After two years of collaborative research with East Yangzi Petrochemical and Zhejiang University, the School of Information Science and Engineering of East China University of Science and Technology successfully applied paraxylene oxidation reaction modeling technology with independent intellectual property rights to the production of p-xylene oxidation reaction in Yangzi Petrochemical Company. Net profit of 16.24 million yuan per year. This new technology has recently passed the expert appraisal hosted by the Sinopec Group.
An appraisal committee composed of renowned experts such as Academician Jiang Shicheng believes that this achievement has filled the domestic gap and reached the international advanced level. The modelling technology and software should be further commercialized and promoted in other domestic paraxylene facilities.
