Dow Inc. has announced a significant delay to its highly anticipated Path2Zero project in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, while also expanding its review of European assets in response to ongoing market challenges. The Path2Zero initiative, originally slated for phased startup in 2027 and 2029, represents an $8.9 billion investment to build the world’s first net-zero emissions steamcracker (ethylene plant) and polyethylene production facility. This project was designed to decarbonize 20% of Dow’s global ethylene capacity and boost its polyethylene output by about 15%, supplying roughly 3.2 million metric tonnes of low- or zero-carbon plastics annually.

The decision to delay construction comes as Dow faces persistent global economic uncertainty, including unpredictable U.S. trade policies and tariffs that have dampened demand and increased market volatility. According to Dow CEO Jim Fitterling, the pause is intended to preserve cash flow and avoid escalating costs before major construction begins. By delaying the project, Dow expects to save $600 million in 2025, contributing to a $1 billion reduction in capital expenditures for the year. Despite the setback, the company remains committed to the long-term vision of the Path2Zero project, which is seen as crucial for future growth in sectors such as pressure pipes, wiring, cables, and food packaging.

In addition to the Path2Zero delay, Dow is broadening its review of European assets, particularly in light of high feedstock and energy costs, weak demand, and increasingly complex regulatory conditions in the region. This expanded review now includes all value-creating options for its polyurethanes business, as well as three high-cost, energy-intensive upstream assets: the steam cracker in Böhlen, Germany; chlor-alkali and vinyl assets in Schkopau, Germany; and the basics siloxanes plant in Barry, U.K. The company aims to complete this review by mid-2025, with possible outcomes ranging from idling to shutting down these facilities.

Financially, Dow reported a net loss of $290 million in the first quarter of 2025, reversing a profit from the previous year, largely due to lower prices and higher costs. The company has also implemented a global workforce reduction of 1,500 jobs and is targeting approximately $6 billion in near-term cash support through asset sales and legal settlements. Despite these challenges, the Alberta government and other project stakeholders continue to support the Path2Zero initiative, emphasizing its long-term importance for the region’s economy and the global shift toward low-emissions energy.

Jianghan Salt Chemical Fine Chemical and Supporting Engineering Project Started to Promote the Development of Hubei Salt Chemical Industry Cluster

Hubei Daily 2024-09-20 18:31:05

Hubei Daily News (Reporter Huang Lu, Correspondents Sun Yilin and Feng Jun) On September 20, Qianjiang held a concentrated start-up event for major projects in the third quarter of 2024, among which the Jianghan Salt Chemical Fine Chemicals and Supporting Engineering Project with a total investment of 10.8 billion yuan was announced to start construction.

The Jianghan Salt Chemical Fine Chemical and Supporting Engineering Project is located in Wangchang Park, Qianjiang High-tech Zone, and is invested and constructed by Jianghan Salt Chemical, the world's largest chlorine-containing disinfectant manufacturer. The project will further expand the basic scale of Jianghan Salt Chemical, and the park's steam, liquid alkali, chlorine and hydrogen supply capacity will be more sufficient; the newly built 30,000 tons/year bleaching powder concentrate unit will refine the characteristic business of Jianghan Salt Chemical, increase the international market supply of bleaching powder concentrate, and effectively increase the market share; the newly built 50,000 tons/year chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) unit will extend the Jianghan Salt Chemical industry chain, enrich the product variety, and initially show diversified development. After the project is completed and put into production, it is expected to have an average annual operating income of about 7.7 billion yuan, directly creating more than 1,200 jobs.

"Jianghan Salt Chemical Industry utilizes abundant brine resources to build fine chemicals and supporting projects, which will help the development of Hubei's salt chemical industry cluster." A relevant person in charge of Qianjiang Municipal Development and Reform Commission introduced that Hubei Province has formed a strategy of relying on Jianghan Salt Chemical Industry, making full use of its basic chemical raw materials such as chlorine, hydrogen, caustic soda, attracting domestic leading companies in the same industry with high industrial correlation to enter the park, extending the salt chemical industry chain, and developing a circular economy.

Jianghan Salt Chemical Industry leverages its own brine resource advantages to extend the salt chemical industry chain and provide high-quality raw materials for park enterprises.

Sinopec Jianghan Salt Chemical Hubei Co., Ltd. (Jianghan Salt Chemical for short) combines its own advantages in resources, technology and products with the local government's preferential policies for attracting investment, attracting leading enterprises in the industry to set up factories nearby, forming the Jianghan Salt Chemical Industrial Park with upstream and downstream integration. So far, three major industrial areas have been built in the Jianghan Salt Chemical Industrial Park, namely the New Chemical Industrial Park, Changfei Qianjiang Science and Technology Park and Qianjiang Microelectronics Industrial Park, with a total of 26 companies settled in. In 2022, the total sales of Jianghan Salt Chemical's products in the Jianghan Salt Chemical Industrial Park will exceed 200 million yuan, setting a historical record.

Expanding sales channels for salt chemical by-products

"Qianjiang City vigorously promotes the construction of Jianghan Salt Chemical Industrial Park. It is urgently needed for the salt chemical industry to further improve resource-based products and services such as chlorine, hydrogen, and steam to drive and promote regional economic development. At present, the 'implementation of salt chemical fine chemicals and supporting projects' has been written into the 2023 government work report. The Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have also provided us with a good development environment for strengthening, optimizing and expanding the salt chemical industry." At the beginning of the year, Jianghan Salt Chemical Industry held a staff representative meeting to conduct a serious analysis of the development environment.

Brine resources are unique to Jianghan Oilfield and stand out in the Sinopec system. Sinopec Jianghan Oilfield salt rock resources are buried 1,000 to 3,000 meters underground, with a thickness of more than 2,000 meters. Jianghan Salt Chemical is a comprehensive chemical enterprise built by Jianghan Oilfield using underground brine resources. Brine is extracted from underground and transported to Jianghan Salt Chemical through pipelines. While producing refined salt and edible salt, it electrolyzes brine to produce chlorine, caustic soda, hydrogen and other salt chemical by-products, which are sold as chemical raw materials and fuels.

The sales of these salt chemical byproducts once troubled them. Take hydrogen as an example. When the plant was built, the annual output was only a few hundred tons. Due to the limitations of transportation volume and radius, and insufficient market development, most of the hydrogen was directly discharged, except for a small part of it compressed into steel cylinders for export. With the development of salt chemical industry over the years, the scale of production equipment has been continuously expanded. The annual output of chlor-alkali equipment has reached 200,000 tons, and the annual output of hydrogen has reached 5,000 tons.

Integrated industrial chain attracts enterprises to settle in

Over the past decade, with the implementation of the country's "Broadband China" strategy, the demand for optical fiber preforms has continued to grow, the demand for hydrogen needed to make optical fiber has increased sharply, and related industries have developed rapidly.

Changfei Optical Fiber Company is the world's leading supplier of optical fiber preforms, optical fibers and optical cables. Optical fiber manufacturing consumes a large amount of hydrogen, caustic soda and chlorine. In 2015, Jianghan Salt Chemical Industry took the initiative to connect with the company. After the company settled in, optical fiber giants such as Japan's Shin-Etsu and France's Air Liquide settled here. Around these optical fiber companies, the first industrial area in Jianghan Salt Chemical Industrial Park, Changfei Qianjiang Science and Technology Park, was born.

"What attracted us is the complete integrated industrial chain here," said Song Xianjun, director of the management committee of the Changfei Qianjiang Science and Technology Park. Hydrogen is a flammable and explosive gas that is inconvenient to transport over long distances. Jianghan Salt Chemical Industry has greatly reduced transportation risks through pipeline transportation and effectively reduced the production costs of enterprises, thus attracting many high-tech enterprises to settle here.

In addition to hydrogen, other salt chemical byproducts such as caustic soda and steam have also found stable sales channels in the park. Pipelines like silver dragons fly in the air, winding from Jianghan Salt Chemical to the Jianghan Salt Chemical Industrial Park across the river, connecting with many world-renowned optical fiber manufacturers.

In addition to the advantages of the industrial chain, the park's powerful resource recycling system also attracts enterprises. How to deal with the large amount of high-salt wastewater in production is a major problem faced by enterprises. "The extraction of brine from underground requires a large amount of fresh water. We repeatedly treat the wastewater to meet the use standards and then use it for brine extraction. This not only solves the wastewater treatment problem of enterprises in the industrial park, but also reduces the use of fresh water." said Chen Xufeng, deputy director of the Safety and Environmental Protection Department of Jianghan Salt Chemical Industry.

In addition, the waste liquid dilute hydrochloric acid produced in the production of YOFC is recycled by Jianghan Salt Chemical through pipelines, reacting with the by-product liquid produced by the bleaching powder concentrate device to release chlorine, which is then dehydrated and pressurized to become commercial chlorine. Through this process, the company can produce 22 tons of chlorine per day, thus realizing the reuse of by-products.

Provide high-quality raw materials for enterprises in the park

Today, several by-products of Jianghan Salt Chemical Industry have gone from being "useless" to "hot", with sales exceeding 50 million yuan in 2022. Among them, chlorine is mainly supplied to enterprises in the park to produce silicon tetrachloride; hydrogen, after purification, is used as raw materials together with caustic soda, steam, silicon tetrachloride, etc. to manufacture optical fiber preforms; sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, etc. are used as raw materials to manufacture photoresist cleaning fluid.

In order to provide high-quality raw materials to enterprises in the park, Jianghan Salt Chemical Company maintains close communication with important customers, downstream enterprises in the park, and various operation departments, rationally allocates resources, and ensures the balance of large systems, with a focus on the balance of the chlor-alkali hydrogen system, the balance of the water system, and the balance of the steam system, in order to ensure the balance of the park and high-load operation of production equipment.

"The production of chip-grade high-purity hydrogen peroxide requires steam to maintain a constant temperature and humidity in the production plant, and it participates in heat exchange, heating or product drying in the process," said a relevant person in charge of a microelectronics materials company.

For many years, chip-grade high-purity hydrogen peroxide has been a "bottleneck" process material for the semiconductor industry. With the first phase of Jingrui (Hubei) Microelectronics Materials Co., Ltd. put into production in Jianghan Salt Chemical Industrial Park, the stable and high-quality steam supply in the park has effectively guaranteed the smooth operation of the high-purity hydrogen peroxide production equipment, breaking the foreign monopoly of chip-grade high-purity hydrogen peroxide production technology and realizing the localization of chip-grade high-purity hydrogen peroxide.

At present, the products of upstream and downstream enterprises in the park complement each other, forming a mutually beneficial and win-win development model with Jianghan Salt Chemical as the leader, close connection between the beginning and the end, sharing of corporate resources, and recycling of materials, with a complete industrial chain and high economic efficiency.

After years of development, the park has shown a good trend of concentrated development and has achieved four world firsts, namely, the world's largest optical fiber preform production base, the optical fiber industry cluster with the most complete global industrial chain, the world's largest gas-melting quartz material production base, and the world's largest optical fiber supporting quartz material production base. It has formed the world's most complete rod fiber industry chain in Qianjiang City, changing the development pattern of Qianjiang City's single industrial structure and heavy type. Because there are many world-renowned optical fiber production companies in Jianghan Salt Chemical Industrial Park, Wangchang Town where the industrial park is located has also gained the reputation of "Optical Fiber Town".

In 2022, as more companies settled in the park, Jianghan Salt Chemical accelerated the renewal and upgrading of its equipment. On November 18, 2022, the 100,000 tons/year electrolysis equipment renewal and technical transformation project (50,000 tons of electrolytic cells in advance) was successfully put into operation. After the project is fully put into use, it can increase hydrogen production by 2,500 tons per year, further meet the production needs of downstream companies, and empower the development of the park.

Sun Tingwen and Li Jinghai, December 2, 2016 19:18 Source: China News Network

On Dec 2^nd, the second phase of the chlor-alkali project with an annual output of 250,000 tons of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and 220,000 tons of caustic soda of Xinjiang Zhongtai Group Shengxiong Energy Company (referred to as "Zhongtai Shengxiong Energy") was completed and put into production, and the launching ceremony of the Toksun Energy Chemical Company's high-performance resin industrial park project was held in Toksun County, Turpan City.

It is reported that the total investment of the Zhongtai Mahatma Energy PVC Phase II project is about 2.7 billion yuan. Construction started in October 2012. After Zhongthai Chemical reorganized Mahatma Energy in September 2015, Zhongtai Chemical transferred in the management team to optimize the design and speed up the project construction. The project was put into trial operation on October 30, 2016. The project adopts modular design, with compact equipment layout, clear functional division and centralized control. In addition to advanced equipment, the newly developed double-effect evaporation process technology has been added to realize the recycling of wastewater, and the wastewater treatment has achieved recycling and zero emission.

　　After the project is put into production, it will form a production capacity of 500,000 tons of PVC and 400,000 tons of caustic soda projects, drive the production of calcium carbide and power generation, and the mining of coal, salt, and lime, realize "industrial integration, investment concentration, resource intensiveness, and benefit concentration", and form a coal-electricity-salt circular economy industrial chain. It can add an annual sales revenue of 1.83 billion yuan and an annual profit and tax of 368 million yuan, solve the employment of more than 700 local people, transform Turpan's advantageous resources into economic advantages, drive the employment of local employees of all ethnic groups and the development of the tertiary industry, and promote economic and social development and social stability.

　　On the same day, the high-performance resin industrial park of Toksun Energy Chemical Company, which was also started, was a special new material project determined by Zhongtai Chemical to be built in the southern area of ​​Toksun Industrial Park in order to change the current situation of single calcium carbide PVC product structure, only general varieties, and lack of special and special functional resins, and to achieve structural and transformation and upgrading. The terminal market products of the project are: special material resin for bulk method refers to special material resin for high-transmittance film bag, chlorinated polyvinyl chloride resin, 100,000 special paste resin, 50,000 tons/year CPE (or 30,000 tons/year CPVC), composite functional resin, solid sodium hydroxide, liquid chlorine, sodium hypochlorite, hydrochloric acid, etc. The project investment is about 2.7 billion yuan, and the annual sales after production is expected to be 2.9 billion yuan, which can provide employment for 1,300 people.

　　Zhang Wenquan, secretary of the Turpan Municipal Party Committee, said that the completion of the second phase of PVC and caustic soda projects and the launch of the high-performance resin industrial park construction project marked a new level in the economic development of Toksun County. It also marked that Turpan City has taken another solid step in the journey of economic transformation and upgrading. It is also a concrete manifestation of leading the new normal of the economy and releasing new economic momentum.

　　Zhongtai Shengxiong Energy, formerly Xinjiang Shengxiong Energy Co., Ltd., was established in 2006. It mainly engages in mineral resource development, calcium carbide, PVC, caustic soda, building materials, etc. It completed an investment of more than 10 billion yuan in 2014. With the rapid expansion of the company's investment scale, the debt ratio continued to rise. In addition, after the project was put into production, the market price of the terminal product PVC continued to be sluggish, and financial institutions tightened their credit. The company faced serious difficulties in subsequent development funds.

　　In 2014, under the coordination and promotion of government departments at all levels in Xinjiang Autonomous Region and the CPC Turpan Municipal Committee and Government, and the CPC Toksun County Committee and Government, Zhongtai Group began to discuss restructuring matters with Mahatma Energy. Finally, in September 2015, Zhongtai Group formally completed the strategic restructuring of Mahatma Energy. In the more than one year since the restructuring, the company has paid off a total of about 1.086 billion yuan in debts. In October 2016, the company began to make a small profit, turning losses into profits since the restructuring.

This honor is not only a recognition of Mahatma Energy’s achievements in energy efficiency management, but also reflects that Zhongtai Group has taken solid steps on the road to sustainable development.

"At present, Mahatma Energy Chlor-Alkali Plant has adopted advanced energy-saving technologies, continuously optimized production processes, and continuously improved resource utilization efficiency and reduced energy consumption and carbon emissions through projects such as cascade utilization of wastewater and recovery of waste heat from boiler flue gas." said Liu Kai, director of the Technical Department of Mahatma Energy Chlor-Alkali Plant.

In recent years, Mahatma Energy Chlor-Alkali Plant has always adhered to the core concept of green manufacturing, energy conservation and carbon reduction, and has implemented it throughout all aspects of the company's production and operation. By widely carrying out mass quality management, "Five Smalls" mass innovation, and all-staff "Golden Ideas" and other activities, it has stimulated employees' vitality to actively participate in innovation, encouraged employees to give full play to their creativity, and brought technological innovation and production improvements to the company.

In 2024 , Shengxiong Energy Chlor-Alkali Plant will continue to increase investment in energy-saving and emission-reduction innovation projects in the transformation of high-current-density bipolar zero-gap natural circulation electrolyzers and comprehensive utilization of waste heat, further promote technological innovation and industrial upgrading, and effectively improve the company's energy efficiency management level. At the same time, it will actively cooperate and communicate with advanced companies in the industry, learn from advanced experience and technology, and make greater contributions to achieving the company's sustainable development goals.
