The "Industrialization Demonstration Project" Can Bring A New Revolution To The Textile Industry.

Soft touch, easy to wash, quick drying, no iron, made of new polyester fiber PTT.

Dress is more comfortable.

However, its synthetic material 1,3- propanediol has low output and high price, making PTT mostly used for making top grade garments.

Reporters recently learned from the Heilongjiang entry exit inspection and Quarantine Bureau.

The first domestic (set) fermentation process of 1,3- propylene glycol unit developed by Chen energy Bioengineering Co., Ltd. has filled the gap in China and achieved the first export of 1,3- propylene glycol at the end of last year.

It is reported that 1,3- propylene glycol is an important chemical raw material, which can be used as an organic solvent in printing ink, printing and dyeing, coating, lubricants, antifreeze and other industries, and can also be used as pharmaceutical synthesis intermediates.

Its most important use is to synthesize PTT fibers as raw materials, which can replace nylon and spandex for textile and other industries.

At present, the world's production of biotech 1 and 3- propylene glycol is mainly controlled by the US DuPont Co, with an annual output of about 50 thousand tons.

Previously, Shell, which produced 1, 3- propylene glycol by chemical method, withdrew from the market, making the product always in short supply, and the global gap was million tons.

Heilongjiang Chen can Bioengineering Co., Ltd., in cooperation with Tsinghua University, has completed the key task of the national "fifteen" plan: 1,3- propylene glycol Technology (pilot) and industrial test.

In 2009, we invested 67 million 420 thousand yuan to complete the construction of the first set of national high technology industrialization demonstration plant of 1,3- propylene glycol in China. Among them, 100 tons of monomer fermentation tank is the largest scale of the monomer unit in the 1,3- propylene glycol industry, which fills the gap of domestic technology in this field.

According to the person in charge of the company, the equipment has passed the acceptance of production capacity.

In the first two years, the price of glycerol has been innovating repeatedly. The company used glycerol as raw material to produce 1,3- propylene glycol by fermentation, and exported at the end of last year, with a value of US $more than 50 thousand.

In order to make better use of our province's resource advantages, the company once again joined hands with the Shanghai branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to develop genetically modified technology based on starch.

It is reported that the project has been listed as the "industrialization demonstration project" by the national development and Reform Commission.

At present, more than 80% of the world's textile products are produced in China. Once the scale of production is achieved, the situation of the high price of 1,3- propylene glycol monomer will be changed.

Bring about a new round of change.
