Development and Reform Commission Responds to a Press Conference on the Administrative Measures for Comprehensive Utilization of Fly Ash

Recently, 10 departments such as the National Development and Reform Commission issued a newly revised “Fly Ash Comprehensive Utilization Management Regulations” in the form of a joint decree, further defining the concept of comprehensive utilization of fly ash and fly ash, and presenting the requirements for comprehensive management. And encouragement to focus on support and clarify the responsibilities of the relevant management departments. The reporter interviewed the relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission.

Q: Please briefly introduce the relevant situation of comprehensive utilization of fly ash in China.

A: In 1994, the six ministries and commissions including the former State Economic and Trade Commission, the former Ministry of Power, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Transport, and the State Administration of Taxation jointly issued and implemented the Administrative Measures for the Comprehensive Utilization of Fly Ash, and established that adherence to The guiding ideology of the project is to provide support for investment policies and construction funds for fly ash comprehensive utilization projects, and implement preferential tax reduction and support policies. Since the original "Management Measures" was issued, the development of China's comprehensive utilization of fly ash has been greatly promoted under the guidance of national industrial policy guidance and related preferential policies and scientific and technological innovation funds, and the comprehensive utilization rate has increased by 35% in 1994. 68% in 2011.

1. The comprehensive utilization of fly ash has increased steadily. Since the "10th Five-Year Plan" period, China's energy consumption has grown rapidly, coal production has increased year by year, coal-fired power plants have grown by leaps and bounds, and fly ash production has increased dramatically. Comprehensive utilization of fly ash has steadily increased. During the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period, the comprehensive utilization of fly ash remained at around 67% and increased slightly, exceeding the developed countries such as the United States.

2. The use of areas continues to expand. The comprehensive utilization of fly ash in China has experienced three development stages: "relying on storage" - "reserve and use combined" - "utilizing mainly". At present, the main methods for the comprehensive utilization of fly ash include the production of cement, concrete and other building materials products, construction projects, road construction, soil improvement, backfilling, production of bio-compound fertilizers, extraction of materials for high-value utilization, etc., involving building materials, construction, In the fields of metallurgy, chemical engineering, and agriculture, a number of specialized fly ash comprehensive utilization enterprises have emerged.

3. The level of technology continues to increase. At present, fly ash is used as an admixture of concrete and mortar in construction projects; in the building materials industry, new wall materials such as fly ash bricks, wallboards, ceramics, etc. are produced as raw materials; pavement base materials are used in road projects. The technologies and applications in such areas are already very mature. Through the introduction and digestion of foreign advanced production technology and equipment, fly ash production of building materials, technical equipment to reach the international advanced level, an annual output of more than 100 million production lines become the dominant direction of development. High-grade alumina technology for coal ash is included in the "National 11th Five-Year Plan for Science and Technology Support Program", and high-ranking demonstration projects for the industrialization of alumina extracted from coal ash have made positive progress; the use of fly ash to extract microbeads to produce refractory materials And insulation materials also form a certain scale.

Q: Please briefly introduce the revised background of the "Administrative Measures."

A: This revision mainly focuses on the following four factors.

The first is the rapid increase in fly ash production. In recent years, China's thermal power generation has developed rapidly, and fly ash production has increased year by year. The annual production of non-fly ash during the Tenth Five-Year Plan has reached 802 million tons, and the annual production of fly ash at the end of the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” reached 480 million tons. It is predicted that the amount of fly ash produced at the end of the “Twelfth Five-year Plan” will reach 570 million tons, and the situation facing comprehensive utilization is very severe.

Second, regional imbalances and the expansion of the use of areas require macroeconomic policy guidance. The overall problem of unbalanced development of comprehensive utilization of fly ash in China's regions is still prominent. The areas where coal resources and thermal power plants are concentrated are limited by factors such as regional and product market corrections and technical conditions. Comprehensive utilization of fly ash and The scale is relatively low. The problem of land occupation and environmental pollution in some areas is more prominent. Comprehensive utilization of fly ash needs to continue to be consolidated and further promoted. The comprehensive utilization level of coastal economically developed areas and central cities is high. Fly ash is becoming a “resource” more and more attention by the society. The enthusiasm of local governments and waste recycling companies is very high. In some places, even fly ash is in short supply. The situation. In addition, high-tech high-tech coal ash extraction and other high-tech technologies have also been successfully developed and put into production, which puts forward further requirements for the rational and efficient use of fly ash resources.

Third, the original "Administrative Measures" is difficult to adapt to the new development environment. With the improvement of relevant legal systems for comprehensive utilization of resources, the "Cleaner Production Promotion Law" and the "Law on Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution Caused by Solid Wastes" have been issued in succession, and in particular, the "Circular Economy Promotion Law" has been promulgated and implemented, raising the need for comprehensive utilization of resources. The requirements, and many of the original "Management Measures" have a certain gap. After the issuance of the "Law of Administrative Licensing," the laws and regulations have further strengthened standard management and put forward new requirements. In addition, the original "Management Measures" for the relevant preferential policies and financial support methods, etc., since the "State Council approved the transfer of the State Economic and Trade Commission and other departments on the further implementation of the comprehensive utilization of resources notice" was issued after several adjustments.

Fourth, the comprehensive utilization of fly ash management departments have been adjusted. Since the promulgation of the "Administrative Measures," the state management system has undergone two institutional reforms. The six departments jointly issued by the Central State Economic and Trade Commission and the Ministry of Power Industry have withdrawn and the power system reform has established five major power companies. The local authorities are not clear, resulting in grading. The management can not be implemented, resulting in the weakening of the management effectiveness of the comprehensive utilization of fly ash, the need to further clarify the main body of fly ash comprehensive utilization management, rationalizing the responsibilities of the relevant departments in the comprehensive utilization of fly ash management, forming a complete and effective Management system.

The areas where coal resources and thermal power plants are concentrated are subject to restrictions imposed by factors such as regional and product market technology, and comprehensive utilization of fly ash. The scale is relatively low. The problem of land occupation and environmental pollution in some areas is more prominent. Comprehensive utilization of fly ash needs to continue to be consolidated and further promoted. The comprehensive utilization level of coastal economically developed areas and central cities is high. Fly ash is becoming a “resource” more and more attention by the society. The enthusiasm of local governments and waste-disposal enterprises is very high.
