According to incomplete statistics, nearly 100 opinions on the identity dispute of biomass-forming fuels have been sent to the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the National Energy Administration and Other relevant leaders, and the final version of the Catalogue of Highly Polluting Fuels is expected to be in the near future. Officially released.
On February 4th, the Ministry of Environmental Protection officially closed the consultation on the “Highly Polluted Fuel Catalogue (Second Consultation Draft)â€. In the second consultation draft, biomass solid fuels that do not use specialized boilers are classified as Class I (general control) and Class II (more stringently controlled) regulated fuels, depending on the degree of control rigor, while in the most stringent III Among the classified fuels, biomass solid fuels are not classified in any specific classification, and whether they are treated by professional equipment or not, they will be treated as “highly pollutedâ€.
When the opinion draft came out, the industry was in turmoil. Does bio-formed fuel widely used in European and American countries that attach great importance to environmental protection contribute to the development of environmental protection? How to define the scope of highly polluting fuel? Once the draft is implemented, what impact will it bring to the biomass molding fuel industry? These issues are enough to worry industry experts and participating companies.
Identity definition
Recalling the first draft of the high-pollution combustion catalogue in October last year, only the unformed agroforestry solid biomass fuel was classified as highly polluting fuel, and clearly stated that “processed agroforestry solid biomass fuel is not a highly polluting fuel†. In fact, as early as April 2001, the former State Environmental Protection Administration (the predecessor of the Ministry of Environmental Protection) issued the "Regulations on the Division of Highly Polluting Fuels", directly burning biomass fuels, including trees, straw, sawdust, rice husks, Bagasse and the like have been classified as highly polluting fuels, but the problem of defining fuels has been blurred.
In August 2014, Beijing issued a notice on the “Delineation of High-polluting Fuel-Fired Zones in Beijing (Trial)â€, which will use various combustible wastes and directly burned biomass fuels, as well as biogasification. Other processed biofuels are classified as highly polluting fuels. Is biomass forming fuel really a highly polluting fuel? In reply to the confusion raised by Inner Mongolia Jitai New Energy Company, the Ministry of Environmental Protection pointed out that biomass forming fuels have low sulfur content and low ash, and the main pollutant after combustion is soot. The biomass boiler equipped with an efficient bag filter can meet the emission standards of the Boiler Air Pollutant Emission Standard during normal operation and is a renewable energy source.
The biomass forming fuel is mainly made of agricultural and forestry residues, and is processed into a green fuel by slicing, pulverizing, and removing impurities. "As a boiler fuel, it has a long burning time, is economical, and has no pollution to the environment. It is a high-quality environmentally friendly fuel that replaces conventional fossil energy." Academician Shi Yuanchun, a member of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the Chinese Agricultural University, has always believed that "the future biomass molding fuel will Have a good development prospects." However, the reason for the current slow development of the industry is mainly determined by whether it defines the identity of clean fuel.
Shi Yuanchun and the academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, Tsinghua University professor Ni Weidou, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, Lanzhou University professor Ren Jizhou, on February 3, jointly called for the clean energy status of biomass molding fuel.
It is believed that the biomass forming fuel is not clean, mainly to confuse the molding fuel with the open burning of biomass, or to confuse it with coal. The academician’s joint signature proposal mentioned that Guoneng Xinneng [2014] No. 295 “Notice on the Construction of Biomass Forming Fuel Boiler Heating Demonstration Project†clarifies the soot, SO2 and NOx emissions of biomass-formed fuel boilers. The concentration standards are 30mg/m3 (mg/m3), 50mg/m3, 200mg/m3, which is very close to 20mg/m3, 50mg/m3 and 200mg/m3 of natural gas boilers; far lower than 50mg/m3 of coal-fired boilers. , 300mg/m3, 300mg/m3 (new construction) and 80mg/m3, 400mg/m3, 400mg/m3 (in operation engineering).
A large number of engineering examples show that biomass-formed fuel boilers are more clean than natural gas and cost much less than natural gas. Experts unanimously agreed that the Ministry of Environmental Protection's "Boiler Air Pollutant Emission Standard (GB13271-2014)" will implement the biomass-formed fuel boiler emissions in accordance with the standards of coal-fired boilers, resulting in a local environmental protection system that has a wide range of misunderstandings and Recognition has hindered the development of the molding fuel heating industry.
Industry impact
At present, the promotion and application of biomass energy products in China has been extended to many fields such as civil, commercial, industrial, etc. More and more companies specializing in the development of biomass energy products. It is understood that in some coal-burning areas, biomass boilers have been widely used in garment processing, chemical, food and other industries, as well as in rural farming and planting industries. Some districts have centralized heating, factory heating and gas supply to achieve contract energy management, and biomass-forming fuel to replace coal.
Some industry insiders pointed out that after nearly ten years of development, biomass molding fuels have already had great advantages in the field of heating. In the absence of any subsidies from the state, the molding fuel has been tested by the market, and the overall benefits are on an upward trajectory. In the north of China, an important reason for the formation of haze in recent years is straw burning, which is an important way to utilize straw.
The person in charge of a renewable resource utilization company in Zhangzhou told reporters that if Hebei Province produces 45% of the straw produced in the province to produce molding fuel, it can completely replace 14 million tons of standard coal, satisfying the province's annual cooking and heating total. More than 60% of energy consumption can basically meet heating needs. If the development of this industry is hindered, it will directly affect the resource utilization of straw and other agricultural and forestry waste.
From “renewable energy†to “highly polluting fuelâ€, the negative impact on the corresponding companies will bear the brunt. The person in charge of the company mentioned above said, "If this round of solicitation is true, local governments will have a huge impact on the industry even if they have different implementation standards."
Wang Weiquan, deputy secretary-general of the Recycling Energy Professional Committee of the China Association of Circular Economy, said that although the second round of the Exposure Draft stipulates that the urban people's government can delineate the high-polluting fuel-free zone according to the actual air quality status and improvement goals, The list of regulated fuels was chosen, but it was also clearly stated that “encourage the selection of the most stringent Class IIIâ€.
“On the one hand, the Ministry of Environmental Protection has delegated discretion to local governments, but on the other hand, it has also stated that fuels are highly polluted. This is likely to lead to negative attitudes in some areas that do not support or oppose the use of shaped fuels. It is not good for the healthy development of the entire industry." Wang Weiquan said.
Can't be ruined
Academician Shi Yuanchun and other academicians pointed out in the "Proposal on Defining Biomass Forming Fuels as Clean and Renewable Energy" that biomass-forming fuels are cheap clean energy and low-carbon fuels; developing biomass-forming fuel industry is also conducive to crop straws. Resources such as forestry “three remnants†will reduce the open burning of agricultural and forestry organic waste and reduce the source of atmospheric pollution.
Shi Yuanchun told reporters that biomass energy has become the world's fourth largest energy after coal, oil and natural gas, ranking first in the world for renewable energy; biomass-forming fuel is an internationally recognized clean, low-carbon fuel. It is an alternative fuel for small and medium-sized coal-fired boilers and is widely used in many countries around the world, especially in Europe, where environmental protection standards are the most stringent. If China is misunderstood as a highly polluting fuel due to unclear knowledge, it will be an anachronism. If the case of unreasonable individual engineering design and inadequate control, the fuel is defined as highly polluting fuel. Because of swearing.
For the above reasons, the experts suggest that the Ministry of Environmental Protection should be urged: First, the expressions of “biomass solid forming fuelâ€, “solid molding fuel†or “biomass forming fuel†will be deleted from the “Highly Polluting Fuel Catalogue†and the text will be clearly defined. The material forming fuel is clean renewable energy; the second is to amend the "Boiler Air Pollutant Emission Standard", and the biomass forming fuel boiler discharge is carried out in accordance with the natural gas boiler discharge standard. In this way, by clarifying identity and raising emission standards, the essential characteristics of green, low-carbon, clean and environmentally friendly biomass fuels are reflected, which is more conducive to the identification and strengthening of supervision by the environmental protection sector, promotes the development of biomass molding fuel industry, and manages the atmosphere for China. Pollution and greenhouse gas reductions make a greater contribution.
According to incomplete statistics, nearly 100 opinions on the identity dispute of biomass-forming fuels in the country were fed back to the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the National Energy Administration and other relevant authorities and relevant national leaders. The final version of the Catalogue of Highly Contaminated Fuels is expected to be officially released in the near future, and the progress of catalog revision and release is receiving high attention from the industry.
