Beijing Chemical Research Institute YS-9010 Silver Catalyst Successfully Calibrated at Gulei Petrochemical
Recently, the YS-9010 silver catalyst, independently developed by the Beijing Chemical Research Institute, successfully completed its initial calibration at the Gulei Petrochemical Ethylene Oxide/Ethylene Glycol (EO/EG) facility. All operational indicators of the catalyst are comprehensively superior to the technical guarantee values, significantly reducing the energy consumption of the facility. The overall performance exceeds user expectations, marking a major breakthrough in the research and application of high-end domestic silver catalysts.
The Gulei EO/EG unit is the largest-scale application of the YS series silver catalyst, marking the first successful use of the YS-9010 silver catalyst in a high-load unit designed with a space-time yield of 200 kg EO/m³/h; this represents the 22nd successful application of this catalyst model.

To ensure the full performance of the catalyst, the Silver Catalyst Research Laboratory at the Yanshan Branch of the North China Institute of Chemical Technology formed a professional technical service team. They dedicated over 100 person-days to on-site technical support, providing "one-on-one" service throughout the entire process from catalyst production, loading, and activation to the startup of the equipment. Additionally, they established a 24-hour remote technical response mechanism, providing a solid guarantee for the stable operation of the equipment. This further validated the North China Institute's full-chain support capability from research and development to application.
This achievement further consolidates the YS series silver catalysts in South China EO./The technological leadership of the EG market has further enhanced the industry influence of domestically produced silver catalysts.Beihua InstituteContinuously promote technological innovation in silver-catalyzed ethylene epoxidation catalysts to support EO with superior localized solutions./High-quality development of the EG industry.
