Recently, the Economic and Credit Department of a major cement province announced the "List of Cement Clinker Production Lines in the Province in 2022". In the list, a new dry process cement production line with a daily output of 2500t/d is in a state of shutdown. In the remarks column, it is stated that the reason for the shutdown is that there is no self-owned mine and the raw materials are scarce. The list shows that the production line will be completed and put into operation in May 2020.
A cement production line has been completed and put into operation for only three years, that is to say, it has stopped production because of "no self-owned mine and lack of raw materials". For investors, it is undoubtedly a "waste" of investment. The investment project of the new dry-process cement production line with a daily output of 2500t/d
built in the western region is not small in scale. The project should also have undergone a feasibility study. The state investment authorities also have special requirements for the preparation of feasibility study reports for investment projects. The preparation of the feasibility study report of an enterprise investment project is based on relevant national and local supporting plans, industrial policies and industry access conditions, enterprise strategies, standards and norms, special research results, and other bases. The investment project of the new dry-process cement production line with
a daily output of 2500t/d belongs to the category permitted by the Guiding Catalogue for Industrial Structure Adjustment. The industry access conditions are based on the Standard Conditions for Cement Industry (2015 edition) (MIIT Announcement No.5 of 2015).
The Specification Conditions specify that cement construction projects shall comply with the Specification Conditions. The local competent department of industry and information technology shall urge the cement enterprises in the region to implement the conditions of this specification. Point (III) in Part II Production Process and Technical Equipment of
the Specification Conditions clearly requires that the cement clinker project shall have limestone resource guarantee with a design mining life of not less than 30 years. Self-provided mine is the most reliable guarantee for limestone resources in the sense of
guarantee. From the point of view of the reasons for the shutdown of the project, there is no self-owned mine, which also reflects that the project has not been able to achieve the guarantee of limestone resources from other aspects, resulting in the lack of raw materials and forced to stop production.
Cement investment and construction projects are subject to record management. If the project obviously does not meet the requirements of industry norms and conditions, and the information informed by such enterprises at the time of filing is incomplete, the filing organ shall guide the enterprises to make corrections. If the filing authority could ask the enterprise to do the raw material guarantee work in time at that time, it would not have the consequence that the cement project which had been built for only three years had to stop production. In March
this year, the National Development and Reform Commission issued the Notice on Issuing the Compilation Outline and Explanation of the Feasibility Study Report of Investment Projects, which pointed out that the feasibility study is the core link of investment decision-making, and strengthening the feasibility study of investment projects is the inevitable requirement to improve the scientific level of investment decision-making. The outline of the feasibility study report is applicable to the feasibility study of various investment projects in various industries in China, and is an important basis for decision-making of investment projects. Among them, the Reference Outline for the Preparation of Feasibility Study Report of Enterprise Investment Projects is mainly to guide enterprises to attach importance to project feasibility study, strengthen the internal decision-making management of investment projects, promote production and operation in accordance with the law, and achieve healthy and sustainable development on the basis of implementing the autonomy of enterprise investment.
Pay attention to the feasibility study report of cement investment and construction projects, and make good decisions. Focus on whether the project is feasible or not, rather than focusing on how the project can be "passed" for the record!
