Dr. Shen Weiguo of Wuhan University of Technology proposed six emission reduction strategies for the cement industry: controlling the scale of infrastructure construction, reducing the amount of concrete and cement, reducing the amount of clinker, producing low-carbon clinker and developing low-carbon cement. In particular, he recommends "steel slag phase separation clinker" as an effective emission reduction option, and is expected to discuss these methods in depth at the "2024 China Cement Double Carbon Conference".
2、 Cement Net Exclusive: Three Grasps of Anti-involution in Cement Industry
The cement industry will face severe challenges in 2024. The "Yangtze River Basin Cement Anti-involution Forum" put forward three major proposals: first, rationally understand the market, advocate fair competition and win-win cooperation; second, adjust the balance of production and sales, avoid price war and share competition; third, implement the production mechanism according to demand, and implement off-peak production to reduce ineffective supply. These measures aim to guide the cement industry to a healthy, orderly and sustainable development path.
3、 Local support for cement industry integration! Many companies have expressed their views..
The governments of Guizhou Province and other places encourage the cement industry to integrate production capacity through mergers and reorganizations, resolve excess problems, improve industry concentration, and solve the problems left over by the history of clinker enterprises. The goal is to achieve phased results by 2027. Local governments have introduced implementation plans to support the integration of resources of leading enterprises and optimize the industrial layout. Enterprises such as Conch Cement, Jidong Cement and Shangfeng Cement responded positively to promote mergers and acquisitions and market layout optimization to enhance competitiveness. Merger and reorganization is regarded as the key to the transformation and upgrading of the industry and the realization of high-quality development.
4、 Cement Net News: Notice of Cement Price Rise in Eastern Hubei
Recently, the cost of cement production in eastern Hubei has risen. Affected by the continuous rise in raw material prices, local enterprises announced that they would raise the price of cement by 30 yuan/ton from the 27th. However, due to the weak overall demand, the actual effect of price adjustment needs further observation.
5、 Conch 3 million tons grinding project put into operation
On September 27, the website of the People's Government of Tinghu District of Yancheng City announced that the new green building materials project of Baling Conch was put into operation. The project is a symbol of regional green development, using a new double closed-circuit grinding system, with an annual output of 3 million tons of low energy consumption cement. Relying on the technology of Conch Group, reduce energy consumption and emissions, and improve efficiency. In the future, the project will introduce digital technologies such as full-process intelligent manufacturing to promote the upgrading of industrial intelligence.
6、 Cement Net Exclusive: One Kiln Publicizes Three Kiln Paths!
The production capacity of a cement production line with a daily output of 4000 tons in a southwest province was transferred to a new dry cement production line with a daily output of 4500 tons in a northwest province (region). In the process of capacity replacement, the specifications of the cement kilns of the production line were inconsistent in the announcements of different years, which were Ф4.8 × 74m, Ф5.0 × 74m, Ф5.2 × 74m, and the kiln diameter should be Ф4.7 m according to the capacity conversion, resulting in four different specifications of the same cement kiln. This specification change reflects the non-standard, authenticity and compliance of the capacity replacement scheme.
7、 Capacity transfer of a 4000t/d clinker production line in Guizhou
Guizhou Duyun Haolong Cement Co., Ltd. plans to sell 3333 tons/day of its 4000 tons/day clinker production line to Ningxia Haolong Building Materials. Ningxia Haolong Building Materials will use this capacity to replace its existing production capacity of 1500 tons per day, according to the ratio of 2.222: 1. The aim is to supplement the capacity of the existing 4500 tons/day clinker production line of Ningxia Haolong Building Materials to reach the 6000 tons/day capacity designed for the proposed project.
