The project has entered the pilot phase, rewriting the history of China's long-term inability to produce cyclohexene and its downstream products, and is a major technological breakthrough. The localization of this technology can save the country hundreds of millions of yuan in the use of patented technology. The catalyst can save tens of millions of foreign exchange for the country each year, and each new production line can add several hundred million yuan in output value each year.
At the first Henan Science and Technology Entrepreneurship Contest held in the National University of China, the benzene selective hydrogenation cyclohexene catalyst preparation technology project chaired by Liu Shouchang, professor of chemistry at Zhengzhou University, won the special prize and received a business value of 2 million yuan. Funds and a three-year, 200-square-metre venue support.
