On May 29, 2025, the "Technology Deep Dive, Global Empowerment – 2025 Honeywell UOP Petroleum Refining Conference" grandly convened in Wuhan. Industry leaders, technical experts, and corporate representatives gathered to engage in in-depth discussions around core themes including technological innovation driving high-quality development, localized innovation building global competitiveness, and seizing new opportunities for going global. Mr. Li Yansheng, Chief Engineer of Wison Engineering, was invited to attend and shared the fruitful results of Wison Engineering's deep collaboration with Honeywell UOP in the methanol-to-olefins (MTO) field during a roundtable forum, sparking widespread industry attention.


With technological innovation and localized services as its core themes, the conference featured multiple brilliant keynote speeches. Topics ranged from innovative upgrading technologies for integrated refining and petrochemicals, coal/biomass to olefins or sustainable aviation fuel via MTO/MTJ technologies, quality upgrades of targeted low-carbon olefin production technologies, and the upgrading and diversified development of aromatic complex units, to digital empowerment writing a new chapter in the transformation and upgrading of the petrochemical industry. The conference comprehensively analyzed cutting-edge process technologies and market trends, focusing on hotspots such as green and low-carbon technologies, new energy utilization, and digital technology, providing new ideas for the industry's green transition.

During the roundtable forum sessions, renowned industry experts and corporate representatives held lively discussions on topics such as "Diversified Technologies for Olefin Feedstocks" and "Technological Breakthrough – Challenges and Pathways for China's Refining and Petrochemical Transformation". All parties freely exchanged insights, sharing industry innovation achievements and development experiences, and building a communication bridge for deepened cooperation among enterprises. Mr. Li Yansheng, Chief Engineer of Wison Engineering, stated that as the world's first producer to obtain the advanced MTO technology license from Honeywell UOP, Wison Engineering has successfully helped domestic and international clients achieve production capacity improvement and cost reduction with efficiency enhancement by deeply integrating its self-developed olefin separation technology with UOP's processes. Mr. Li particularly noted: "Wison Engineering's olefin separation technology, leveraging the advantages of low investment, low energy consumption, and high yield, was selected as a demonstration technology for coal-to-olefins during China's '12th Five-Year Plan' period and has been applied in more than ten large-scale domestic and international units, becoming a key driver for industry technological upgrading." At the same time, Mr. Li conducted an in-depth analysis of the strategic opportunities and challenges faced by Chinese enterprises in "going global" by combining industry practices. Regarding the international development of Chinese enterprises, Mr. Li shared Wison Engineering's differentiated competition strategy. Wison's modular delivery model significantly improves project execution efficiency and effectively shortens the construction cycle through standardized design, factory prefabrication, and integrated installation. This breakthrough solution has successfully addressed the challenges of resource allocation in overseas projects and has been widely applied in markets such as the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and the Americas, providing replicable successful experiences for Chinese enterprises to "go global".

With the accelerated transformation of China's energy structure, regions such as Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, and Shanxi have successively launched coal-to-oil and coal-to-olefins projects, creating a broad market space for Wison Engineering and Honeywell UOP. Mr. Li emphasized that the two sides will rely on their technological synergy to continuously optimize full-industrial-chain solutions for methanol-to-olefins. In the future, Wison Engineering and Honeywell UOP will expand cooperation into more fields, providing clean, efficient, and low-carbon solutions for the industry through the dual drivers of "technological innovation + engineering implementation".
