All along, the situation of China's rare earth industry is small and scattered, and the industrial concentration formed by each of them has not been fundamentally changed. The serious damage to the ecological environment caused by the development and utilization of rare earth resources has also triggered Common concerns and doubts from all walks of life, the environmental problems of rare earths have become a bottleneck restricting the healthy development of the whole industry. However, the reporter obtained an inspiring news in the interview in early January: the representative two major rare earth group systems in the north and south of China - Baotou Steel Rare Earth and Cangzhou Rare Earth Group have made significant breakthroughs in industrial integration, marking China's rare earth industry environmental governance "breaking ice" is imminent. Realization of resource integration
“On December 31, 2013, Baotou Steel Group's controlling shareholder Baotou Steel Group and 9 private rare earth enterprises in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region signed the “Integration and Restructuring Agreement†respectively. Currently, they are providing guidance on financial management and environmental compliance for these 9 companies. And the specification. After it meets the standards of the listed company's subsidiaries, it will be the absolute holding subsidiary of Baotou Steel Rare Earth. In the future, the qualified enterprises will join the Baotou Steel Rare Earth Shares.†Zhang Rihui, Secretary of Baotou Steel Rare Earth Board, in an interview Said.
Zhang Rihui said that the signing of the agreement is of great significance for protecting the environment, conserving resources, and promoting the healthy and orderly development of the autonomous region and even the national rare earth industry. Baotou Steel Rare Earth will take the opportunity of signing the integration and reorganization agreement to promote the development of the rare earth industry in Inner Mongolia in the direction of large-scale, centralized, base, and modernization, promote the centralized management and ecological construction of the “three wastes†of the rare earth industry, and play a leading role in leading enterprises. Promote the environmental protection level of China's rare earth industry to a new level.
It is understood that in recent years, in order to strengthen environmental protection and intensive use of rare earth resources, Baotou Steel Rare Earth is committed to the establishment of the North China Rare Earth Group, and its program has been approved by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. In December 2012, Baotou Steel Rare Earth implemented integration and restructuring of 12 enterprises in Inner Mongolia. In addition, 9 enterprises integrated in this time, only three companies in Inner Mongolia that do not have the standards of listed companies are not included in the integration, indicating Baotou Steel Rare Earth The integration and reorganization of the upstream enterprises of rare earths in Inner Mongolia has been basically completed. At the same time, Baotou Steel Rare Earth has also increased its investment in environmental protection. The “three-concentration†project with a total investment of 2.2 billion yuan for concentrated rare earth roasting, centralized smelting and separation, and centralized wastewater treatment is being implemented. This project is by far the largest environmental protection construction project of Baotou Steel Rare Earth. It concentrates some rare earth enterprises in one area at present. Through the adjustment of technology and new production lines, the latest smelting and separation technology is applied on the one hand, and advanced environmental protection facilities are synchronized on the one hand during the construction period of the production line. To ensure that the "three wastes" meet the standard discharge.
Quzhou Rare Earth Group is a leading enterprise representing the development of rare earth resources in southern China. It has also made substantial breakthroughs in the “downsizing†of local rare earth mines. Recently, the website of the Ministry of Environmental Protection disclosed that the environmental impact assessment report of the first phase of the rare earth mine integration project of Zhangzhou Rare Earth Group was approved by the Ministry of Environmental Protection. The first phase of the integration project plans to integrate 48 mines into 15, 16 in Longnan, and 11 in Dingnan. The second phase of integration will include the integration of Quannan, Anyuan, Xinfeng, Xunwu, Ningdu and Jixian rare earth mineral rights. According to the EIA report, the total investment of the Luzhou Rare Earth Integration Project is 1.36 billion yuan, and the environmental protection investment is estimated to be 510 million yuan, accounting for 37.8%. It is mainly used for the ecological restoration of abandoned land and gobs in the mining area and the tail water collection in the mining area. Governance.
Large group model is conducive to environmental governance
As one of the senior rare earth experts involved in the "Rare Earth Industry Pollutant Emission Standards", Wang Zhenzhen, former vice president of China Nonferrous Engineering Design and Research Institute, revealed that China's rare earth industry is developing rapidly, while rare earth mining, selection, smelting and separation production. The “three wastes†and radioactive materials produced in the process have caused different degrees of pollution to the ecological environment, and the state has paid a certain price for this. Since 2011, in order to promote the healthy development of the rare earth industry, the state has successively issued a series of related environmental protection policies and environmental protection standards to strengthen the supervision of the environment and resources in the process of rare earth production. Although many achievements have been made, it has not yet reached expected result. At present, there are 890 rare earth smelting and separating enterprises in the country, but only 30 of them have obtained rare earth access conditions. One of the main reasons is that environmental protection is not up to standard.
Wang Guozhen pointed out that the breakthrough of the integration of the two major rare earths in the north and the south has made the environmental protection of the whole industry expected to "break the ice". Large-scale advanced enterprises integrate small-scale rare earth enterprises with backward production capacity. This integration is very beneficial to the clean production of the rare earth industry. Because the industry integrates and reorganizes, it can reduce the number of mining entities, to a certain extent, eliminate illegal piracy, over-exploitation, indiscriminate mining and damage to the environment, and reduce the number of smelting and separating manufacturers. The rare earth industry access policy and environmental protection standards are easy to implement; Effective control of production capacity is beneficial to the protection of rare earths and ecological environment; large enterprises have the strength to improve resource recovery rate and technological level, which is of great significance to the overall upgrading of rare earth environmental protection technology. After the integration, large enterprise groups such as Baotou Steel Group and Zhangzhou Rare Earth Group can take the lead in implementing environmental protection demonstration projects, promoting the adjustment and upgrading of the rare earth industry, eliminating the disorderly competition in the industry at the expense of the environment, and pushing the application of rare earths. The wider and higher technology field will truly transform the resource advantages of China's rare earth into economic advantages and promote the sustainable, healthy and scientific development of the industry.
Combine reorganization with environmental remediation
Professor Zhang Wei, dean of the College of Rare Earths of Inner Mongolia University of Science and Technology, believes that the integration of rare earth industry is conducive to enterprises to achieve environmentally friendly and clean production. Although China is a big country in the production of rare earths, it is not a strong country in the production of rare earths. On the one hand, most SMEs have backward technology and equipment, and the serious damage to the ecological environment has not been completely eliminated. The environmental debts are very alarming. On the other hand, the industrial concentration is low, resulting in excessive consumption of rare earth resources. The rate is low and the waste is serious. The environmental protection cost of rare earth products has not been reflected. After small enterprises withdraw from market competition, large enterprises are more likely to strictly enforce environmental protection standards and mineral resources laws, truly control the total amount of resources extracted and solve environmental pollution problems, and achieve cleaner production.
To this end, experts such as Zhang Wei and Wang Guozhen suggested that the relevant state departments should combine environmental protection and industry integration and reorganization, continue to carry out in-depth rectification of environmental protection of rare earth enterprises; promote cleaner production of enterprises, and continue to crack down on illegal exploitation and illegal production. Destruction of ecological and environmental pollution behaviors; play the role of leading rare earth enterprises in upgrading and upgrading the traditional rare earth industry, and urge new integrated enterprises to implement environmental protection reform as soon as possible; continue to strengthen environmental protection of rare earth production, accelerate the transformation of development mode, and build a modern rare earth industry system.
