Project Background

For a long time, influenced by traditional perceptions and information barriers, the public has held a somewhat one-sided view of the petrochemical industry. Petrochemical enterprises are often perceived as highly polluting, carrying significant safety risks, and operating in a non-standardized manner. As a result, the public has limited awareness of the industry's efforts in green production, environmental protection, and safety management, and there remains room to enhance public recognition and social reputation.

Petrochemical production is characterized by its closed and highly specialized nature.Key aspects of enterprise operations,including daily production activities, green technology upgrades, energy conservation and emission reduction initiatives, and safety protection measures, are largely invisible to the public. In addition, existing science communication channels are often limited and lack sufficient interaction, leaving the public without direct and authentic opportunities to understand the modern, environmentally friendly, and safe production practices adopted by petrochemical enterprises.

Leveraging the company's ongoing Public Open Day initiative, we aim to break down information barriers between government and enterprises, as well as between enterprises and the public. Through this platform, the company showcases its green production processes, environmental governance achievements, safety management systems, and corporate social responsibility practices in a comprehensive manner. By providing the public with first-hand access to and a closer understanding of modern petrochemical operations, the initiative helps eliminate long-standing misconceptions, strengthen connections between the enterprise and the community, and establish a corporate image that is safe, green, transparent, and socially responsible.（AI翻译）

项目背景

长期以来，受传统固有认知及信息壁垒影响，大众对石油化工行业存在片面认知，普遍认为石化企业存在污染大、安全风险高、生产不规范等问题，对企业绿色生产、环保治理、安全管控工作缺乏了解，企业公众认可度与社会口碑有待提升。

石化生产具备封闭性、专业性特征，企业日常生产运营、绿色技改、节能减排、安全防护等核心工作处于公众视野之外，对外科普宣传渠道单一、互动性不足，公众缺少直观、真实的渠道了解企业现代化、绿色化、安全化的生产模式。

依托企业公众开放常态化项目，打破政企、企民信息壁垒，向社会全方位展示公司绿色生产工艺、环保治理成果、安全生产体系及社会责任实践。让公众近距离、真实了解现代化石化企业风貌，消解大众刻板偏见，拉近企业与民众距离，树立安全、绿色、透明、负责任的石化企业形象。

Project Implementation

To address the public's limited understanding of petrochemical industry planning, production value, and green development strategies, the General Administration Department spearheaded an immersive science communication enhancement initiative. Leveraging the company's panoramic industrial model and physical product exhibition displays, the initiative systematically introduces community members, students, teachers, and families to the overall plant layout, industrial development scale, key product applications, and the industry's role in energy security. Through intuitive and real-world demonstrations, the program helps eliminate unfamiliarity with and misconceptions about modern petrochemical operations.

To bridge knowledge gaps regarding the company's development history, green transformation philosophy, and interactive engagement opportunities, the Corporate Culture Task Force comprehensively upgraded the exhibition hall experience. The cultural corridor was enriched with documentary photographs and illustrated materials that showcase the company's more than three decades of development, achievements in government-enterprise collaboration, and long-term sustainability vision. In addition, interactive environmental protection quizzes were introduced to create a more engaging educational experience, significantly enhancing public participation and knowledge acquisition.

Recognizing public concerns regarding chemical manufacturing safety, pollution control, hazardous waste management, and environmental protection, the Safety, Health, Environment (HSE) Department and the Production & Quality Department jointly launched a plant transparency program. The company's intelligent central control room and standardized hazardous waste storage facilities are regularly opened to visitors. Through real-time monitoring displays, visitors can observe automated production processes, online emissions monitoring systems, and specialized safety control practices. Combined with onsite HSE briefings and process science education, these initiatives comprehensively demonstrate the company's achievements in green technology upgrades, cleaner production, low-carbon circular development, and zero-waste factory construction, transforming traditionally closed production facilities into transparent environmental education classrooms.

To challenge the stereotype that traditional chemical plants are environmentally unfriendly and technologically outdated, the Production & Quality Department and Support Services Department jointly opened the intelligent automated warehouse and landscaped greenbelt areas to the public. Visitors can observe advanced operations such as unmanned warehousing, intelligent order fulfillment, and automated truck loading, demonstrating the efficiency, energy-saving capabilities, and operational excellence of modern manufacturing. Meanwhile, the company's garden-style industrial park, characterized by the concept of "a factory within a forest and scenery within the factory," vividly showcases the harmonious coexistence of industrial production and ecological conservation.

To overcome the limitations of previous outreach efforts, which were often sporadic, informal, and lacking standardized management, the company established a long-term, cross-functional public engagement mechanism. The Public Relations and Communications Department coordinates visitor reception and external communications; the SHE Department oversees environmental management and safety awareness; the Production & Quality Department provides technical presentations and equipment demonstrations; and the Corporate Culture Task Force maintains exhibition facilities and designs interactive experiences. With clearly defined responsibilities, standardized visitor routes, consistent presentation guidelines, robust safety management protocols, and structured event procedures, the company regularly organizes themed activities such as World Environment Day open-house events, public observation tours, and family-oriented environmental education programs. Through proactive environmental information disclosure and active engagement with public oversight, the company has established a standardized, professional, and sustainable public outreach framework that fosters transparency, trust, and community engagement.
