The metallurgical industry planning and research institute recently released the "China iron and steel industry energy saving and low-carbon development report 2018" (hereinafter referred to as the "report"), it is estimated that in 2018, the iron and steel industry in the output growth of 11.0%, the total energy consumption growth of 8.9% year on year;In 2019, total energy consumption will fall 3.4 percent year on year. Among them, the crude steel output in 2018 is 923 million tons, with a year-on-year growth rate of 11%. It is predicted that the annual output in 2019 will be reduced to 900 million tons, with a year-on-year growth rate of 2.4%.Pig iron production will reach 763 million tons in 2018, with a year-on-year growth rate of 1.6%, and 7.26% in 2019, with a year-on-year decline of 2.5%. The report shows that scrap steel resources tend to be abundant.It is estimated that China's steel stock will reach 10 billion tons by 2020.By 2025, China's steel reserves will reach 12 billion tons.China's annual output of scrap steel resources will reach 210 million tons by 2020.By 2025, it will reach 270 million to 300 million tons, which will provide sufficient raw materials for the development of electric furnace steel. Li xinchuang, President of the metallurgical industry planning and research institute, said: "total energy consumption has become an important factor in the development of steel and iron.And the capacity index of steel enterprises can be transferred across provinces, but at present, it is difficult to transfer the total energy consumption across provinces, there is no precedent. According to the report, the steel industry will gradually become the main force in the carbon market.In December 2017, the national carbon market was launched, which was divided into three stages: infrastructure construction stage, simulated operation stage and deepening and improving stage. It also took electric power as the breakthrough point to take the lead in trading, and gradually expanded its coverage in accordance with the principle of "mature one industry into one industry". "All steel enterprises should attach great importance to strengthening basic capacity building for low-carbon development and actively plan low-carbon transformation and development," li said. According to the production process by country in 2017, the proportion of electric furnace steel in Europe, the United States, India and other countries accounts for about 60%, other Asian countries account for between 20% and 30%, only China accounts for about 9%.The proportion of electric furnace steel in China is significantly lower than that in Europe, America, Japan, South Korea and other traditional iron and steel powerhouses. Compared with the average tonnage comprehensive energy consumption index of steel in China and the average tonnage comprehensive energy consumption index of steel in foreign countries, there is a huge gap in the structural energy consumption. Li xinchuang believes that at present, there are five major problems in the energy conservation of China's iron and steel industry.Second, it is difficult and slow to popularize and innovate new energy-saving technologies.Third, the leadership of the enterprise still attaches insufficient importance to energy conservation, and the basic capacity of energy conservation management is weak.Fourth, the single administrative mandatory assessment mechanism for energy conservation and emission reduction is increasingly difficult to adapt to the development of energy conservation;Fifth, the distortion of statistical data of iron and steel enterprises is relatively obvious. Some energy consumption data breaking through theoretical values are appearing. The distortion of data brings difficulties to the statistical, analysis and prediction of energy conservation in the industry. Fang qing, vice chairman of the China energy conservation association, said bluntly: "energy conservation, environmental protection and climate change are common challenges facing mankind. Energy conservation, emission reduction and low-carbon development have become the consensus of all countries. The Chinese government attaches great importance to energy conservation and environmental protection.

The London metal exchange (LME) said Wednesday it has recommended ending the suspension of deliveries of Russian aluminum products when the U.S. government lifts sanctions against the metal. The move comes after the us Treasury said it would lift sanctions against rusal, EN+ and EuroSibEnergo, saying the companies had implemented enough corporate governance changes to distance themselves from Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska.

According to the ministry of industry and information technology website on December 17, up to now, the ministry of industry and information technology has issued two batches of notice on the dynamic adjustment of the list of enterprises in the steel specification, a total of 48 enterprises to cancel the specification notice, 52 enterprises to rectify, change the name of 24 enterprises and 47 enterprises equipment, the total number of steel specification enterprises from 304 to 256. Specification in order to continue to urge the enterprise management, in 2018, the ministry continues to develop steel standard enterprise dynamic adjustment work deployment, the voluntary enterprise application and introspection and place first trial, expert verification link, the ministry of industry and research put forward the enterprise intends to dynamically adjust the list of 2018 steel specification, involved a total of four kinds of situations, specific as follows: to add 12 specifications enterprises, cancellation 11 specification, standard requirements 17 enterprises reorganization, change 27 enterprises equipment and seven names. The proposed new listed in the specification of the enterprise has the following several ways: one is the formal approval and complete the replacement in recent years, newly built capacity of enterprises, the second is complete backward or the original specification enterprise production more than one year after the bankruptcy reorganization to the name, part three is to meet the requirements of relevant national policies electric steel enterprises, four is the national special policies to support the xinjiang region of the original compliance iron and steel enterprises, five is reducing as a regional integration and lead enterprises to buy other code.The ministry of industry and information technology (miit) said that priority should be given to regions that have completed the task of reducing steel production capacity, and that no new standardized enterprises should be added to areas under the total steel production capacity control in Beijing, tianjin and hebei. The 11 enterprises that intend to revoke the regulation this time mainly include the following situations: one is to increase steel production capacity in violation of laws and regulations; the other is to shut down all smelting equipment; the third is to give up the regulation application, bankruptcy liquidation, equity restructuring and other reasons did not pass the local preliminary examination.The ministry of industry and information technology (miit) said that for enterprises that have announced the revocation of the regulations, if they can strengthen rectification in accordance with the requirements of the standard conditions of the iron and steel industry to achieve continuous standardized production and operation, they can re-apply for the regulations in accordance with the procedures during the subsequent dynamic adjustment. The list of 17 enterprises to be included in the rectification, the main existence of the following circumstances: one is the environmental protection department and relevant local inspection found that there are environmental problems, two is the safety supervision department inspection found that there are safety problems, three is not truthfully filled in the standard declaration materials, four is not completed on schedule to eliminate the task.The ministry of industry and information technology said that enterprises listed in the list of standard rectification, if rectification has been implemented in place, to learn lessons, in accordance with the rules and regulations in accordance with the actual operation;If the rectification has not been completed, the rectification shall be completed in time according to the rectification requirements of environmental protection, safety and other aspects. The 27 enterprises that plan to change the equipment involve the increase and decrease of smelting equipment. The main changes are as follows: first, the equipment has been approved by the relevant state departments to be completed and put into production in the past, but due to various reasons in the early stage, it is actually inconsistent with the original announcement.Second, after the original announcement, the enterprise has approved the implementation of capacity replacement, relocation and transformation and other construction projects, resulting in changes in equipment;Third, some smelting equipment was shut down and withdrawn due to steel capacity reduction, replacement and withdrawal.The ministry of industry and information technology said that the next step to standardize the enterprise smelting equipment changes, will continue to organize a strict audit, in line with the provisions and practical changes in batches;Those involving illegal new production capacity that do not meet the requirements of industrial policies will be included in the revocation list and will be dealt with seriously in conjunction with relevant departments.

1 the introduction Improving the reliability and utilization rate of coal mine equipment is one of the keys to improve coal mine production.Traditional fault maintenance and regular maintenance methods can not meet the requirements of production development.Due to the formation of modern centralized production mode, equipment upsizing and automation, state maintenance system based on equipment state monitoring and fault diagnosis technology is an advanced and effective maintenance method. So-called equipment state maintenance way, it is through continuous or periodic for equipment running status monitoring, diagnosis and forecast equipment failure in time, establish and improve the equipment state archives, determine the maintenance time and content, and to prepare maintenance unit need to replace parts or components, in order to shorten downtime and reduce maintenance costs, improve equipment utilization. 2. Disadvantages of regular maintenance Limitations of traditional periodic maintenance can be summarized as follows: (1) unnecessary maintenance may increase the failure rate According to statistics, frequent regular overhaul will increase the failure rate.Achieving state maintenance can reduce failure rate by 75%. (2) may increase maintenance costs, resulting in the waste of working hours of equipment regardless of the state of good or bad, all mechanical maintenance according to the plan, is bound to produce excess maintenance, resulting in waste. (3) reduced the operation rate and production efficiency of the equipment. (4) lead to the rigidity of maintenance personnel's thinking and poor diagnosis and maintenance of "abnormal situations" in various states. Application of equipment state maintenance technology in mines at home and abroad (1) overseas application examples Australia's Bougainville copper mine, which has been producing steadily since January 1972, is one of the most economically profitable large open-pit mining companies in the world.The mine has always attached great importance to the application of equipment status monitoring and fault diagnosis technology, and implemented the equipment status maintenance system to constantly improve the utilization rate of equipment. The mine monitoring center is equipped with the most advanced monitoring and diagnostic equipment and a special sampling vehicle.More than 3000 lubricating oil and bearing vibration test sampling points have been set up for relatively advanced large-scale equipment such as 13m shovel, 154t dump truck, +250 rotary drill, ball mill and crusher, etc., with an average of about 10 oil samples and 935 test items tested every day.All the analysis results are input into the computer system before 4pm every day, and the equipment executive manager determines the maintenance time and content of the equipment through the results reported by the computer system.For large fixed equipment, the monitoring center assigns special personnel to collect vibration signal on the spot, conduct frequency spectrum analysis and pattern processing indoors, and timely alarm if any abnormality is found. (2) benefits brought by maintenance of equipment status In the management of mining equipment using state maintenance, can bring a variety of benefits: (1) improve the equipment completion rate.For example, the completion rate of drilling RIGS was increased to 97.4%.The completion rate of ball mill was increased to 99%.The completion rate of crusher was increased to 98.1%.(2) through status monitoring to find hidden dangers in time, take measures to avoid the occurrence of major accidents;(3) extend the service life of the equipment, can appropriately extend the overhaul cycle;(4) save oil;(5) shorten the maintenance downtime of equipment, increase the effective operation time of equipment. (3) application in China's coal mines At present, equipment status monitoring and fault diagnosis technology has been widely used in modern enterprises, such as petroleum, chemical, electric power, metallurgy industry equipment management.Since the maintenance cost accounting of China's coal enterprises has not been placed in an important position, the state maintenance technology has not been widely used in the coal industry.Only a few enterprises in China have applied equipment status monitoring and fault diagnosis technology in coal production, and achieved good results. Xuzhou mining group sanhejian coal mine adopts state maintenance of only 1a, accurately predicts several major potential faults, ensures equipment safety, and saves 1.72 million yuan of various costs.Good economic and social benefits have been achieved.For example, the unbalanced fault of centrifugal fan has been successfully solved.G4 -- 73-11n028 type D centrifugal fan is composed of synchronous motor, axle box and impeller.TD 116/64 -- 10 motor, speed 600r/min, power 800kW.September 1998.During the regular switching operation of the two ventilators, it was found that the vibration of the two ventilators was severe.Radial vibration is almost three times that of a fan.The peak value of no. 4 measurement point reached 14.02mm/s.Exceeding the permitted scope stipulated in ISO2372.The temperature records at each measuring point show that the temperature does not change significantly, which eliminates the possibility of local bearing failure.The radial waveform of no.4 measuring point with the strongest vibration was collected by using the vibration 903 digital collector, and its spectrum diagram was obtained.It is found that it is based on power frequency and frequency multiplier, and the whole spectrum is in the shape of a fir tree.It can be inferred that the fan rotor is out of balance.Using the vibration pass SDES expert system diagnosis conclusion: (1) vibration spectrum to the base frequency component is the main, the rotor is estimated to exist dynamic imbalance or bending, it is recommended that the rotor into the dynamic balance.If the vibration is sudden increase, there may be rotor parts or scaling off;(2) large vibration and blade or fluid parameters, based on the balance of the fan impeller correction, add the weight of 6606g after the overall decline in vibration, successfully eliminate the hidden trouble. 4 conclusion The development of modern technology.As mechanical equipment becomes more and more automatic and complicated, the precision is also constantly improved. Based on equipment state monitoring and fault diagnosis technology, state maintenance is a necessary condition to improve equipment management and maintenance modernization level. The huge economic benefits will be recognized by more and more coal enterprises.

On nov 08, CSN released its third-quarter production and sales report for 2018: CSN's iron ore production totaled 7.6 million tons in the third quarter, up 13 percent from the second quarter, mainly thanks to the successful implementation of the mining plan and the successful launch of the first filtering facility. In the third quarter, CSN purchased 1.5 million tons of iron ore from third parties, down 20% from the second quarter. In the third quarter, CSN's iron ore sales totaled 9.29 million tons, up 14% from the second quarter and 17% from a year earlier. Domestic sales totaled 1.14 million tons, down 17% from the second quarter and 14% from a year earlier. The rest are sold to Asian and European markets. Since the second quarter, the global supply of high-silicon iron ore has declined, leading to a sharp reduction in the market discount for high-silicon mines in the third quarter. On the other hand, CSN has a $2.10 per dry tonne premium due to the low aluminium content of iron ore produced in the casad pedra region and the improved grade of iron. In the third quarter, CSN's adjusted earnings before interest and tax (EBITDA) were 16.27 million reais, up 34% year-on-year and up 15% month-on-month. CSN's free cash flow reached 840 million reais ($220 million) in the third quarter, up 110 million reais ($30 million) from 77.3 billion reais ($190 million) in the second quarter.

Coal demand in Europe after the last winter peak, ushered in the expected decline as the competitiveness of the renewable energy power generation coal, coal demand in Europe will have a long hibernation recently, deutsche bank said in a report, from 2012 to 2020, Europe will eliminate old coal-fired power plants, a large number of total scale to 28 gw, meanwhile, renewable energy power generation will continue to grow, according to data from the European commission will be new this year, including wind power in the European UnionSolar power and hydropower add up to 21 gigawatts, which will be 140 gigawatt analysts between 2012 and 2020, according to KrisVoorspools:European coal demand will fall this winter renewable energy share of natural gas power generation although priority will be diverted, but will also not immune from coal KrisVoorspools said, the operational efficiency of new power plants will be much higher than the elimination of old power plants, this means that under the condition of the same generation, coal-fired power plant coal demand in Europe this year will be lower than last year over the past 10 years, the eu carbon trading system and the coal price is low wait for factors, proportion of coal electricity in the eu has maintained at about a quarterBut as the eu member states to promote renewable energy and new power plant put into operation, the situation will be break point carbon consultants (PointCarbon) the European commission forecasts, according to four quarter of this year the coal output will fell 3% year on year, compared with the first quarter of this year will fall by 5%. Goldman sachs released earlier forecast that European hard coal demand will fall by 7 million tons in 2014, or 3.5% to 191 million tonnes last year winter, northern Europe set low temperature record, this year winter temperatures forecast, although has not fully released, but for predicting had this winter will not beCold this winter will not be as cold as last year, which means that the coal exporter, such as Germany's exports to its neighbours power will be reduced that will further depress demand PointCarbon YanQin, an analyst said European coal import main source for Russia and the United States, in the past two years as the natural gas power generation to strengthen competitiveness, did a lot of the impact of coal imports coal ChristianLelong, an analyst at Goldman sachs, said:Wind power generating electricity demand growth and winter temperatures this year will be the three main factors influencing the short-term coal demand in Europe, according to the European commission data, Germany this year is expected to add 5 gw, renewable energy power generation coal will add 5 gw, 2014 new coal-fired generation will be 3 gw this winter coal-fired power plant load rate will reach 75% to 80%. Bailey PhilHare consulting analyst said:There is no doubt that the new efficient coal-fired power plants almost everywhere will be in full operation throughout the winter the winter of this year's coal output is expected to be 1% to 2% lower than last year, according to the large power plants running bill (LargeCombustionPlantDirective) regulation, the UK will be eliminated this year a total of 5 gigawatts of old power plants, those who do not have carbon capture and storage capacity of coal-fired power plant project also will no longer be able to approvedGermany this year, the number of new coal plant hair will also is very limited, this situation until 2015 to improve weak electricity prices is the main factor of the new plant construction, environmental issues and strong competition from renewable energy is also cannot ignore the reason why the eu plans to phase out the old accounted for 40% of all European power plant scale, the impact on European coal demand is obvious but the international energy agency (IEA), center for clean coal says, completely shut down than up early before the proposal, this way the impact on the coal demand in Europe is much smallerCoal rate decline is the main cause of the decline in demand in Europe for Europe's main coal producer, is certainly not a good news have predicted, with the decline in demand in Europe, coal enterprises will have winter in many countries such as Britain Poland Spain requires the government to raise the price of coal, coal enterprises to help them through the UK's largest coal producer UKCoal has been applied to the government for money, to come to avoid bankruptcyPoland's KompaniaWeglowa, Europe's largest coal producer, revealed last month that it was considering asking for government emergency aid.

BHP said its analysis of China's proposed One Belt And One Road infrastructure projects showed that China's One Belt And One Road would boost copper demand by about 1.6m tonnes, or 7 per cent of China's annual copper demand.Seventy percent of that demand will come from 100 power plant projects. So far, 68 countries and regions in Eurasia, Africa, Latin America and the Pacific region have participated in One Belt And One Road, with a total of 115 projects. The "One Belt And One Road" project, which accounts for about a third of the global economy, will pull $1.3 trillion in investment by 2023.

The global energy outlook of various energy think tank analysts began in the early 1970s.At a time when the Middle East crisis has led to high oil prices, major energy consumers have realized that a mature forecasting model is needed to make energy planning and energy policies.Every year, the international energy organization, major oil companies and energy consulting agencies release dozens of global energy prospects according to their respective prediction model systems. Based on the prediction of global economic trends, the paper analyzes medium - and long-term trends of world energy development. Since the beginning of this year, the international energy agency (IEA), the U.S. energy information administration (EIA), OPEC, BP, exxon mobil, China petroleum economics and technology research institute (ETRI), IHS, Norwegian ship classification society, etc., have released the 2018 global energy outlook, which has attracted wide attention from the industry. Today's energy outlook not only predicts future energy development scenarios, but also affects future energy trends, especially at the "crossroads" of today's global energy landscape transformation. By summarizing and comparing the energy outlook of different institutions and seeking common features among different institutions, it is more helpful for us to grasp new trends and have a clear aim for future energy development. Trend 1: growth in energy demand slows Trend 2: energy pattern "four under the heaven" Trend 3: oil use to move faster to non-combustion areas Trend 4: natural gas consumption is shifting Trend 5: the renewable energy bottleneck is being broken one by one
