June 23, Henan Zhang Zhenxia, head of the Provincial Junheng Industrial Group Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Junheng Biotechnology”), completed all activities of the second Zhengzhou-Luxembourg “Aerial Silk Road” International Cooperation Forum and returned from Luxembourg.
While waiting for the flight, she couldn’t wait to hold a video conference with colleagues in China to convey the spirit of the meeting and share the “results of cooperation” in Luxembourg. “In the past few days, we have witnessed the listing of the first green bond supporting Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, and reached a cooperation intention with a European aviation logistics company. This trip is so worthwhile.” Zhang Zhenxia said between words Unable to conceal my joy. Before the video meeting ended, I also found some opportunities to share with my colleagues on the way”Coincidental encounter” – the SAF used by the KLM flight she took was “made by Jun Heng”.
As a private enterprise born and raised in Puyang, why can we go to Luxembourg as a member of the Henan Provincial delegation to participate in the second Zhengzhou-Luxembourg “Aerial Silk Road” International Cooperation forum? Why can companies be “sought after” by well-known foreign airlines on forums?
A few days ago, the Henan Daily research team visited the Junheng Biological Production Base in Puyang Industrial Park to gain an in-depth understanding of the exploration and harvest of this private enterprise. Struggle and glory.
In response to the situation, the first private enterprise to deploy “SAF”
When walking into Junheng Biotechnology Co., Ltd. located in the Puyang Industrial Park, there is a sign at the door that reads “National Specialized, Special and New ‘Little Giant’ Enterprise”, silently describing the company’s core strength.
In the most conspicuous position of the booth on the first floor, there is a row of jars containing oils, arranged in order from turbid to clear. “It completely presents the transformation process of ‘gutter oil’ into sustainable bio-fuel (SAF). Each bottle of oil represents a key process in the production process. Caixiu was silent for a while, and then whispered: “Caihuan has two A younger sister, they told the servants: Whatever their elder sisters can do, they can also do. “” Zhang Zhenhui, executive director of Junheng Biotech, said proudly, “The small bottles contain ‘university knowledge’. We have mastered the innovation code behind each bottle and firmly hold the intellectual property rights in our own hands.”
The reason why Junheng Biotechnology can achieve independent control of intellectual property rights is inseparable from ten years of intensive industry development.
Zhang Junqiang, the founder of the company, said that Junheng Biotech was originally a “veteran” deeply involved in the traditional chemical industry. In 2011, after Puyang was listed as the third batch of resource-depleted cities in the country, Zhang Junqiang quickly led the team to embark on a transformation path and proactively deploy green energy. In 2012, Henan Junheng Industrial Group Biotechnology Co., Ltd. was registered and established. “The depletion of oil cities means the end of the era of resource-driven development. If you want to survive and live well, you must turn to innovation-driven development.” Zhang Junqiang is extremely sober.
In March 2014, the company signed an industry-university-research cooperation agreement with Zhengzhou University; in July 2018, Henan Junheng was establishedBiotechnology academician workstation; in October 2021, signed a key laboratory for high-end lubricating materials and a pilot base for bio-based nylon and high-end polyolefin materials with Sinopec Dalian Petrochemical Research Institute; in July 2022, trial production of hydrocarbon-based biodiesel.
Ten years of innovation have yielded numerous fruits.
In October 2022, 10,000 tons of low-condensing second-generation bio-jet fuel produced by the company made its maiden voyage to Amsterdam, the Netherlands, realizing a single batch of my country’s green high-end fuel Maximum export volume; In June 2023, at the 10th anniversary of the construction of the Zhengzhou-Luxembourg “Aerial Silk Road” and the maiden voyage ceremony of the Zhengzhou-Luxembourg Green Silk Road, Junheng Biotech signed a license agreement with the Zhengzhou Airport Area Management Committee, Henan Aviation Investment, etc. The Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) strategic cooperation agreement has become an alternative aviation fuel for the green “Aerial Silk Road”; on January 20, 2024, Junheng Biotech obtained the sustainable aviation fuel airworthiness certificate from the Civil Aviation Administration of China, becoming the first domestic company Private enterprises that have obtained airworthiness certificates for sustainable aviation fuels.
Recently, Junheng Biotechnology, as the only invited company in Puyang, went to Luxembourg with the Henan Provincial delegation to participate in the second Zhengzhou-Luxembourg “Aerial Silk Road” International Cooperation Forum and China (Henan)-Luxembourg Economic, Trade and Cultural Exchange Activities. As soon as it was unveiled, it was favored and favored by major European airlines.
Following the trend, we are the leader in the field of bio-jet fuel
In the eyes of many people, Junheng is facing the “double dividends” of macro trends and industry markets.
From a macro trend perspective. Under the “double carbon” goal, it is the general trend for the global aviation industry to “go green”. The state has made it clear in multiple documents that SAF will become an important aviation fuel for the civil aviation industry to achieve carbon emission reductions. At this time, Junheng broke the foreign technology monopoly and became the first company to achieve mass production of SAF. It can be said that Junheng’s production of SAF is a landmark event in the green development of China’s aviation industry.
From the perspective of the industry market. Compared with traditional petrochemical-based aviation kerosene, SAF can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by up to 85%. Replacing fossil fuels with biojet fuel is a key step in promoting the global air transport industry to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Currently, the world’s major aviation industry chain companies, including Airbus and Boeing, are transitioning to “green”. It is expected that by 2030, the market size of biojet fuel will exceedTen billion dollars. “The cost of SAF produced by Junheng is less than 30%.” Relevant staff from the Civil Aviation Administration of China said, “Junheng Biotech has taken the lead in receiving the ‘airworthiness certificate’, which means that the company has won the first place in the new track of SAF. Machinery has given it an advantage. ”
In the eyes of many people, Junheng Biotech has encountered the best times and led the development of the industry.
How to take advantage of the trend and turn advantages into development and victory?
Zhang Junqiang has a clear mind and full of confidence: “You need to be hard-working to make sure that product quality is constantly optimized and product supply is always stable!”
To ensure product quality advantages, enterprises rely on innovation.
First, increase the proportion of R&D personnel. The company has more than 300 professional technical and management personnel, accounting for 65% of the total employees, providing the “first driving force” for product research and development. The second is to improve the level of science and technology innovation platforms. It has successively established high-level R&D platforms such as “Henan Enterprise Technology Center”, “Henan Junheng Biotechnology Academician Workstation” and “Henan Green Bio-Aviation Kerosene Engineering Research Center”. Use high-energy platforms to continuously empower enterprises to develop with high quality. The third is to increase investment in scientific and technological innovation. In the past 10 years, the company has invested billions of yuan in R&D. Currently, it has more than 30 patents and is responsible for 2 major national-level projects and 5 major provincial-level science and technology projects. “A technological breakthrough can bring about an industrial leap.” Zhang Zhenhui told the author that in the process of developing SAF, the company harvested by-products POE and POA, and is expected to “re-create” a Junheng.
Ensure product supply depends on the project.
Currently, the construction work of Junheng Biotech’s 800,000 tons/year sustainable aviation fuel project is being accelerated.
Seize the opportunity and be the guarantor of the “Aerial Silk Road”
In Luxembourg, on the morning of June 21, local time, Zhang Zhenxia once again witnessed an important moment in the development process of Junheng Bio-jet fuel. Our province issued the first green bond supporting Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. In her view, this represents the confidence of the international capital market in the bio-jet fuel industry, and also means that Junheng Biotech has the opportunity to enjoy the “Silk Road Living Water”Precise drip irrigation.
Zhang Junqiang, founder of Junheng Biotechnology, believes that the company’s participation in the second Zhengzhou-Luxembourg “Aerial Silk Road” International Cooperation Forum is undoubtedly a major event in foreign cooperation. opportunity.
“An enterprise is not only a stage created by a group of people, but also a witness and participant in the development of the times.” Zhang Junqiang said that only by integrating his own ideal pursuit into Only in the cause of the party and the country is it meaningful.
Therefore, Zhang Junqiang also has a deeper understanding of the development and positioning of the company.
——Be a practitioner of the “Aerial Silk Road” industrial chain. As an important part of the joint construction of the “Belt and Road”, the Zhengzhou-Luzhou “Aerial Silk Road” has expanded from air transportation and economic and trade exchanges to finance, humanities, science and technology and other fields, and related industrial projects have been implemented one after another. The joining of Junheng Biotechnology further enriches the connotation of the “Aerial Silk Road” and expands cooperation to the field of “green energy”. This will inject new vitality into the high-quality development of the “Aerial Silk Road”.
——Be the energy provider of the green “Aerial Silk Road”. In June 2023, Junheng Biotech signed a strategic cooperation agreement on sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) with the Zhengzhou Airport Area Management Committee, Henan Aviation Investment, etc., aiming to fuel the green development of the “Aerial Silk Road”. Now, Jun Heng Biotech’s 800,000 tons/year sustainable aviation fuel project has been launched, which will continuously provide green energy for the “Aerial Silk Road” flights.
——Be the promoter of Puyang’s opening up to the outside world. Puyang City’s economy is not highly export-oriented and has always been a prominent shortcoming in its development. It faces difficulties in integrating into the global industrial chain and value chain. As Junheng Biotechnology deeply participates in the construction of the “Aerial Silk Road”, it will surely become a pioneer and promoter of Puyang’s opening up to the outside world.
