At the beginning of 2008, the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Association and related professional associations sponsored by it began to be busy.
"The National Development and Reform Commission has formulated the Implementation Plan for Energy Efficiency Targeting Activities for Key Energy-consuming Enterprises. According to the requirements of the National Development and Reform Commission, the Association is organizing key energy-consuming industries to carry out energy efficiency benchmarking activities." Li Yongwu, President of China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Association He said when interviewed by China Industry News.
This year is the third year of the “Eleventh Five-Year Planâ€, and it is also a key middle-year year. The petrochemical industry officially meets the “CSC Year†for energy saving and emission reduction.
The energy saving situation is still severe
According to the latest statistical data released by the Petrochemical Association, in the first three quarters of 2007, the overall energy consumption per unit of added value in the petroleum and chemical industries of the country continued to decline; the comprehensive energy consumption per unit product of the six key energy-consuming industries has varying degrees of decline. The energy consumption of the crude oil processing industry was 77.2kg per ton, down 1.9% year-on-year; the unit energy consumption per unit of ethylene was 1158.2kg per ton, down 2.9% year-on-year; the unit energy consumption of ammonia dropped to 1456.7kg per ton, down by 1.8 compared to the same period last year. %; caustic soda unit energy consumption per ton 537.9 kg of standard coal, a year-on-year decrease of 3.6%; soda unit energy consumption fell to 380 kg of standard coal per ton, a decrease of 4.2% compared to 2005; calcium carbide unit energy consumption per ton of 1124.1 kg of coal, year-on-year Decline 1.9%.
However, Li Yongwu believes that the energy-saving effect of the industry is still not optimistic. “Currently, the effect of energy-saving work is far from the requirements of the 11th Five-Year Plan. The task of completing the energy-saving target specified in the plan is still very heavy. On the one hand, it is due to the excessive energy consumption base of the whole industry, and on the other hand, the high growth rate of the industries with high energy consumption in the industry has led to a decline in the energy-saving effect of the industry.
He introduced that in recent years, a number of coal chemical projects have been planned in all regions, especially in the central and western regions. The traditional high-energy-consuming industries such as calcium carbide, caustic soda, soda ash, and nitrogen fertilizer have grown unabated. Coal-to-oil, coal-to-methanol , DME, methanol to olefins and other modern coal chemical industry to form an upsurge, further increase the total energy consumption and increase the pressure of energy-saving work.
"If the growth rate of such high-energy-consuming industries is higher than the average level of the industry, if it cannot be reversed, not only will the overall goal of energy conservation in the '11th Five-Year Plan' be difficult to achieve, but the development of the industry will also be difficult to sustain." Li Yongwu said.
"Two high" products grow faster
Li Yongwu said that there are still some outstanding problems in the current energy-saving and emission reduction work in the industry.
High energy consumption and high pollution products have grown too fast. In recent years, due to the large market demand and good economic returns, the industry has witnessed an expansion of production capacity. Investment growth in nitrogen fertilizers, soda ash, caustic soda, calcium carbide, and yellow phosphorus all increased at a rate of about 30%, resulting in overcapacity in these industries. For example, the production capacity of yellow phosphorus has exceeded 2 million tons and the operating rate is less than 40%; the production capacity of calcium carbide has exceeded 20 million tons and the operating rate is only 70%.
The basic work of energy conservation and emission reduction lags behind. At present, the industry's energy consumption statistics standards are still not perfect. Some were formulated more than 10 years ago and are no longer able to meet the needs of the current industry; some have no standards at all and need to be studied and formulated immediately. The formulation or revision of energy-saving design specifications and energy efficiency standards for high-energy-consuming products also lags behind or is lacking, and it is difficult to form strong support for the current energy efficiency control of new industrial capacity. The existing statistical data is difficult to truly reflect the actual situation of the industry. There is still a lot of work to be done to establish and improve the statistical system, standard system and supervision system for energy conservation and emission reduction.
The development and promotion of energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies are insufficient. Promoting energy conservation and emission reduction needs technical support. In recent years, companies have invested more in expanding their scale, and insufficient investment in technology development for energy conservation and emission reduction. Even though some companies have developed good energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies, some are not willing to share in the industry because of their own interests. Therefore, how to speed up the development of energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies, and optimize and integrate the industry's energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies, is an issue that the industry urgently needs to solve. In addition, efforts to promote mature technologies for energy-saving emission reduction and the establishment of special support have also appeared to be insufficient.
Urgent need to establish backward production capacity exit mechanism
In response to the current policy environment facing the petrochemical industry for energy conservation and emission reduction, Li Yongwu proposed three policy recommendations:
Strict market access system, strengthen the guidance of industrial policy. During the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan†period, due to the economic development of the industry and the need to upgrade existing backward production facilities, new production capacity will expand in different ranges; establishing a market access system will help control the scale of new production capacity in the oil and chemical industry. The implementation of strict energy efficiency standards is an effective way to promote technological advancement in the industry, and is also an important guarantee for the industry to achieve energy conservation and emission reduction targets. However, at present, only a few industries such as ethylene, petroleum refining, calcium carbide, and chlor-alkali have established market access systems, and most market access systems for high energy-consuming and highly polluting products have not yet been established. Therefore, it is necessary to establish an industrial market access system as soon as possible and strengthen policy guidance on industrial development.
It is recommended that the state formulate an exit policy for backward production capacity and establish an exit mechanism for backward production capacity. At present, the industries such as calcium carbide and yellow phosphorus have developed too fast and the production capacity is too large. Some enterprises have high energy consumption, serious pollution, and low comprehensive utilization. They should be eliminated in accordance with industrial policies, but due to lack of exit mechanisms, local closure of this part Businesses are quite difficult. Adjusting the structure and eliminating outdated production capacity are important means to realize the goal of energy conservation and emission reduction in the industry. However, the elimination of outdated production capacity involves various factors such as local economic and social employment, and the country has no corresponding exit mechanism, which is very difficult. Therefore, it is recommended that the country issue an exit policy for backward production capacity as soon as possible.
Increase the focus of practical energy-saving emission reduction technology promotion. For some technologies that play a key role in promoting energy conservation and consumption reduction in the industry, although some exemplary industrial application results have been achieved in the country, the promotion efforts are still insufficient, and more efforts are needed in application and promotion.
