• Implementation and operation of Smart & Green e-station: completed the planning and construction of the “Taoyuan Jiadong Smart & Green Demo e-Station”, deployed mobile Life battery modules for not only the verification of CPC-own soft carbon materials, but also the potential application in emergency rescue in distress areas; conducted ongoing solar power generation and the verification of the Smart EMS (Energy Management System) in “Chiayi Xinyi Smart & Green Demo e-Station”.
• Conducted research on optimization of the gasoline/ diesel and petrochemical raw material production processes and offered related advisory services to resolve on-site problems, and to enhance operational efficiency in order to achieve energy-saving goals.
•Technology transfer of newly-formulated CPC Marilube, Guoguang brand low-alkali marine motor oil, environmentally-friendly metalworking fluid, and long- life equipment oil.
• Development of CPC Racing CVT, Mirage PRO CVTF, CPC Superpower C3/SN Fully Synthetic Motor Oil 5W/30, CPC Racing C3/SN Fully Synthetic Motor Oil 5W/30, CPC Racing MB SN Fully Synthetic Motor Oil 5W/40 and American Petroleum Institute (API) ST 0W/20 passenger car engine oil and related products.
• Development of the synthetic technology on diffusion and elastic micro particles, with the ongoing incorporation with well-known global companies for the promotion of eye-protection lamp products.
• Development of bio-based and bio-degradable plastics in compliance with the national plastics restriction policy. Bio-based plastics use biomaterials as feedstock, and bio-degradable plastics undergo further microbial decomposition to carbon dioxide and water. In terms of R&D on bio-degradable plastics, we focused on polylactic acid (PLA) as the short-term target, and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), which is more environmental friendly, as the focus of our long- term effort, in order to reduce pollution caused by synthetic plastics. In regard to feedstock selection, non-food sources, such as lignocellulose, methanol
or natural gas are also among our research scope for the mutual benefit of economic development and environmental protection.
• Development of novel biomaterials, including whitening and antimicrobial ingredients in cosmetics as well as in medical products to break into the retail market.
Green Technology Research Institute
• Completed the installation of solar photovoltaic systems on more than 210 sites with a total capacity greater than 10.96MW in compliance with national energy transition policy.
• Established a cloud-based management system to monitor and maintain the operation of photovoltaic power stations, and built up a big data system of PV electricity generation capacity all around Taiwan. The state of power generation has been monitored in all the photovoltaic power stations by the cloud-based management system, and with the introduction of standard operation procedure (SOP) for maintenance, operation efficiency and safety can be further improved.
•Implementation and operation of Smart & Green e-stations: completed the planning and construction of the “Hualien Guangfu Smart & Green Demo e-Station”, deployed a mobile LTO energy storage system in order to provide emergency power support to local communities; conducted ongoing verification of the multiple power supply system in “Tainan Qianfeng Smart & Green Demo e-Station”.
• Development of bio-based carbon materials for supercapacitor from biomass waste with proprietary production technology and patent portfolio. Completed the trial production of supercapacitor samples (capacitance: 1200F) meeting the 40138 size specification with similar performance to commercial products.
• Developed proprietary transesterification process technology for further pilot production of fatty acid esters that can be widely used in the application of biodiesel, bio lubricants and specialty chemicals.
