(Summary description)Since 2016, the steel as the pinnacle of metallurgical industry, resolutely implement the central committee of the State Council on promoting dissolve excess steel production capacity decision deployment, accumulative total dissolve crude steel production
Metallurgical products are important basic raw materials in the development of China's national economy. Metallurgical industry has the characteristics of large investment driving effect, strong employability and high industrial correlation, which has made important contribution to the economic and social development of Our country. The 19th National Congress of the CPC pointed out that socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, and the principal contradiction in Chinese society has turned into one between unbalanced and inadequate development and the people's ever-growing needs for a better life. China's economy has changed from the stage of rapid growth to the stage of high-quality development, and is in the key period of transformation of development mode, optimization of economic structure and transformation of growth momentum. The economic situation and development environment of metallurgical industry are undergoing major changes. Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission has revised and released a new version of the Guidance Catalogue for Industrial Restructuring (2019 edition) (hereinafter referred to as the Catalogue), which will help guide the metallurgical industry to plan transformation and upgrading at a new historical position and speed up the industry's progress towards high-quality development.
1. It is conducive to deepening the supply-side structural reform in the metallurgical industry
Since 2016, the steel as the pinnacle of metallurgical industry, resolutely implement the central committee of the State Council on promoting dissolve excess steel production capacity decision deployment, accumulative total dissolve crude steel production capacity of 150 million tons, two years ahead of schedule to complete the "state council on the iron and steel industry to resolve the excess capacity to achieve out of the opinions of the development of" (guo fa (2016) no. 6) determine "in five years to reduce crude steel production capacity of 100 million - 150 million tons of" the upper limit of target tasks, to clamp down on "DeTiaoGang" comprehensive production capacity of 100 million tons, effectively purify the market environment. The overall operation of the iron and steel industry has been stable, and its operating efficiency has been significantly improved, laying a solid foundation for industrial transformation and upgrading and high-quality development. With iron and steel industry operating conditions improve, the steel production capacity violation behavior, especially since "DeTiaoGang" simple production technology, strong concealment, parts of the wind "DeTiaoGang" events in the history of the new, fully reflects the "DeTiaoGang" to prevent the resurgence, consolidate the dissolve excess capacity results task is still arduous. This revision, clamp down on "DeTiaoGang" relevant work in recent years, on the basis of the "directory" in the "elimination" backward production craft, equipment and backward product to (work) in the (work) in furnace equipment, the use of frequency furnace production "DeTiaoGang" are made further clear, more operational policy measures, for different countries and regions to guard against "DeTiaoGang" sound the resurgence and reinforcing steel and policy measures to solve the excess capacity results and long-term mechanism provides a strong basis.
In recent years, the non-ferrous metal industry has deepened supply-side structural reform, carried out special actions to clean up and rectify illegal projects in the electrolytic aluminum industry, significantly improved the order of investment and construction in the electrolytic aluminum industry, and initially formed a standardized and orderly market environment. In this revision, the catalogue adjusted the elimination standard of electrolytic aluminum pre-baking cells to 160kA in backward production process equipment and backward products of "elimination category", which provided policy support for further consolidating the achievements of the special action of cleaning and consolidation.
Secondly, it is conducive to the innovation-driven development of metallurgical industry
Innovation is the first power and core to lead the development of metallurgical industry. China's steel and non-ferrous metal industry has experienced from introduction, digestion and absorption to independent integration and innovation, and basically realized the localization of main production process equipment; Scientific and technological innovation has yielded fruitful results. To a large extent, it has solved some technical bottlenecks restricting the development of the industry, making the overall level of the industry step up to a new level. Research and production of a large number of steel, non-ferrous metal products, for the construction of major national projects and key projects play an important supporting role. At the same time, some advanced technology has also been highly valued and successfully applied by production enterprises. However, there are still many problems and gaps in the technological progress of steel and non-ferrous metal industries. For example, there is insufficient impetus for scientific and technological innovation-driven development, some cutting-edge core technologies and key technologies are missing, some high-end products cannot break through technical bottlenecks, and product quality stability still needs to be improved. This revision, in view of the metallurgical industry transformation and upgrading of demand, "directory" in the "encouraged" to integrate some of the high performance steel varieties, the whole process quality control, frontier forward-looking technology, and nonferrous metal new material development important direction, will promote the metallurgical industry focus on key product form a complete set of production and application of the core technology, improve and improve product quality stability, reliability, durability and consistency, improve the effective supply of products, promote the metallurgical industry as soon as possible breakthrough of a batch of key generic technology with independent intellectual property rights, enhancing core competitiveness of metallurgical industry in our country as a whole.
Third, it is conducive to the realization of low-carbon and green development of metallurgical industry
Low-carbon and green development is an important part of the transformation and upgrading strategy of China's metallurgical industry. Iron and steel, non-ferrous metals industry energy conservation and environmental protection is applied by the backward, the promotion of new technology and new facilities, constantly enhance the level of energy conservation, environmental protection and ensure the continuous improvement of energy saving emission reduction targets, enterprise's environmental performance level improved significantly, a large garden and clean production environment friendly factories have sprung up, promote the integration of enterprise and urban development, to build beautiful made positive contributions to the harmonious society in China.
Steel, in April, the ecological environment and other five ministries jointly issued the "about promoting the implementation of the steel industry's opinions on ultra-low emissions (ring of atmosphere [2019] no. 35), not only after the end of ultra-low emissions targets put forward clear requirements, and strengthen the whole process, the whole system, the whole industry chain of pollution control requirements, some of the requirements on behalf of the ecological environment protection in today's global steel industry the most strict emissions targets. This is a crucial stage for steel and iron enterprises to implement ultra-low emissions transformation and solve prominent ecological and environmental problems. It is also a favorable opportunity. In this revision, the Catalogue has added ultra-low emission technologies to the "encouraged" category, and will guide steel enterprises to develop and apply advanced energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies as soon as possible to meet the requirements of ultra-low emissions. In addition, the "directory" in the "restricted" adjustment of related smelting equipment of environmental protection, energy consumption, safety standards, in the "elimination" clearly improve the standard of environmental sensitive area behind equipment, these requirements will be reversed transmission for the iron and steel industry structure optimization and upgrading of backward production capacity speed, to promote the iron and steel industry to further improve energy conservation and emissions reduction.
In terms of non-ferrous metals, in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Minamata Convention on Mercury, "new and expanded primary mercury mining projects" were added to the "restricted" category, and "primary mercury mining projects (August 16, 2032)" were added to the "eliminated" category, thus promoting the healthy and green development of the non-ferrous metal industry.
