Seize the Opportunity and Realize the Innovation and Reengineering of Enterprises
June 5th this year marks the 50th anniversary of the Anhui Chlor-Alkali Chemical Group, a milestone that highlights its long-standing contributions to China's chemical industry. Gu Xiulian, vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, personally inscribed the message: “Establishing a Scientific Outlook on Development and Building a Green Chemical Enterprise,†which has since become a guiding principle for the company’s sustainable growth.
The group traces its roots back to the Hefei Chemical Plant, founded in 1957 as part of the country’s second Five-Year Plan. Over five decades, the enterprise has grown significantly, achieving a total industrial output value of 7.44 billion yuan, sales revenue of 7.07 billion yuan, and contributing over 430 million yuan in national profits and taxes. Between 1987 and 1993, the company also absorbed more than 30,000 employees and their families from other local factories, playing a vital role in social stability and economic development.
In recent years, the company has focused on strategic development, leveraging business scope, resource allocation, and competitive advantages to drive rapid growth. It has successfully obtained certifications such as ISO9001, ISO14001, and OHSAS18000, while promoting brand recognition. Products like Huangshan caustic soda have earned the “China Exempt Product†title, and several others have been recognized as “Anhui Famous Brands.†The company is now reaping growing economic, social, and environmental benefits.
Environmental protection has always been a top priority. Chairman Fang Ligui emphasized that although initial investments in clean production and energy efficiency are high, the long-term benefits are substantial. In 1995, the plant discharged 48,000 tons of wastewater daily, but after upgrading its treatment facilities in 1999, this dropped to 24,000 tons. Through large-scale clean production audits and technological upgrades, the company has further reduced its daily discharge to between 1.2 and 15,000 tons, with COD emissions decreasing from 1,065 tons in 2004 to 533 tons annually. The company is now working toward zero wastewater discharge.
In addition, the shift from heavy oil to hydrogen combustion in alkali production has eliminated carbon dioxide emissions, improving air quality and earning a special environmental fund of 600,000 yuan from Anhui Province. Over the past three years, the company has implemented seven key projects to ensure stable wastewater discharge, including advanced wastewater monitoring systems, steam condensate recycling, and slurry filtration improvements. Last year alone, it invested over 13 million yuan in environmental protection, with plans to invest more than 70 million yuan this year. These efforts have not only improved sewage treatment standards but also generated about 800 million yuan in annual economic benefits.
Safety and environmental protection go hand in hand. Chairman Fang Ligui insists that safety is a core value, emphasizing that it brings tangible benefits. The company strictly adheres to the “safety first, environment-based†principle, implementing detailed safety plans and strengthening the safety committee. In 2006, there were no major accidents, and product output and quality saw significant improvements. One product received the “National Inspection-Free Product†title, and five others were named “Anhui Famous Brands.†The company has invested nearly 20 million yuan in safety and environmental rectification, conducting 12 inspections and addressing five major hazards.
Looking ahead, the company aims to achieve industrial circulation through upgrading and relocation to the Hefei Chemical Industrial Park. This move will help extend the industrial chain, promote resource recycling, and adopt the latest clean technologies. As Chairman Fang Ligui stated, the company is at a critical stage of development and is seizing opportunities to integrate regional chemical resources, build a strong economic circle, and enhance its position as a leader in high-tech and fine chemicals. Through innovation and restructuring, the Anhui Chlor-Alkali Chemical Group is setting a new standard for sustainable industrial growth.
