Circular Symbiosis for a Greener Future | Driving the Development of Green Methanol Through Technological Innovation and Supporting China’s Dual-Carbon Goals

Recently, China’s first commercial-scale bio-methanol project—the CIMC Green Energy 50,000 t/y Biomass Liquid Fuel Project—held its official commissioning ceremony. This milestone marks a strategic expansion of China’s clean energy pathway from hydrogen toward advanced liquid fuels. Against the backdrop of global efforts to achieve carbon neutrality, green methanol has emerged as a key clean-energy solution and an industry hotspot, with project deployment and investment accelerating worldwide.

As an integral partner within the project’s green supply chain, Jinhong Gas Co., Ltd. (“Jinhong Gas”) provides comprehensive industrial gas application solutions, meeting the project’s demand for green oxygen and green nitrogen. In addition, Jinhong Gas has co-invested in a green CO₂ recovery unit tailored to the project, significantly reducing carbon emissions and delivering critical support for the sustainable production of green methanol.

01. Reliable Supply Building a Solid Foundation for Green Production

The one-stop industrial gas solutions provided by Jinhong Gas fully meet the downstream production units’ demand for oxygen and nitrogen, while also enabling the recovery and utilization of by-product CO₂—one of the essential conditions for green methanol production and closed-loop application. Leveraging professional, stable, and reliable technologies as well as a robust management system, Jinhong Gas ensures the continuous and smooth operation of the entire production chain, laying a solid foundation for the large-scale production of green methanol.

02. Empowering Circularity: Carbon Recovery Technology Unlocks the “Green” Value

Notably, the CO₂ recovery unit developed and installed by Jinhong Gas delivers core value to the project’s green credentials. The system efficiently captures and purifies CO₂ generated during industrial processes, enabling the recovered CO₂ to be reused as a green industrial feedstock and upgraded for high-value applications, thereby enhancing resource circularity and reducing overall carbon emissions.

This process transforms greenhouse gases that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere into valuable feedstock for clean fuel production, realizing the circular utilization of carbon resources. It not only significantly reduces the project’s carbon footprint, but also vividly embodies the circular economy concept of “turning emissions into resources,” converting waste into value and aligning closely with the decarbonization and emission-reduction objectives of green methanol production.

03. Powering a Zero-Carbon Future Through Industrial Gases

The successful commissioning of the CIMC Enric Zhanjiang Project serves as a vivid example of China’s transition toward a greener, low-carbon energy structure. Jinhong Gas is honored to be part of this milestone, contributing through its industrial gas solutions and carbon circular technologies. This participation not only reflects recognition of the Company’s comprehensive capabilities and sense of responsibility, but also underscores our firm commitment to continuously advancing the green energy value chain and supporting China’s dual-carbon strategy.
