Chongqing Tianyuan Chemical Industry Plant
(Xinhua)
Updated: 2004-04-17 15:31 Located at the riverside of
the Jialing River, Jiangbei district of southwestern Chongqing Municipality,
Chongqing Tianyuan Chemical Industry Plant mainly produces basic chemicals, with
an annual producing capability of caustic soda of about 60,000 tons.
Besides caustic soda, products of Tianyuan includes chemicals such as
hydrochloric acid, liquid chlorine, carbon tetrachloride, ferric chloride,
silicon tetrachloride and hypochlorite, and seasonings such as gourmet powder,
sauce and chicken gourmet powder.
As one of the largest chemical plant producing caustic soda in southwestern
China, Tianyuan Chemical Industry Plant was first founded in Shanghai and moved
to Chongqing during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression
(1937-1945). Before the chlorine leaking accident, the plant had planed to move
to the industrial park in Wanzhou District by the end of 2006. With an
investment of one billion yuan (120.5 million US dollars), the caustic soda
production capacity of the new plant will reach 100,000 tons. And after 2010,
the production scale of caustic soda will reach over 200,000 tons.
Another chlorine leaking accident occurred on Feb. 14 this year in the
plant.
