100,000 tons of chlorinated polyethylene. At the same time, it will produce related downstream products to move towards high-end and green.

"The project is based on green, low-carbon, recycling and intelligence. Among them, caustic soda adopts the world's most advanced process equipment technology, and its energy consumption reaches a first-class level; based on existing raw materials, it develops and produces multiple varieties and high-end electrolyte additives for new energy vehicles; Cooperate with the special power team of Tsinghua University to develop hydrogen energy and supply hydrogen energy ships, hydrogen energy vehicles and other fields. Develop new materials and apply them to high-end fields such as batteries and rubber." said Liu Chao, director of the Technology Department of Yihua Chlor-alkali New Energy Project.

The project is scheduled to be completed and put into operation in August 2025. After completion, it is expected to achieve an annual output value of 5 billion yuan and profits and taxes of 500 million yuan. Source: Hubei Daily
