最近，北京跑出一个超级独角兽：中科合成油完成数十亿元融资，资方包括中建材新材料基金。 它的主要高管叫李永旺，出生于1963年，是中国科学院山西煤炭化学研究所研究员，也是中科合成油的 首席科学家、总经理。 这是家混合所有制企业，总部北京怀柔。伊泰集团（民营）是大股东，国有股东中科院煤化所、潞安矿 业、徐矿集团和神华煤制油持股为超26%。 然而，它的业务很"国家队"，研究怎么把煤炭变成油和化工原料：靠特定催化剂和反应设备，让煤炭里 的碳元素经过化学反应，变成能直接用的好油（比如柴油、汽油），还有生产塑料、化肥等的化工原 料。 这项工程，虽然极其重要，但研发周期非常漫长（超20年）。公司从2006年成立，历经19年，融资7 轮，目前还在研发路上。 插播广告：你是AI创业者吗？你是否有兴趣加入华为AI生态？最近，华为启动"华为云杯"2025人工智能 应用创新大赛，这是一个很好的抱紧华为大腿的机会，是一个较好的技术加速+资源跳板。推荐你报 名。 根据其过往递交的招股书，2019年-2021年和2022 年 1-6 月，公司实现营业收入分别约为 12.89 亿元、 9.56 亿元、10.68 亿元及 5.32 亿元。 首 ...

Core Viewpoint - The development of the Fischer-Tropsch iron-based catalyst, known as CNFT, significantly enhances the efficiency of coal-to-oil conversion, addressing key challenges in the coal indirect liquefaction technology [1][2]. Group 1: Catalyst Development - The CNFT catalyst was developed by the National Energy Group to improve coal-to-oil technology, which is crucial for energy security in China due to its rich coal and limited oil resources [2]. - Initial challenges included insufficient wear resistance and stability, as well as low activity and yield of high-value products [2]. - The research team innovatively combined iron and silicon under controlled conditions, enhancing catalyst strength while maintaining active surface area, and utilized low-temperature preparation to prevent pore structure issues [2][3]. Group 2: Industrial Scaling Challenges - The transition from laboratory to industrial scale faced multiple challenges, including issues with wear resistance and product quality during the scaling process [3][4]. - The team conducted extensive trials, including a 2000-hour long-term operation test, to refine the catalyst formulation and address industrial application requirements [3][4]. - Continuous production faced difficulties due to the viscosity of the catalyst slurry, which required custom equipment and solutions to ensure stable operation [4]. Group 3: Performance and Impact - The CNFT-1 catalyst has been successfully implemented in major coal indirect liquefaction plants, resulting in a 5% increase in production capacity and extending maintenance intervals from one year to three years [5]. - The catalyst also improved the yield of high-value oil wax by 14% compared to similar catalysts, driving overall industry advancements [5]. - Following the success of CNFT-1, a new generation of low CO2 selective CNFT-2 catalyst was developed, reducing CO2 emissions by 15,000 tons annually for every million tons of oil produced [5].
