Xinhua Silk Road: Biomass gasifier technique tested to be reliable for green methanol project in Hinggan League, N. China
BEIJING, Oct. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In Hinggan League, north China, a green power-enabled hydrogen plus biomass to methanol production project completed its biomass gasifier technique testing recently.
Under witness of industry experts, the first materials feeding for its gasification furnace proved that biomass gasification technique, core of the project, is reliable under different operation conditions.
Upon success of the testing, formal operation of the first phase of the world's largest green methanol production project in Hinggan League, northeastern Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, is around the corner.
As a notable move in green methanol production sector, the first phase of the project was invested by a local green energy company under a subsidiary of Goldwind Science & Technology, involving 2.296 billion yuan of investment in total.
Capable of producing 250,000 tonnes of green methanol annually, the first phase of the project is expected to be a reliable source of large-scale green methanol supply for global shipping industry and downstream sectors.
Currently, green and low-carbon fuels such as green methanol are a common pursuit for global shipping giants eager to speed up green transformation.
The project, which adopts environmental friendly devices, appears to be a solid pillar for the green methanol purchasing agreements signed between Goldwind Science & Technology and global shipping giants Maersk and Hapag-Lloyd respectively.
Thanks to the tested reliable biomass gasifier technique, Hinggan League Administrative Office won investment agreements for the second and third phases of the project from the aforementioned subsidiary of Goldwind Science & Technology recently.
Year to date, related expansion projects are scheduled to enter construction and after their formal operation, aggregate production capacity of the project is likely to reach 1.45 million tonnes annually.
Situated in a region with rich wind resource, the project leverages wind power to produce green hydrogen and local cornstalk and other biomass to produce green methanol, contributing to building the Hinggan League "green hydrogen-ammonia-methanol" demonstration base.
