This year, Shandong Changyi Petrochemical consumed 0.55 tons of standard coal equivalent/10,000 yuan of output, a drop of 3.9 percent, compared with the same last year period, and saved 54,400 tons of standard coal equivalent in the first 10 months, in energy consumption per unit of output, reaching its annual energy-saving goal ahead of schedule.
Shandong Changyi established an energy-saving network with an energy-saving group to coordinate energy saving for the whole company and an energy management agent for each energy-consuming department for more complete energy management, statistics, and analysis. The company also established a reward and penalty system for energy savings, to choose model individuals and units, and to fine those who fail. Workers have been asked to identify hidden dangers in discharges, leaks, and emissions, and all devices are monitored around the clock. So far, hundreds of hidden danger spots have been found and the problems dealt with immediately. The company has also spent more on energy-saving and on a DCC mixed refrigerant cycle renovation and a coking unit expansion, resulting in a 10-percent drop in energy consumption. In the first 10 months, it came up with many energy-saving measures, saving more than 200,000 tons of water and 300,000 kWh of power. Estimates are that it will save 60,600 tons of standard coal equivalent in all of 2012.
