This project relies on Xiangyang's reserves of over 2 billion tons of phosphate ore and superior transportation location, and lays out a cluster of wet process phosphoric acid and purification, synthetic ammonia and other large facilities, constructing a phosphorus coal fluorine multi-element coupled cycle industrial form, helping Xiangyang build a modern chemical industry cluster with investment and output value of "double hundred billion", and promoting the chemical industry in the central region to move towards high-end, green and intensive development.

The first integrated phosphorus coal fluorine base in China

The project focuses on the layout of large-scale equipment clusters such as wet process phosphoric acid, purification, and synthetic ammonia, which are domestically leading and internationally first-class. It aims to build a fully resource, multi-element coupled circular industrial form dominated by phosphorus, coal, and fluorine. The project adopts green production technology, significantly improving resource recovery rate, reducing energy consumption and pollutant emissions, and driving industrial technological upgrading.

Hubei Liantou Group Co., Ltd. is a large state-owned holding enterprise under the jurisdiction of Hubei Province. It is vigorously implementing the strategy of "gathering minerals to promote production and integrating mineralization", and building a billion dollar "mineral resource development and utilization" business sector. The Xiangyang Phosphorus Coal Fluorine Industry Base project will inject strong momentum into Hubei United Investment Group's expansion of industrial territory, Xiangyang's construction of a modern industrial system, and the province's creation of a trillion level modern chemical and energy industry.

Reverse schedule and fully promote project construction

At present, the project has entered the substantive construction stage. On January 3rd, the temperature at the project site dropped to freezing point, and the construction team is stepping up the preliminary preparation work such as building construction fences. With the enthusiasm of "not stopping work and not relaxing efforts", they are laying a solid foundation for the main project. In the open construction site, excavators wave their long arms to dig and lay the foundation, and the sound of mechanical roar echoes one after another; The welder bent down to work, and sparks bloomed like stars in the wind and snow.

The first phase of the project is planned to be completed and put into operation in June 2027, with an annual revenue of 10.8 billion yuan, providing 1600 direct employment positions and 5000 indirect employment positions. The second phase will adopt a whole chain thinking layout, extending towards high-end, refined, and green development based on the first phase project, introducing advanced technology and digital control systems, building smart factories and green parks, constructing a full industry chain ecology from resources to materials, from basic to high-end, and creating a billion dollar industrial cluster.

Collaboration between government and enterprises to create a new highland of modern chemical industry

Liu Jungang, Chairman of Hubei United Investment Group, said that since the project planning was launched, he deeply felt the warmth and strength of Xiangyang's first-class business environment. The company will strictly control the quality of projects and enhance the "new content" of investment; Strictly control project efficiency and enhance the "gold content" of investment; Strictly control the project ecology, enhance the "green content" of investment, accelerate the transformation of construction drawings into physical quantities and production lines into productivity, and strive to become the best urban partner, industrial partner, and pivot construction partner in Xiangyang.

Mayor Du Haiyang of Xiangyang City stated that this project is a key project that marks the end of Xiangyang's 14th Five Year Plan and the beginning of its 15th Five Year Plan. It is also another landmark achievement of the "Two Capital and Three Energy" project. Xiangyang City will adhere to the concept of "two-way cooperation between cities and enterprises", closely link the city and county levels, actively lead service teams, and provide comprehensive service guarantees in accordance with the requirements of "five modernizations" management, promoting the early completion and operation of projects and achieving efficiency and benefits.Editor/Yang Meiling
