China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (Sinopec) and Syntroleum recently opened a coal-to-liquids demonstration plant in Zhenhai, China. The 80 b/d facility utilises the Syntroleum-Sinopec Fischer-Tropsch technology for the conversion of coal, asphalt and petroleum coke into high value synthetic petrochemical feedstocks. Sinopec and Syntroleum entered into a technology transfer agreement in 2009. As part of the agreement, Sinopec relocated Syntroleum’s natural gas fed Catoosa demonstration facility to the Zhenhai refining and petrochemical complex in Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province in China for joint technology demonstration and development. Upon successful completion of the Zhenhai programme, Sinopec intends to build commercial scale coal and petroleum coke based Fischer-Tropsch facilities using the Syntroleum-Sinopec technology.
