Sasol Ltd.’s planned coal-to-liquids project with China Shenhua Group Corp., set to become the nation’s biggest such facility, received approval from the Chinese environmental ministry, according to a list on the ministry’s website today.

Johannesburg-based Sasol halted development of the $10 billion plant because it was awaiting state approval, the company said in an e-mailed statement in February. The project requires final approval from the National Development and Reform Commission, China’s highest economic planning body.
