Although He Tianhai did not make a clear statement, he explained the importance of scale from the perspective of pollution control. In his words, after scale, pollution will not be more, but may be less.

Coke must be used in steelmaking, and steel-coke integration is a trend. Tianjiang Iron and Steel Park must take coking projects. Coking projects must control pollution. To control pollution, you must increase investment in this regard. Relying on coking projects alone, the investment in environmental protection is too expensive, so... it is necessary to expand the scale of coal chemical industry and share the investment cost of environmental protection management!

Moreover, He Tianhai's words also revealed a very important news...

Mayor Yang Chenglin glanced at Bao Feiyang, then asked: "Director He, you just mentioned that Fang Xia New Materials has technical reserves in this area, which means they are planning to invest in the Iron and Steel Park?"

Yang Chenglin knew very well the relationship between Fang Xia Group and Bao Feiyang, but since it was proposed by He Tianhai and at the public meeting, Yang Chenglin did not break this relationship. However, if Fang Xia Group invested in the Iron and Steel Park, it was obvious that Bao Feiyang's relationship was at work. Fang Xia Group has become an international large company, but Yang Chenglin would not directly change the park's planning because of Fang Xia New Materials' investment. However, Fang Xia New Materials' actions can also show that Bao Feiyang's industrial planning ideas in this area are still very clear, and he also has advantages that other places cannot replicate.

Hearing Yang Chenglin's question, He Tianhai smiled and said, "Fang Xia New Materials does have such a plan. They cooperate with South African sasol Company to introduce sasol Company's complete set of coal chemical technology. sasol Company has the world's largest coal liquefaction factory and cash F-T synthesis technology. Its coal-based liquefaction factory has the ability to process more than 20 million tons of coal per year. Its products include gasoline, diesel, wax, gas, ammonia, ethylene, propylene, polymer,

More than 100 products such as alcohol and aldehyde have a total output of more than 3 million tons, of which oil accounts for about 60%, ensuring the supply of gasoline and diesel in South Africa. After decades of development, its liquefaction technology has become increasingly mature. Products extended from coal liquefaction technology have spread throughout the chemical industry. Its oil products not only include gasoline, diesel, kerosene lamp ordinary petroleum products, but also can extract high-quality petroleum products such as aviation fuel and lubricating oil on a large scale!”

He Tianhai is almost clearly advocating for Fang Xia New Materials. In fact, it was Bao Feiyang who took the lead. Fang Xia New Materials decided to cooperate with Tongqi University to build a new materials laboratory in the steel park. This laboratory involves the research and development of coal chemical synthetic materials and alloy new materials. This school-enterprise cooperation model generally involves universities obtaining research results, enterprises obtain economic benefits, and both parties take their needs. However, there are not many school-enterprise cooperation in this era. It is not easy for schools to obtain large investments from enterprises. With Fang Xia New Materials' strength and their technology in new materials, Tongqi University naturally cannot find it, and cherishes this opportunity very much. Although Tongqi University is across the country

It is also very famous, but in Pujiang City, where higher education is developed, it can only rank third, and the top effect of higher education is very large. The resources obtained by Tongqi University in the government cannot be compared with the top two. Therefore, Tongqi University attaches great importance to Fang Xia New Materials, which can make big money. Although He Tianhai is only the dean of the School of Urban Planning and Architecture, as the most famous and strongest dean of Tongqi University, he is also the vice president of Tongqi University, so he naturally has to consider the entire Tongqi University. What's more, at the president's office meeting, the president of Tongqi University repeatedly emphasized the need to do a good job in this project, which is also the reason why He Tianhai advocated Fang Xia New Materials.

Wang Shaowen, director of the Jingshan Chemical Zone Management Committee, couldn't help but say: "If Fang Xia New Materials wants to complete a complete set of coal chemicals, use coal to refine oil products, and produce ethylene, propylene and other products, our Jingshan Chemical Zone has more advantages!"

"I can explain the situation of Fang Xia's new materials..."

Bao Feiyang put down the pen in his hand and said, "I am quite familiar with the situation of Fangxia Group. Their products are mainly concentrated in ceramic materials, paper products and new materials. It can also be said that their core field is materials. This is a company that attaches great importance to technology. Among their annual profits, product sales profits only account for half, while patent authorization and technology authorization profits account for half, which shows their importance to technology!"

Bao Feiyang said: "The contact between the park and Fangxia new materials was originally derived from special steel. As we all know, although my country's steel production has jumped to the world's first for many years, most of our steel products are low-end goods, large road goods, many high-performance, high-value-added and high-tech steels cannot be manufactured in China. In terms of special steel, the same is true for special steel products. Special steel products also have unreasonable product structure, long-term products are oversupply, short-term products are scarce, and many special steels for special purposes cannot be produced..."

Bao Feiyang picked up the ballpoint pen in his hand and shook it: "All the leaders here, experts use pens. I usually use pens, but in daily life, more and more people use ballpoint pens, and fewer and fewer people use pens. But everyone may not know that it is such a small ballpoint pen. We have no way to completely manufacture it independently at present. This ballpoint pen looks very simple, right? We can make other parts, but we can't make the ballpoint pen refill balls. So what's the problem? That is, we can't make the special steel such as refill balls, and can only be imported!"

Bao Feiyang said: "There are many fields like this, such as in the field of automobile manufacturing, in addition to ordinary body panels, such as fuel injectors, nozzle needle valves, electronic nozzle armatures and armature shafts, piston rings, transmission components, inlet and exhaust valves, and soft magnetic stainless steel, all need to be imported at present."

"For example, most ultra-high strength steels need to be imported, and the low-temperature tough steels that need to be used on liquefied gas transport ships are not able to be produced in China. The ship plates for high-heat input welding are also to be developed. The corrosion-resistant steels that need to be used on oil tankers, and the high-strength and large-thickness steel plates commonly used on large container ships have also to be broken through their crack-resistance..."

Bao Feiyang said: "Fangxia Group has cooperated with Tangsheng Heavy Industry and Tucker Petroleum and other companies in marine special steel and drilling special steel. They have some investment and technical accumulation in the field of special steel. Therefore, the park hopes that Fangxia New Materials Company, a subsidiary of Fangxia Group, will invest in the park. This investment project has been basically finalized. Fangxia New Materials will invest 100 million US dollars in the park to establish Fangxia Special Steel to carry out special steel research and development and production in the park. In addition, Xinpu Steel also hopes to introduce the production technology of marine high-strength steel plates through Fangxia New Materials. The specific cooperation method is still under study."

"As for the coal chemical project, it was actually proposed by Fang Xia New Materials. Fang Xia New Materials previously mainly engaged in high-performance coatings, as well as some special paper and ceramic materials. However, after the reorganization of Fang Xia Group, Fang Xia Paper and Fang Xia Ceramics all went independently and became listed companies. Apart from the coatings, Fang Xia New Materials has not had much business in scale. They plan to enter the field of synthetic new materials!"

"Fangxia New Materials' main coatings were mainly produced in eastern Guangdong and northwest provinces. They cooperated with local coal chemical factories in the northwest. Therefore, they have accumulated some experience and technical reserves in coal chemical industry. Therefore, based on the situation of the park, they proposed the intention of coking with Xinpu Steel in coke production, especially pollution control, by-product recycling and development, as well as the intention of liquefaction and fractionation of coal and subsequent development. They are interested in hundreds of compounds and organic matters that may be involved in coal chemical industry, and each substance may produce a new material. For example, most of the raw materials of their main special coatings come from coal chemical industry, so their focus is actually fine chemical industry, not large synthetic chemical industry."

Bao Feiyang said: "The characteristic of fine chemicals is that their scale is generally not large, including the special coatings mainly engaged in Fangxia New Materials. In fact, the annual output and sales volume are not large. However, due to the high technical requirements, the profit level is still good! The reason why Fangxia New Materials invests in the steel park instead of going to the chemical industry is that what they want is not polyethylene or polypropylene. What they want is actually some other chemicals with not very large output. Of course, they may also use some ethylene and propylene, but for the time being, there is no plan to carry out large-scale synthetic chemicals!"

There was a period of time when the domestic production capacity was severely lacking. The ethylene project was only made by the whole country. However, after the breakthrough of related technologies, ethylene quickly became oversupply. Especially in recent years, the ethylene method has become popular. Although the current ethylene market is still OK, it will soon appear. The surplus of propylene is later, but it will also appear oversupply soon. Therefore, Fangxia Group has no plan to enter the ethylene and propylene market at all. Their goal is to have more back-end and high-end products.
