Xinhua Beijing Jan. 13 (Xinhua Jiang Guocheng) Shijingshan Shougang Iron and Steel 13, the main flow cut-off ceremony held at the Capital Iron and Steel Group, which marks the Chinese to improve the Beijing air quality, shutting down 800 million tons Beijing city steel production target has been achieved on time. Shougang has thus become the first Chinese steel industry in the development of the overall shift to the large coastal enterprises.

halted and the plant of Shougang, Shijingshan 8.5 square kilometers area will transform the development of new industries. Shougang Group Chairman Zhu Jimin said the shutdown Shijingshan ceremony marked the main flow of steel in China with 90 years of history, Shougang has more than 10 million people in transition into a new stage of development. Shougang will be in Beijing

Shijingshan District in Beijing Shougang was founded in 1919. After the founding of New China, Beijing, Shougang gradually developed into big profits. Only 1979 to 2009, Shougang accumulated profits tax turned over to state reached 60.8 billion yuan.

However, with the expansion of Beijing, Shougang location changes from year to Beijing city west of Beijing, the capital limits the capacity of regional and environmental development of Shougang. Although the profitable low-end steel production, but also emit large quantities of dust, soot and sulfur dioxide. Years ago, the Shijingshan District of air pollution is more serious, some residents of the windows are often covered with a black gap of dust.

order to meet the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, to minimize the emission of pollutants, in 2005, according to the State Council's decision, the National Development and Reform Commission officially approved the relocation of Shougang plan, agreed to gradually shut down the steel plant in Shijingshan capacity, to the end of 2010 to complete the relocation. Meanwhile, the Development and Reform Commission agreed that in the Bohai Bay in Hebei Province Shougang Caofeidian building a modern new iron and steel enterprises in Beijing, construction of cold-rolled sheet production line in Shunyi.

present, from the old plant about 4 hour drive from Beijing Shougang steel plant has reached the Tang annual steel production capacity of 9.7 million tons. This new iron and steel enterprises with the largest 5500 cubic meters of blast furnace and other production equipment, constitutes a high efficiency, low-cost production operating system.

Zhu Jimin said the steel plant is a Jingtang saving green mills. New steel mill to reduce, reuse and recycle into the principle of the waste heat, residual pressure, residual gas, waste water, ferrous material and full recycling of solid waste, the basic realization of zero emissions, water recycling rate will reach 97.5% .

Earlier, the National Development and Reform Commission deputy director Liu Tienan said that China has 46 steel companies located in provincial capitals and medium-sized cities, not only brought great pressure on the urban environment, but also the development of enterprise itself has been largely restricted . Shougang steel plant relocation of the city to explore mode, adjust the layout of the Chinese steel industry has a good reference.
