Gifted and intelligent "Song Yunhui", in line with the tide of the times, through trials and tribulations, grew into a chemical state-owned enterprises, technicians, business leaders.
This is the story told in the hit TV series "Big River, Big River".
In the story, the chemical industry people have persistence, perseverance, and change. Just like the sequel filming location - Ningbo Petrochemical Economic and Technological Development Zone (hereinafter referred to as Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone), harboring the same Song Yunhui pioneers and dreamers.
Located on the south coast of Hangzhou Bay, Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone was established in 1998, and was the second chemical park in China, and one of the first chemical parks in China to enter the "100-billion-dollar club".
With the rapid development of China's chemical industry, the chemical industry park into the reshuffle period. Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone has been ranked among the top three chemical parks in China for four consecutive years, with an output value above scale of 195.8 billion yuan in 2019, accounting for half of the output value of Ningbo Petrochemical Park.
On March 16 this year, Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone, as the first national economic and technological development zone in Zhejiang Province in terms of acreage benefit, was honored at the province's manufacturing high-quality development conference. At the same time, Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone won the first place in the comprehensive evaluation of the city's key development areas, as well as the first place in the comprehensive category of the city's key pre-projects evaluation.
How does hardcore acreage come about? One of the answers is high efficiency.
Extending the industrial chain
"At present, the total industrial output value of super-large and large chemical parks accounts for nearly 50% of the total industrial output value of chemical parks nationwide." Yang Ting, secretary-general of the Chemical Park Working Committee of the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation, believes that the clustering of chemical parks has become a trend.
However, just loading enterprises into chemical parks does not necessarily translate into benefits.
Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone, which covers 40 square kilometers, has always insisted on "mu production on heroes".
In 2019, Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone ranked second among the top 30 chemical parks of China Petrochemical Federation. The annual value added per mu was 2.182 million yuan, far exceeding the province's leading plan for the province's development zones to exceed 1.4 million yuan per mu in 2022.
Behind the data, is the consolidation of the petrochemical industry chain, improve the added value of products.
As one of the chemical parks with the most advanced development of petrochemical industry clusters, the highest degree of intensification, and the best development prospects in China, Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone has formed a large-scale petrochemical industry base led by refining and chemical integration, focusing on the development of the three major synthetic materials, basic chemical raw materials, and deep-processing and high-end fine chemicals, featuring petrochemical and chemical industries. The company's main focus is on the development of petrochemical and chemical industries.
Zhenhai Refining 23 million tons/year of oil refining and 1 million tons/year of ethylene, Zhongjin Petrochemical 2 million tons/year of aromatic hydrocarbons, Zhenhai Lyondell Chemical 300,000 tons/year of propylene oxide and 600,000 tons/year of styrene, LG Yongxing 700,000 tons/year of ABS resin in the park ...... to these large and medium-sized projects in the world's top 500, driving the petrochemical industry chain. 500 strong, driven by the development of the petrochemical industry chain, and actively extended to the downstream industry chain, focusing on the development of C2, C3, C4, aromatics industry chain ......
This allows the Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone into the hundreds of billions of dollars club.
The running never stops.
Beginning in 2018, Ningbo City decided to implement the "246" 10,000 billion industrial cluster cultivation project.
The so-called "246" refers to the cultivation of the formation of green petrochemical, automobile 2 world-class trillion yuan industrial clusters.
And to realize this trillion yuan, Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone shoulders the burden is not easy.
In the latest research organized by the Ningbo Municipal Government, the city's petrochemical industry is mainly concentrated in Zhenhai, Beilun and Daxie three large areas. As of 2019, an area of 54.16 square kilometers realized a green petrochemical output value of 352.19 billion yuan, with a unit area output of 6.5 billion yuan per square kilometer.
The CPPCC members who participated in the research analyzed that the future of green petrochemical industry in Ningbo can actually use the space of about 60 square kilometers, taking into account the reality of the petrochemical industry in Ningbo based on the foundation of the industry's technological progress and other factors, according to the current available space, the full counting can only increase the value of the output of 540 billion yuan, from the trillion dollar target there is still a hundreds of billions of dollars of the output value of the gap.
How to fill the gap? In addition to solving hardware problems such as land, "high efficiency" is the most realistic way.
"As a scientific way to enhance the development of Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone in the full play of oil refining, ethylene, aromatics project leader at the same time, will actively integrate upstream and downstream industries **** with the development. Such as the integration of green petrochemical and automobile manufacturing." Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone, executive deputy director of the management committee, deputy secretary of the party working committee Xu Wenhua said in an interview with the media.
Specifically, the park is mainly combined with the cultivation of green petrochemical trillion yuan industrial cluster in Ningbo, grasp the automotive industry, green petrochemical development trend, and actively introduce high-end petrochemical products to fill the gaps in the domestic market, and benchmark the international advanced parks (Jurong Industrial Park in Singapore, Rotterdam in the Netherlands, etc.), to promote the extension of petrochemical industry to the downstream, and strive to increase the rate of refinement in the park, to explore the integration development of the automotive industry with the automotive manufacturing sector. It is also trying to improve the refinement rate of the park and explore the integration development with automobile manufacturing and other fields.
Integrated development
In order to give enterprises the best hardware support, Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone did not eat a lot of "crab".
In 2003, there was no ready-made experience in the construction of pipeline corridors in the country, and the park specially organized a study tour to BASF Group in Germany.
Then, the first "crab" was born.
In 2008, the pipeline corridor known as "the first chemical logistics transportation pipeline in East Zhejiang" was completed and put into operation. It is 17.7 kilometers long, with a total investment of 260 million yuan, connecting port terminals and production parks, and has become an important public **** facilities to improve the efficiency of enterprises in the park.
With the development of the park, the demand for the corridor is increasing.
This year, the length of 1 kilometer of Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone, Haixiang Road, the main body of the pipeline corridor project completed. This marks the completion of its first maintenance-free public **** corridor.
Prior to this, the operator, Ningbo Anjie Chemical Logistics Co., Ltd. has built 28.6 kilometers of public **** corridors in the Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone, with a total length of more than 650 kilometers of pipelines laid, providing services for 34 enterprises.
For the annual liquid and industrial gas pipeline volume has reached 20 million tons, respectively, 600 million standard cubic meters of the park, the role of the corridor is pivotal.
"Pipeline corridor connecting enterprises, whether from the Ningbo Zhoushan Port Zhenhai Harbor District liquid chemical terminal to the park enterprises, or enterprises to enterprises between the transportation of raw materials, can be 'point to point' seamless delivery, effectively avoiding the emergence of 'running, bubbling, dripping, leaking' and other conventional transmission services. and leakage' and other drawbacks of conventional transportation methods." The general manager of Anjie Logistics, Mr. Cai Yinlong, said.
As the steel structure adopts an innovative hot dip galvanizing process, the design service life of the steel structure of the Haixiang Road Extended Pipeline Corridor Project can reach more than 50 years, and the structure is maintenance-free for more than 20 years, which effectively enhances the coefficient of safety of pipeline transportation in the pipeline corridor.
"Since July 2016, the implementation of the highest technical requirements in the park, the most stringent management of the pipeline requirements of the pipeline corridor erection, accelerating the park's high quality development of the public *** corridor, but also to help build the '246' trillion-dollar industrial clusters. " Cai Yinlong said.
The corridor is just a side of the integrated construction of the park.
At present, the park's water, electricity, heat, sewage, solid waste and other facilities, all adhere to the integrated construction, to achieve centralized water supply, heating, sewage and solid waste treatment.
According to reports, the park will invest hundreds of millions of dollars annually for the construction and improvement of public **** supporting facilities, focusing on solving the constraints and impact on the development of the enterprise's hardware short boards, the infrastructure construction to meet the development of enterprises to achieve a better change in the development of enterprises.
"We just want to keep tapping the utilization potential of each piece of land, enhance the efficiency of enterprise space utilization, and provide a solid hardware guarantee for the growth of acreage efficiency." The relevant person said.
Also because of this, the Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone industrial chain efficiency and regional environmental protection results in the forefront of similar domestic chemical zones, was included in the first batch of national new industrialization industry demonstration base.
"The current development trend of integration is obvious, the north of Hangzhou Bay is Shanghai and Jiaxing, the south has Ningbo, Zhoushan, Daxie, the future market competition is fierce. How we all position ourselves and seize the opportunity to maximize our advantages and achieve high-quality development is our important proposition." Xu Wenhua said.
The integration of the Yangtze River Delta has become a strategic layout for national development.
Xu Wenhua believes that through the overall consideration and integration of construction, as well as the realization of the "mutual supply of raw materials, resources **** enjoy, information sharing", the Yangtze River Delta region's chemical industry to join forces, will achieve "one plus one is greater than two" effect, is expected to The chemical industry in the Yangtze River Delta region will realize the effect of "one plus one is more than two", and is expected to create a leading international chemical industry cluster or even the world's first.
Scientific research generates champions
If we make an analogy, enterprises are like active cells, promoting the healthy development and rapid growth of the park.
The high acreage of the park is based on the high acreage of enterprises.
"We are the earliest batch of chemical enterprises entering the park, and now we are a national high-tech enterprise." (hereinafter referred to as Longxin Chemical) Executive Vice President and Senior Engineer Lin Yong introduced.
At present, Longxin Chemical has developed into a single champion enterprise in the domestic sub-sector, with an annual growth rate of about 20% or more, and the total mu tax has been in the top three in the chemical park.
All this comes from the development of scientific research.
Since 2000, they have been focusing on the R&D and manufacturing of solvent dyes, including engineering plastics series, polyester spinning series, and inkjet ink series dyes.
Now, Longxin Chemical has built a provincial R&D center, and has 7 authorized invention patents, and 3 national industry standards have been formulated by them.
Scientific and technological innovation is the perpetual motion of enterprise development.
In recent years, Ningbo Petrochemical Development Zone attaches great importance to enterprise research and innovation drive, the development of high-end new materials, environmental engineering, bio-engineering and other strategic emerging industries, and actively cultivate high-tech industry clusters, with 29 high-tech enterprises above the provincial level, forming dozens of leading enterprises in domestic industry segments.
As the only domestic enterprise to establish a complete downstream industry chain of carbon 5, Ningbo Golden Sea Chenguang Chemical Co.
Among them, the carbon five petroleum resin products have high brand awareness and customer recognition in the global market, and have entered the first tier in the world in terms of performance and quality stability, which is considered to be the best petroleum resin in mainland China.
Zhang Hongxiang, vice president of the company, said: "The rapid development of Jinhai Chenguang is due to its strong R&D strength. At present, we have more than 20 R&D personnel*** and 5 specialized research laboratories, which can maximize the use of carbon five resources."
In the park, there are numerous enterprises that have gained great benefits from scientific research.
Ningbo Juhua Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. specializes in perchloroethylene. Its production capacity and technology level are leading in the world, and its market share in the domestic market is more than 60%.
As a national high-tech enterprise, Juhua has a provincial high-tech enterprise R&D center for organochlorine compounds. Its self-developed "reactor for perchloroethylene production" has been awarded a national invention patent, and participated in the revision of national standards for perchloroethylene products.
Talent training is also emphasized.
It is understood that the petrochemical zone workstation is the only national postdoctoral workstation in Zhenhai District. As a regional workstation, long-term relying on the Chinese Academy of Sciences Ningbo Institute of Materials technology and talent advantages, give full play to the active role of the workstation in scientific research, the introduction of talent and cultivation, do a good job in the park talent team building and scientific and technological innovation work, for enterprises and talents to build a bridge between the integration of industry, academia and research. The station has recruited 4 post-doctoral fellows, and 3 of them have been discharged.
As one of the seven largest petrochemical industry bases in China, Ningbo has unique advantages in location, transportation, market and industry in petrochemical development.
It bears an important strategic mission in maintaining national industrial security and energy security, and is also shouldering a heavy responsibility for building a world-class chemical park.
High efficiency will be its unchanging calling card.
