Trends
Dushanzi Petrochemical is continuously evolving toward high-end, green, and intelligent operations. It is advancing the industrial structural shift of "reducing fuel output while increasing chemical production" and leveraging the implementation of the Tarim Ethylene Green Demonstration Project and the photovoltaic molten-salt energy storage project to expand production capacity for new materials such as metallocene polyolefins, POE, and high-performance rubber. Concurrently, the company is deploying low-carbon technologies—including carbon capture and the substitution of fossil-fuel power with green electricity—to steadily reduce carbon emissions across the entire production lifecycle. By utilizing large-scale refining and chemical models to optimize unit operations and intensifying R&D into materials for new energy applications, the enterprise balances domestic supply security with expansion into Central Asian and overseas markets, consistently building a domestic production base for high-end petrochemical materials.
