Green Upgrading: Innovation in Green Production of Silica Under the Dual-Carbon Goal

Green production has become the core competitive dimension of the food grade silica industry, and Zhongqi and Shandong Zhonglian took the lead in building a low-carbon production system.


Green production has become the core competitive dimension of the food grade silica industry, and Zhongqi and Shandong Zhonglian took the lead in building a low-carbon production system. Through patented water recycling technology, Zhongqi has reduced production water consumption by 40% and achieved a solid waste recovery rate of 90%. Shandong Zhonglian's dust-free production process reduces dust emissions by 80%, and energy consumption is 25% lower than the industry average. On the product side, both parties have launched clean label products with no residual solvent, which comply with EU ECOCERT standards. These green measures not only reduce production costs, but also meet the ESG needs of downstream food enterprises, and have become an important weight for winning high-end orders.
