On July 31, 2019, Heilongjiang Jinxiang Biology & Chemistry Co., Ltd. (Heilongjiang Jinxiang), a subsidiary under Xiangyu Group, conducted a test run for its corn deep-processing investment project, where a production capacity of 1.50 million tonnes of corn can be reached per year. It is worth mentioning that by now Xiangyu Group is already able to produce 3 million tonnes of corn annually in Heilongjiang Province.

 

The project includes Starch Sugar Industry Centre, Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Centre, and Biotechnology Centre

As is shown in public information, the deep-processing investment project where 1.50 million tonnes of corn can be produced each year is in the control of Heilongjiang Jinxiang. The project started with construction in August 2017. It is reported that a total investment of more than RMB 4 billion (USD 0.58 billion) has been spent. After the completion of the project, 1.50 million t/a of corn, together with 700,000 t/a of crystalline dextroses, 300,000 t/a of sugars for fermentation, 100,000 t/a of threonine, and 10,000 t/a of tryptophan are able to be produced.


The project is mainly based on Starch Sugar Industry Centre, Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Centre, and Biotechnology Centre. The purpose is to improve the strategic development between the starch sugar industry and the amino acid industry in China, in tight coordination with relevant Chinese policies concerning the cultivation of industrial clusters for corn deep-processing projects. With the help of the best grain source from the area of Suihua as well as the strong ability of grain purchase and management from Xiangyu Group, it is not difficult to produce 1.50 million t/a of corn, 700,000 t/a of crystalline dextroses, 300,000 t/a of sugars for fermentation, 100,000 t/a of threonine, and 10,000 t/a of tryptophan, according to some market insiders.
