In recent months, the ripple effects caused by soaring international crude oil prices have sparked widespread concern across various sectors. Many are now asking: Given the huge demand in the energy market and Yunnan’s abundant biological resources, why not seize this opportunity to accelerate the development of its own bio-energy industry? Recently, officials from Yunnan’s Economic Commission, Sinopec Yunnan Branch, and PetroChina Southwest Sales Company shared their insights on this topic.
Wu Jun, Director of the Light Industry Division at Yunnan’s Economic Commission, emphasized that higher oil prices present significant potential for Yunnan’s bio-energy sector. He pointed out that the fuel ethanol industry currently holds real economic value. According to his estimates, as long as the international crude oil price exceeds $60 per barrel, ethanol gasoline can become profitable. This means that $60 is the break-even point for bio-energy use. With current oil prices exceeding $90 per barrel, the conditions are more favorable than ever.
Using concrete data, Wu explained that with rising domestic gasoline prices, the cost of fuel ethanol has reached 5,800 yuan per ton, while production costs in Yunnan are around 4,400 yuan per ton, including taxes. Following the release of a list of 10 designated fuel ethanol producers and 6 alternative companies, the Economic Commission continues to identify new enterprises, hoping to include them in the official list. These companies remain optimistic about the future of the industry.
According to the newly revised medium- to long-term development plan for fuel ethanol and deep processing in Yunnan, the province aims to produce 2 million tons of fuel ethanol by 2010. Of this, 200,000 tons will be used for blending, and 1.8 million tons for further processing. If these targets are met, the output value of Yunnan’s fuel ethanol industry could reach 18.7 billion yuan, enough to establish a new competitive industry, Wu said.
However, Wu also noted that for the widespread adoption of fuel ethanol, national support is essential. He suggested that Yunnan should be designated as a pilot province, with backing from Sinopec and PetroChina, to enable ethanol to be added to gasoline at gas stations. Currently, Yunnan is actively seeking government approval, while relevant departments are working on supportive policies to promote renewable energy development. This year, Yunnan's fuel ethanol production capacity is expected to reach 450,000 to 500,000 tons. However, due to its exclusion from the ethanol fuel pilot program, companies can only produce alcohol.
Sinopec and PetroChina have both expressed strong support for Yunnan’s bio-energy initiatives. Meng Fanchang, Party Secretary of Sinopec Yunnan Branch, stated that Sinopec has always prioritized the new energy sector. The company has established a dedicated research department for new energy and is closely monitoring other alternative energy options. In September 2005, the Sinopec Nanjing Industrial Biotechnology Joint Research and Development Center was launched to study biofuels and biomaterials. In July 2006, Sinopec decided to build a biodiesel refinery with an annual capacity of 100,000 tons in Panzhihua, along with an energy forest base covering 400,000 to 500,000 mu. Additionally, a 2,000-ton biodiesel R&D base in Hebei Province was completed that same year.
The representative from PetroChina’s Southwest Sales Branch also highlighted the company’s early focus on alternative energy during the “10th Five-Year Plan†period. In August last year, PetroChina signed a cooperation framework agreement with Yunnan Province to develop biomass energy and create a comprehensive development plan for the sector. He believes that the growth of alternative energy sources can help alleviate the pressure on refined oil supplies.
DSBC Pneumatic Cylinder Barrel
FESTO standard cylinder DSBC is a type of cylinder that uses a profile cylinder and complies with ISO 15552 standard. Air Cylinder Barrel.The proximity switch can be quickly and stably installed in the profile groove, with a signal provided by a magnetic piston, and can be used for position detection. The Festo DSBC cylinder is equipped with powerful manual or self adjusting throttle buffering, which can best adapt to load and speed changes. The DSBC piston rod cylinder has a wide variety of derivative types, providing a variety of optional performance options that can be applied to different applications (such as piston rod modification) and/or environments (heat and dust resistance). Pneumatic Cylinder Barrel.Other optional performance options include low friction, constant operation, end position locking, clamping unit, anti torsion piston rod, strong corrosion resistance, ATEX certification, profiles with grooves on three sides, etc. Festo can also provide other options as requested. For piston rod cylinders, Festo provides a variety of compatible installation accessories for installing cylinders, piston rods, and valves, as well as connecting multiple cylinders.
