In recent years, China's air separation industry continues to grow and develop, the number of air-conditioning equipment manufacturing capacity and total oxygen capacity has become the world's first; domestic air separation equipment to achieve large-scale, large-scale, air separation equipment Capacity to 10 million, 120,000 level; independent research and development capabilities have been greatly improved, domestic large, large air separation plant technology has reached the level of similar international products and exported to Europe and the United States and other developed countries; Class gas separation equipment, liquefaction equipment has also been greatly developed in the industry enterprises in the proportion of products continue to improve, in the October 28 2013 China (International) gas separation equipment technology development forum on Hangzhou Oxygen Group Co., Ltd. Chairman Jiang Ming said.

This forum focuses on the development of China's gas separation equipment industry in recent ten years, showing the exchange of gas separation equipment industry, new technologies and new products, exchange of air separation equipment operation experience and technology. "Technological innovation is an inexhaustible motive force, the core technology is really strong and reliable signs." Participants, Wuhan Iron and Steel Group Co., Ltd. Professor Ma Dafang said. In the industrial transformation and upgrading of the extraordinary period, in the face of the reality of excess capacity pressure, air separation industry continues to face new areas, the development of high-end technology and equipment. "Gas separation equipment industry will face many domestic industries, especially in the steel industry, the phenomenon of overcapacity, which the overall demand for air separation equipment market weakened at the same time, China's modern coal chemical industry and the rapid development of large-scale , Large air separation equipment and other gas separation equipment to provide a new huge market. "Jiang said.

China's energy consumption to coal-based, in order to fully and efficiently, comprehensive utilization of coal resources, change the past, coal, "a burning," the extensive use of ways to vigorously develop coal oil, coal natural gas, coal olefins, coal Methanol, coal dimethyl ether, coal new energy, IGCC as the representative of the new coal chemical industry, will greatly improve energy efficiency and economic efficiency. In particular, since March this year, there are 10 new coal chemical projects by the National Development and Reform Commission "road", the core of these projects is coal gasification, coal gasification requires a lot of oxygen as raw material gas, nitrogen and air for the gas, air separation equipment Demand is great. Ma Dafang that the air separation industry to seize the new coal chemical industry development opportunities, take advantage of strong, focus on the development of large, large air separation.

In order to cope with the global energy crisis, China has established a large number of LNG receiving stations in the coastal area, which brings a huge cold source to the air separation industry. LNG can be used for cooling air separation equipment, especially for liquid air separation, producing the same amount of cryogenic liquid ratio Conventional air separation power saving 50% to 60%, saving more than 90%; and LNG need to vaporize to use, but the cold energy from the use of air separation equipment, eliminating the vaporization process, reducing a lot of water and cooler consumption. Ma Dafang at the meeting called on China's air separation industry should vigorously develop the use of LNG cold energy air separation equipment to meet the natural gas liquefaction industry in China's booming demand.

In the use of LNG cold energy air separation equipment development, Hangzhou oxygen achieved certain results, independent research and development of LNG cold energy liquid separation equipment; to cooperate with China Resources shares in Jiangsu Rudong LNG receiving station next to the establishment of gas companies, the use of LNG cold energy Production of industrial gases, for the local retail market, can reduce the cost of 30% to 40%, thereby greatly enhance the price advantage of gas products.
