en.Wedoany.com Reported - China Zhongke Hefei Coal Gasification Technology Co., Ltd. (Zhonghe Gasification) recently officially signed the energy support project for the Winning Consortium alumina plant in Guinea. The project is located in the Konkouré River Bonded Industrial Park, Boké Province, Guinea, and serves as a core supporting facility for a 2.4 million tons per year alumina production line. Zhonghe Gasification will construct four sets of 60,000 Nm³/h circulating fluidized bed clean gas systems for it. The produced gas will be directly supplied to the alumina calcination kilns as a continuous and stable heat source.
The CGAS coal gasification technology exported this time already boasts a track record of over 70 operational units in China. This technology features hot-start capability within 30 minutes, does not produce tar or phenolic wastewater, and has strong adaptability to various coal types. In the 3×60,000 Nm³/h units operating at Xinjiang Yihua, zero discharge of wastewater and tar has been achieved. Recognized for its high environmental standards, this technology has been successively included in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's catalog of energy-saving and carbon-reduction technologies and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment's "Zero-Waste City" technology list.
As a country with significant global bauxite reserves, Guinea is currently accelerating its transformation from raw ore export to alumina deep processing. This signing marks the official overseas deployment of China's mature coal gasification technology, providing high-stability, low-emission energy security for the West African region, which has a relatively weak industrial base. The achievement of this milestone signifies the project's transition from the technical solution confirmation phase to the equipment manufacturing and overseas delivery phase.
In the future, Zhonghe Gasification plans to promote this clean gas technology to more industrial scenarios such as cement, glass, and synthetic ammonia production. By efficiently converting low-quality coal into clean gas, this technology not only solves the industry-wide challenge of tar and wastewater generation in traditional coal gasification but also allows the resulting residue to be used as a raw material for building materials. With the successive commissioning of alumina plants in Guinea, this energy project will become a key infrastructure supporting the local industrial green transformation.
