DAQI Technology Named Among the Drafting Organizations of GB/T 47585-2026
According to China’s National Public Service Platform for Standards, Chengdu Daqi Technology Joint Stock Co., Ltd. is officially listed among the principal drafting organizations of GB/T 47585-2026. Huang Kunming is also included in the list of principal drafters.
The drafting group brings together fuel technology organizations, automotive companies, energy and chemical enterprises, testing institutions and industry bodies. The standard is administered and implemented through TC414, China’s National Technical Committee on Alcohol and Ether Fuels.
For DAQI Technology, whose core activities include bamboo-based activated carbon, modified carbon materials, catalytic materials and industrial purification technologies, participation in a national standard covering automotive methanol fuel applications reflects a broader involvement in environmental, materials and low-carbon technology standardization.
What Does GB/T 47585-2026 Cover?
GB/T 47585-2026 is not simply a fuel composition specification. Based on the official standard project information, it addresses the broader application and management framework for companies engaged in the production and distribution of methanol fuel for vehicles.
The scope includes requirements and guidance related to company qualifications, equipment and facilities, personnel, project development procedures, product quality control, standardized management systems and service provision.
In practical terms, the standard is intended to support more consistent management across the automotive methanol fuel supply chain and provide a common reference for companies developing, operating or managing related projects in China.
Latest Development: Amendment No. 1 Is Under Public Consultation
Shortly after GB/T 47585-2026 entered into force, the National Public Service Platform for Standards published a separate national standard project for Amendment No. 1 to the Specification on the Application of Methanol Fuel for Vehicles.
The project is currently marked as “under public consultation” and has a 12-month project cycle. It remains under TC414 and the Standardization Administration of China. The official project page also provides the consultation draft and its explanatory document.
The amendment process indicates that China’s framework for automotive methanol fuel applications is continuing to evolve as implementation experience and industry requirements develop.
Building Standardization Capability Beyond a Single Product Category
DAQI Technology has continued to participate in standardization work related to activated carbon, carbon-based environmental materials and broader industrial applications.
- GB/T 48061-2026 — Bamboo Activated Carbon: Chengdu Daqi Technology Joint Stock Co., Ltd. is listed among the principal drafting organizations.
- GB/T 47594-2026 — Carbon-Based Catalytic Desulfurization Method for Sulfur-Containing Waste Gas: another national standard related to carbon-based environmental technology in which DAQI has participated.
- GB/T 47585-2026 — Specification on the Application of Methanol Fuel for Vehicles: DAQI Technology is listed among the principal drafting organizations, with Huang Kunming named among the principal drafters.
These standards cover different industries and technical subjects. Taken together, they illustrate how DAQI is extending its technical work from material development and industrial applications into formal standardization activities.
