CIMC Enric Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively, “CIMC Enric” or “Company”)announced that the coke oven gas to hydrogen and LNG co-production project invested and constructed by Angang CIMC (Yingkou) New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (“Angang CIMC”), has officially commenced operations, with a grand inauguration ceremony held in Bayuquan District, Liaoning.
At the resource end, the project produces high-purity hydrogen and LNG by separating and purifying coke oven gas—a byproduct of steel manufacturing. This process transforms waste into valuable resources, significantly enhancing added value while aligning with the principles of a circular economy. This project is expected to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 470,000 tons, sulfur dioxide emissions by 174 tons, and nitrogen oxides by 1,344 tons annually. Based on Angang Steel’s abundant coke oven gas resources, this project will produce 15,000 tons “blue hydrogen” annually, tailored to local conditions. Industry reports indicate that hydrogen production from coke oven gas can achieve over 88% carbon reductions compared to traditional natural gas-based methods, and over 95% compared to coal-based hydrogen production, respectively.
