The two parties engaged in interactive discussions on issues such as the content of R&D projects aimed at advancing spot trading and the clean, efficient utilization of coal, the promotion of related technologies, and collaborative partnership models.

On June 9, a delegation led by Jia Suotang, former president of Shanxi University and professor at the Institute of Laser Spectroscopy of Shanxi University, visited Pengfei Group to explore collaborative opportunities, bringing with them cutting-edge technologies. The group was received by Zheng Peng, Chairman of the Board and President of Pengfei Group. During the meeting, both sides engaged in an interactive discussion on topics including the advancement of R&D projects related to spot trading of coal and its clean, efficient utilization, the presentation of relevant technologies, and potential cooperation models.

 

At the meeting, the participating experts presented an overview of the Laser Spectroscopy Institute at Shanxi University, including its research priorities and the technical aspects and applications of its R&D projects.

The goal is to develop two systems: first, an inbound coal management system that enables fully automated, closed-loop monitoring of coal procurement, preparation, measurement, and storage, with vehicle‑by‑vehicle analysis and inspection to prevent substandard coal from entering the plant; second, an online coal‑quality monitoring system for the coal preparation plant, providing real-time quality data to guide precise coal blending, optimize coal washing, and refine co‑firing strategies, thereby achieving clean and efficient coal utilization.

We have developed carbon-14 detection technology and plan to deliver a proof-of-concept prototype by the end of this year; we have now completed the fabrication of the key components.

 

Professor Jia Suotang of the Institute of Laser Spectroscopy at Shanxi University stated that he hopes to leverage industry–university–research collaboration to fully capitalize on each party’s strengths, thereby achieving an effective integration of technological advances with market applications in areas such as coal quality analysis, mine‑gas detection, and carbon‑emission monitoring.

Chairman Zheng Peng expressed great anticipation for the successful industrialization of the research’s new findings. He stated that, by leveraging robust scientific research capabilities and a strong talent pool, they aim to establish a long-term, close‑knit, and highly efficient platform for R&D and technology transfer, thereby strengthening the company’s core competitiveness and fostering mutually beneficial outcomes for both the institute and the enterprise.
