Green Hydrogen Project Tracking - Public Announcement of Candidate for Design Bid of Yunda's First-Phase Project for 180,000 mt of Green Methanol

On July 28, Windey Energy Technology Group Co., Ltd. announced the shortlisted candidates for the engineering design services of the first-phase project of the 180,000-mt biomass-based green methanol plant in Handan.

According to the announcement, the first-ranked shortlisted candidate is Sinopec Nanjing Engineering Co., Ltd., with a bid price of 18.68 million yuan;

the second-ranked candidate is Shanghai Electric Group Guokong Global Engineering Co., Ltd., with a bid price of 19.98 million yuan;

and the third-ranked candidate is CIMC Enric Engineering Technology Co., Ltd., with a bid price of 20.66 million yuan.

According to the tender notice, the construction site of the first-phase project of the 180,000-mt biomass-based green methanol plant in Handan is located in the Cixian Chemical Industry Park, Handan City, Hebei province. The project comprises two parts: chemical engineering and the power island. The chemical engineering part includes: storage and transportation of biomass raw materials (off-site processing of raw materials for gasification and briquetting), atmospheric pressure circulating fluidized bed pure oxygen gasification of biomass, purification units, methanol synthesis units, air separation units, as well as utility and auxiliary systems.

The power island part: The entire plant's electricity and driving steam are provided by two biomass direct-fired boilers and steam turbine generators (off-site bundled materials are transported to the plant). Part of the steam generated by the boilers is used for chemical engineering steam balance, while the remaining steam is used for power generation to meet the demand for electric drives. Meanwhile, the steam balance is provided by by-products from the chemical engineering area and steam extraction from the steam turbine. The main fuels for the power island boilers are biomass bulk materials and methanol synthesis gas purge gas.

The designed production capacity of refined methanol for this project is ≥11.25 mt/hour. The specifications of refined methanol exceed or are equivalent to the requirements of the International Methanol Producers and Consumers Association (IMPCA) standard and the requirements for premium products in the (GB 338-2011) "Methanol for Industrial Use" standard.

The scope of the tender: The first-phase project of the 180,000-mt biomass-based green methanol plant in Handan covers an area of approximately 322 mu. The project is expected to commence basic design in April 2025, start detailed design in September 2025, begin construction in November 2025, conduct intermediate handover in February 2027, and officially commence production in July 2027.

The bidder's work includes licensing all patents or proprietary process technologies, preparing process packages, conducting basic design and detailed design for the first-phase project of the 180,000-mt biomass-based green methanol plant in Handan, assisting the bid inviter in the procurement of equipment supplied by the bid inviter, and assisting the bid inviter in completing pre-evaluation and approval procedures for government approvals, including planning and construction permits.

The main production units of the project include atmospheric pressure circulating fluidized bed pure oxygen gasification units, purification units, methanol units, air separation units, as well as necessary auxiliary facilities such as the water purification plant, water supply and drainage, sewage treatment (including reclaimed water reuse and zero discharge), waste gas treatment, flares, power supply and distribution, telecommunications, power island units, instrumentation and control, and the plant's front-end area. The chemical section primarily includes the gasification unit, purification unit, methanol synthesis unit, air separation unit, as well as utility and auxiliary systems. The power island section mainly consists of the biomass direct combustion boiler unit, flue gas desulfurization and denitrification unit, steam turbine power generation unit, and auxiliary equipment.

The chemical section (including the plant front area) involves basic design, detailed design, and technical services for the units. The power island section includes basic design, detailed design, and technical services for the units. The final design documents for both sections shall be compiled independently into separate volumes.

Joint bids are not accepted for this tender.
