Jintai Chlor Alkali¡¯s Renewal Project of Saltwater Iodine Removal Unit Started
2024-8-15
Recently, Jintai Chlor Alkali Chemical officially started the renewal project of a saltwater iodine removal unit.
When the iodine ion content in the saltwater exceeds 400ppb, the ion membrane current efficiency of the electrolytic cell drops and the cell voltage rises, greatly shortening the service life of the ion membrane. In order to reduce the iodine ion content in salt water, the company built a new technical renovation project-Salt Water Iodine Removal unit in 2019. As the newly built saltwater iodine removal unit has a designed processing capacity of 144m3/h, it can only meet the needs of one production line. In 2024, the company approved the implementation of a research project to continue the construction of a saltwater iodine removal device, which will ensure the safe, stable, and efficient operation of the ion membrane electrolysis cells on the company¡äs two production lines.
The project of continuing to build a salt water iodine removal unit is a technology research and development project approved by the company this year, with a total investment of 10 million yuan. It was officially approved in March and outsourced in April. The environmental impact assessment report of the project was approved in May, the project geological survey and engineering design were completed in June and the civil construction was outsourced in July. At the same time, the procurement plan for project processes, equipment, instruments, electrical and other materials has been submitted, with the project expected to be completed and put into operation in November.
Then, the Research and Development Center and the Caustic Soda Subplant will anchor targets and reverse schedule, strengthening detail control, and strictly controlling project construction safety and quality. Besides, the company will closely monitor important milestones and goals of the project by continuously improving various planning schemes, organizing construction companies to hold regular work meetings, and advancing project construction in all efforts as it strives to ensure the smooth completion and operation of the continued construction of a saltwater iodine removal unit.
