[China Iron Ore Brief Review: Iron Ore in Shandong May Continue to Edge Higher] This week, at mines and beneficiation plants in Shandong, the ex-mine quote for 64 grade alkaline fines on a dry basis, before tax and settled by bank acceptance, was 899, up 17 yuan/mt. Steelmakers raised prices in tandem, most miners maintained normal production, and some mines slightly increased output. Steel mills showed moderate willingness to purchase, mainly under long-term contracts, while shipments from small plants and traders were also relatively good, with overall transactions improving; after a large mine in Zaozhuang resumed production

[SMM Hydrogen Energy Flash] Recently, the Green Hydrogen Engineering Technology segment of Aerospace Engineering received a series of good news, successfully signing contracts for two major green hydrogen engineering projects. One is the water electrolysis hydrogen production project for the hydrogen refueling station of Zhongqing Energy Development (Shandong) Co., Ltd., and the other is the electrolytic hydrogen production unit project for the Inner Mongolia Baofeng green hydrogen-coupled coal-to-olefins project. Aerospace Engineering will provide a total of 16 sets of HTJSDJ-1000/1.6 alkaline electrolyzers for these two projects, as well as supporting post-processing systems, utility engineering equipment, and engineering design services. This signing marked Aerospace Engineering’s simultaneous breakthroughs in the two major fields of green transportation and green hydrogen chemical engineering.
