The project was inaugurated today during the Fajr
Decade celebrations under the directive of President Masoud Pezeshkian, with
the presence of the CEO of the National Petrochemical Company and other
national and provincial officials.
All equipment in this unit was fully designed,
manufactured, and installed by domestic engineering teams. The system converts
gases that would normally be flared into valuable compounds, including high-purity
hydrogen (99.98%) and CO- and CO₂-rich gases, which are
reused in the production process.
The hydrogen is injected into the synthesis
reactor loop, increasing methanol output by up to 150 tons per day, while
recycled gases used in furnaces reduce natural gas consumption by 10%,
significantly lowering energy costs.
Beyond improving the company’s economic
performance (over $1 million in monthly profit), the project achieves full
flare elimination, reduces environmental pollutants, and represents a major
step toward green and sustainable development in Iran’s petrochemical industry.
