Financial Performance - COFCO Technology's revenue has fluctuated, with a peak of 234.69 billion in 2021, followed by a decline to 203.79 billion in 2023, and a projected revenue of 200.53 billion in 2024 [6][12]. - The company reported a net profit of 10.54 billion in 2021, but faced a loss of over 6 billion in 2023, indicating a significant downturn in financial performance [6][12]. - The gross margin dropped to 5.51% in 2023, reflecting the industry's low profitability and competitive pressures [14][23]. Industry Overview - The corn deep processing industry in China has an overcapacity of 1.2 billion tons, with an actual processing volume of approximately 76 million tons, resulting in an average operating rate of only 63% [7][14]. - COFCO Technology holds a 3.6% market share in the corn starch sector, producing 1.36 million tons, ranking ninth among competitors [7][9]. Business Segments - COFCO Technology operates three main business segments: 1. Alcohol and its by-products, contributing 49% of revenue in 2024 [11]. 2. Starch, starch sugars, and related products, also accounting for nearly half of the revenue [11]. 3. Biodegradable materials, which have not yet generated revenue [11][22]. Market Challenges - The alcohol industry faces severe overcapacity, with a domestic fuel ethanol production capacity of 587.5 million tons against a demand of only 376 million tons, leading to low operating rates [18][19]. - The company is exploring non-grain biomass fuel transitions, but faces challenges in scaling up production due to higher costs associated with cellulose ethanol [20][21]. Growth Opportunities - Potential growth areas include high-end alcohol products, functional sugars, and biodegradable materials, particularly PLA and PHA, which are derived from corn starch [24][25][30]. - The approval of alulose as a new food ingredient may provide a new revenue stream, as it is positioned as a healthier sugar alternative [3][24]. Transformation Efforts - COFCO Technology is attempting to shift its product structure to address market challenges, but the transformation process has been slow and fraught with difficulties [20][32]. - The company has made progress in developing cellulose ethanol and biodegradable materials, but large-scale production remains a challenge due to high costs and competition [21][30].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the recent developments in China's green hydrogen-based energy projects, highlighting the first batch of pilot projects for green liquid fuel technology and their significance for the industry amid global economic challenges and energy transition uncertainties [3][4]. Group 1: Pilot Projects Overview - The first batch of pilot projects includes three types of green fuels: fuel ethanol, green methanol (referred to as "green alcohol"), and green ammonia, involving nine company projects [4]. - The Northeast region of China is a key area for these projects, with abundant wind and solar resources to support green hydrogen production [4]. - Many projects utilize renewable energy sources like wind and solar power for electrolysis to produce green hydrogen, which is then synthesized into green alcohol or green ammonia [4]. Group 2: Market Demand and Industry Trends - The demand for green hydrogen, green alcohol, and green ammonia will directly impact the scale of wind and solar energy consumption in the future [6]. - Eight out of the nine pilot projects focus on green alcohol and green ammonia, aligning with the green transition and new regulations in the global shipping and aviation industries [7]. - Green ammonia and green alcohol are seen as important solutions for decarbonizing the shipping industry, with agreements already in place for supply [7]. Group 3: Challenges to Industrialization - Despite the launch of projects, only 5% of planned capacity has found buyers, indicating that market absorption remains a significant challenge [9]. - The price competition between shipowners and green fuel suppliers is intense, with current production costs for green alcohol being significantly higher than market competitiveness thresholds [9]. - The production cost of green hydrogen fuels is heavily influenced by the cost of renewable energy electricity, which constitutes over 50% of the total production cost [9][10]. Group 4: Innovations and Cost Reduction Strategies - Many projects are adopting innovative energy storage technologies to stabilize production and reduce costs, such as using liquid nitrogen storage to manage excess renewable energy [11]. - Research indicates that when renewable energy prices drop to 0.15 yuan per kilowatt-hour, the price of green ammonia could become competitive with existing gray ammonia prices [10].

Core Viewpoint - The article emphasizes the growing interest in the development of new carbon sources and biotechnological conversion, particularly in the context of industrial carbon-rich gas fermentation for fuel ethanol production. Group 1: Industrial Carbon-Rich Gas Fermentation Technology - The anaerobic microorganisms utilize the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway to absorb and fix CO and CO2 from industrial carbon-rich gases, synthesizing products like acetic acid and ethanol. The main advantages of this technology include low energy consumption, high safety, strong substrate specificity of enzymes, and high adaptability to raw material gas composition [3][4]. - The overall efficient conversion process is identified as a core challenge for scaling up industrial applications, closely related to stable gas supply, efficient strain development, fermentation process optimization, and market prospects [3][4]. Group 2: Progress of Industrial Carbon-Rich Gas Biomanufacturing Enterprises - Companies like LanzaTech and Jupeng Bio have established multiple industrial fermentation facilities. LanzaTech, a leader in gas fermentation, has formed a joint venture with Shougang Group, operating four production bases in China with an annual capacity of 210,000 tons of fuel ethanol and 23,200 tons of microbial protein by 2025 [4][6]. - Jupeng Bio is noted for its unique full-chain technology from biomass gasification to gas fermentation, with a demonstration plant completed in 2021 and a large-scale commercial facility under construction in Inner Mongolia [6][8]. - Other companies such as Synata Bio and Jitai Laibo Bio are rapidly developing in this field, with Synata Bio's 10-ton gas fermentation facility already completed [7][8]. Group 3: Challenges in Industrialization - The technology faces four main challenges: 1. **Gas Source Stability**: Variability in gas composition and quantity from upstream industries can affect the growth and metabolism of acetic acid-producing bacteria, potentially leading to fermentation system failure [9]. 2. **Process Control Precision**: There is a need for precise control technologies for gas inflow and product composition, as current methods for monitoring CO levels are inadequate [10][11]. 3. **Reactor Design**: Existing reactors often have low capacity and high production costs, necessitating the development of larger reactors while considering efficiency and operational costs [16][17]. 4. **Separation and Purification**: The low concentration of ethanol in fermentation necessitates the development of new separation technologies to reduce energy consumption during purification [20][22]. Group 4: Upcoming Industry Events - The Fourth Synthetic Biology and Green Bio-Manufacturing Conference will be held from August 20-22, 2025, in Ningbo, Zhejiang, focusing on new carbon source exploration and bioconversion opportunities [23][28].
