Technological innovation, what companies need most - from the petrochemical researchers

"When I came to the stage to accept the award, could I take a picture for me?" A representative from the award-winning company asked the reporters around for assistance. At this time, it is 8:45 am on the 21st, and it is still a quarter of an hour before the awarding ceremony for the science and technology awards in the oil and chemical industry began. Many company representatives took this time to take pictures at the conference.

One minute on stage, ten years off the stage. Behind these brief glorious moments of these corporate researchers is the hard work of years or even decades. What are companies most in need of in implementing technological innovation? Let us listen to the voice of researchers from the front line.

Business leaders make the right decision

Li Jian, assistant to general manager of Xuzhou Kaida Fine Chemical Co., Ltd., said that companies that have won the honor of “China Chemical Industry Model Innovation Enterprise” have strong R&D strength and impressive research results.

Xuzhou Kaida Fine Chemical Co., Ltd. is one of the companies that has won this honor. Li Jian said that the decision-making of the company's leaders determines the direction of the company's development, so the leadership attaches great importance to the scientific and technological innovation of the enterprise. It is understood that Xuzhou Kaida Fine Chemical Co., Ltd. has a research and development center with a dedicated technical R&D talent team; annual research funding is guaranteed; R&D investment accounts for 4% to 5% of the company’s annual sales revenue; Research incentive mechanism. "Businesses can do this, first of all, leaders attach importance to." Li Jian said.

Hebei Shenghua Chemical Co., Ltd. also won the honor of "China's Chemical Industry Model Innovation Enterprise" at this conference. Ma Yulian, deputy general manager, said in an interview: "I think that the company's scientific and technological innovation can not do a good job, first of all depends on whether the leadership attaches importance to whether there is ahead of the advanced science and technology to guide the development of the enterprise." According to Ma Yulian, 2007 The provincial technology center was listed on the company. This year, Hebei Shenghua Co., Ltd. applied for the “Hebei Province Chlor-Alkali Engineering Research Center” qualification. Now, the company is planning to establish a postdoctoral mobile station. Ma Yulian said: "All these things, the company's leaders are hands-on."

Engineering research paves the way

In layman's terms, engineering research is the study of how to move the results of the laboratory into the company, even to the whole industry.

Dr. Chen Jing, a researcher and doctoral tutor of the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, took home the Technology Invention Award at this commendation conference. In an interview with reporters, Chen Jing repeatedly stressed the importance of engineering research. She believes that from research and development to practical application and then to industrial development, we must achieve a big leap. This link, known abroad as engineering research, is precisely the weakest place in China's science and technology innovation and the biggest problem in current technological innovation. The scientific and technological achievements that come out of the laboratories of universities and research institutes are still a long way from achieving industrialization promotion, and will face the risk of failure numerous times. In general, universities and research institutes do not have the conditions for industrialization. How to increase the communication between production, education, and research, and strengthen technological research and engineering research are the areas that need the most attention and improvement. Once this link is improved, technological innovation will play a greater role in enterprise applications.

Anqing Hexing Chemical Co., Ltd. won the first prize of the Science and Technology Progress Award at this commendation conference. The company's practice proved the importance of engineering research and the possibility of implementation. Cao Zhusheng, general manager of the company's comprehensive management department, told reporters that their award-winning scientific and technological innovation project, “The Research and Industrialization of the Green Electrochemical Clean Production Process of 3,000 Ton/year Succinic Acid,” was completed in cooperation with Zhejiang University of Technology. According to reports, the company’s cooperation with universities and colleges has achieved a number of technological innovations and inventions. The company has cooperated with Zhejiang University since 1994 and has maintained a stable cooperative relationship. Cooperation with Tsinghua University has also been for 5 years. At present, the "PBS biodegradable plastics project" jointly developed with Tsinghua University has completed a small test and is preparing to enter the pilot stage. Cao Zhusheng said: "The division of labor between the school and the enterprise has its own emphasis. The school is mainly responsible for the early-stage R&D and small-scale test. The company is mainly responsible for the pilot test and industrialization of R&D results. Such cooperation has played its own advantages."

Policy funds share risk

When it comes to scientific and technological innovation, the two words that all the interviewed winners mention most are "risks", and this risk cannot be completely avoided. Therefore, the company hopes that the country can reduce the pressure of some risks for enterprises from policies, funds and other aspects.

Liu Zhaoming, deputy dean of the Shandong Provincial Institute of Marine Science and Technology, holding a science and technology innovation award certificate, told reporters that today this award-winning project has spent nearly 10 years since it was approved. He said: "The most important thing for technological innovation is to make breakthroughs in technology, but the risk of this work is so great that we must face up to failure and allow failure. We hope that the state can understand innovative enterprises and create policies for them. More relaxed and innovative environment."

Cao Zhusheng of Anqing Hexing Chemical Co., Ltd. said: “At present, the main problem facing the technological innovation of our company is capital. Some testing equipment and pilot plant equipment are very expensive, but due to the fine chemical engineering division, these equipments are not universal. Therefore, the investment is very large, so I hope the country can give some guidance funds."

Chen Jing of the Lanzhou Institute of Physical and Chemical Research at the Chinese Academy of Sciences believes that some powerful large state-owned petroleum and chemical companies should play a leading role in technological innovation and assume responsibility for promoting technological progress in the industry.

Ma Yulian, deputy general manager of Shenghua, said that SMEs are hard to bear the high risk of technological innovation, so they also hope that the state will give financial support.
