With the increasing global focus on environmental protection and sustainable development, the trend of the chemical raw materials and chemical products manufacturing industry moving towards green and low-carbon development is becoming increasingly apparent. The development direction of enterprises in energy conservation and emission reduction and green production is also becoming increasingly clear. In terms of energy utilization, enterprises will actively adopt clean energy, such as solar energy, wind energy, and hydropower, to reduce their dependence on traditional fossil fuels and lower carbon emissions. Some chemical companies have begun installing solar panels on factory rooftops to use solar energy to provide some of the electricity for the production process; other companies have cooperated with wind power companies to purchase wind power for production. In terms of production processes, green synthesis processes will be more widely applied. Bio-based material synthesis technology will continue to develop, using renewable biomass as raw materials to produce chemicals, reducing the consumption of non-renewable resources such as petroleum, and lowering carbon emissions during the production process. During production, enterprises will strengthen the recovery and utilization of waste heat and waste pressure to improve energy utilization efficiency. By installing waste heat recovery devices, the waste heat generated during production can be converted into steam or electricity for internal use by the enterprise.

The prospect of the industry's development towards high-end and intelligent levels is very broad, and intelligent manufacturing and digital transformation will bring profound changes to the industry. In terms of intelligent manufacturing, automated production lines and intelligent robots will be more widely used in chemical production. Automated production lines can achieve precise control of the production process, improve production efficiency and product quality, and reduce errors and safety risks caused by manual operation. Intelligent robots can replace manual operations in dangerous and harsh working environments, such as in the handling and loading and unloading of toxic and harmful chemicals. In terms of digital transformation, enterprises will use big data, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things to achieve digital monitoring and management of the production process. By installing sensors on production equipment to collect production data in real time and transmitting the data to the cloud for analysis and processing, enterprises can promptly grasp various information during the production process, such as equipment operating status and product quality parameters, so as to adjust production strategies and optimize production processes in a timely manner. Big data analysis can also help enterprises conduct market forecasting and product research and development, improving the market competitiveness of enterprises.
