A few days ago, the Department of Industry and Information Technology of Liaoning Province, the Development and Reform Commission, the Department of Natural Resources, the Department of Ecology and Environment, and the Department of Emergency Management jointly issued the "Notice on Publishing the List of Chemical Parks in Liaoning Province (First Batch)", announcing the first batch of 22 chemical parks identified, a total of 3 in Dalian City, of which the Dalian Songmudao Chemical Industry Development Zone was identified as the first batch of provincial chemical parks with the first place in the provincial evaluation.
Dalian Songmudao Chemical Industry Development Zone was founded in 2005, is a national circular economy pilot unit, liaoning coastal economic belt chemical industry professional park, in 2007 was identified as the second batch of national circular economy pilot units, in 2009 into the Liaoning coastal economic belt national strategic key development and support areas.
