note! The steel industry will implement a new sewage permit system

July 8, at the eighth China steel Energy Forum, the Environmental Protection Department of Environmental Engineering Assessment Center director Zhao Chunli Steel introduced the latest development of the iron and steel sewage permit system reform. She said that the Ministry of Environmental Protection will release a formal draft of the steel industry sewage permit application and issuance technical specifications in late July this year, involving the management of pollutant discharge permits for atmospheric pollutants and water pollutants in steel enterprises.

It is expected that by the end of 2018, the Ministry of Environmental Protection will complete the issuance of new pollutant discharge permits for about 5,000 steel enterprises across the country, including about 650 companies with ironmaking and steelmaking capabilities and more than 4,350 independent rolling mills. Among them, the iron and steel enterprises in the surrounding areas of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei will take the lead in completing the “Air Pollution Prevention and Control Work Plan for 2017 in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei and the surrounding areas” issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection on February 17 this year. Key industry discharge permits are issued. (Transportation: In the first half of the year, these 66 steel companies received a sewage permit)

New environmental requirements

The new pollutant discharge permit system implements the whole process management and multi-pollutant collaborative control of fixed pollution sources through the “one license” management mode for issuing emission permits to enterprises, achieving refined, informationized, systematic, scientific and legalized. management.

General Plan Environmental Research Institute at the chief architect of the metallurgical industry planning for the new financial reporter Liu Tao said, "fine" management is the biggest highlight of the new discharge permit system. Compared with the past, enterprises need to provide environmental protection departments with more raw materials related to pollution discharge and treatment, including facility management, daily operation of facilities, production data, monitoring data, etc., forming monthly, quarterly and annual report submissions.

"Although in the past, enterprises only had one sewage permit, but it was just a piece of paper. Without such a fine and comprehensive evaluation index, it is naturally not too binding on the enterprise." Liu Tao said. The new certificate will promote enterprises to actively monitor pollution emissions and proactively provide environmental data.

On June 13 this year, the Ministry of Environmental Protection issued a draft for the revision of 20 national pollutant discharge standards such as “Steel Sintering and Pellet Industry Air Pollutant Emission Standards”. The official draft will be released as soon as September this year.

According to the standards in the current draft for comments, Liu Tao estimates that a 5 million tons steel plant, this part of the new input sewage treatment facilities is about 300-500 million, in addition, each type of exhaust gas main discharge should be installed with automatic monitoring facilities, each The investment in Taiwan facilities is about several hundred thousand. In addition to the facilities investment, according to higher standards, the daily operating costs of corporate environmental protection need about 200 yuan per ton of steel.

Liu Tao believes that for steel enterprises whose current efficiency is at the upper-middle level (that is, the profit per ton of steel reaches 600 yuan to 1,000 yuan), the cost can be recovered in about one quarter to half a year. For companies with weaker profitability, it takes longer to recover costs.

Wide entry and strict

Another major feature of the new sewage permit system is “wide-in and strict-out”. All compliant steel companies must apply for a sewage permit, and they can get a sewage permit as long as they apply. However, Liu Tao believes that the pressure of the future enterprise is not on the increase of environmental protection costs, but whether it can meet the requirements of the system. Otherwise, May be ordered to stop production. He predicted that in the future, the state will also introduce a series of supporting policies to promote the implementation of the system, rather than merely punishing companies to achieve compliance.

A steel company insider said in an interview that the formal introduction of the system is not only a license, but also a revolutionary change for enterprises. It requires enterprises to go from hardware, software and management. Promote and promote self-discipline and fair competition. He believes that enterprises need to go through a process of exploration in order to adapt to the new sewage permit system. National and local emission standards should be considered in a step-by-step manner.

Zhao Chunli introduced that at present, the website of the steel filing system has been opened up, and the self-monitoring technical guide for the sewage industry in the steel industry is being prepared. The information platform for the sewage permit application and the information disclosure system is also being improved.
