China's first coking statute is expected to be introduced within the year. "The Regulations of Shanxi Province on Coking Industry Management (Draft)" is included in the legislative plan

The reporter learned from the 2005 Standing Committee of the Shanxi Province Coke Industry Association held on April 26 that Shanxi is a “special order” for the coking industry in Shanxi Province. This year it was listed as Provincial People’s Congress. The formal legislative plan is expected to be introduced during the year. This will be the first industry regulation in the coking industry in China and even in the world.

Zhang Gangfeng, secretary general of the Shanxi Coke Association, explained the formulation and legislation of the Regulations. This industry regulation formed a preliminary draft in April 2004. During this period, nine changes were submitted to the Standing Committee of the People's Congress of Shanxi Province at the end of last year and this year was included in the formal legislative plan of the Provincial People's Congress. Its purpose is to standardize the production of coking enterprises and coke business activities, protect resources and the environment, and promote the healthy and orderly development of the coking industry. The "Regulations" stipulates that the development of the coking industry should adhere to the principles of unified planning, rational distribution, total control, structural optimization, comprehensive utilization, resource conservation, and environmental protection. The specific provisions involve regulating the order of coal transportation and sales, establishing a “permit” system, standardizing the production and management of the coking industry, and recovering associated gases such as gas, coal tar, and crude benzene generated during the production of coke.

Shanxi Province is a large coke province in China. In 2004, the output of coke in Shanxi Province was 80 million tons, which accounted for about 40% of the national output and 18% of the world's total output. It exported 12 million tons of coke, which accounted for 80% of the country's export coke, and accounted for 50% of the international coke market supply. However, there are still many problems that need to be solved in the development of the Shanxi coking industry. First, there are a large number of coking projects that have been built illegally, and the total amount has gone out of control. At present, there are 712 coking projects that have been completed or under construction in the province, of which less than 160 have been approved, and the rest have been illegally launched. Second, the recycling facilities are not perfect, the degree of comprehensive utilization of resources is low, and a large number of high value-added coking products are not available. Recycling, the province directly and indirectly loses approximately 1.5 million tons of coal tar in one year, and loses about 12.8 billion cubic meters of coke oven gas with high calorific value. The two items are equivalent to RMB 100 million yuan. Third, Shanxi's coking industry is the largest and most concentrated in Shanxi Province. Serious pollution sources, the air and water environment pollution load respectively accounted for 30% and 40% of the province's total load, the production cost is extremely heavy. Because administrative measures and market mechanisms are difficult to complete the macro-control of the industry, local industry regulations must be introduced as soon as possible.
