On March 15, Wang Zhaojia, deputy general manager of Bbmg Corporation(601992) and executive director of Beijing General Research Institute of building materials, pointed out in an interview with China Securities Journal that the positioning of cement enterprises is very critical. At present, many large cement enterprises position themselves as urban purifiers, undertake the treatment and disposal of urban solid wastes and other wastes, and use wastes to replace raw fuels to save energy and resource consumption. At the same time, rely on the innovation of products, processes and technologies to achieve the low-carbon emission target of the cement industry.
Wang Zhaojia pointed out that the innovation and development of cement enterprises should start from the perspective of products, and product innovation and concept innovation complement each other. On the one hand, enterprise innovation should pay attention to commercial value and innovate from the perspective of product demand. Only by starting from demand and making innovative products can we have innovative value. For example, many special cements for airport runways and nuclear power projects are new varieties created from downstream demand. On the other hand, as a traditional industry, the cement industry itself is a red sea market. Many traditional products need to be improved from the process flow and the concept of energy conservation and emission reduction to make the cement industry adapt to the concept of energy conservation and environmental protection.
According to Wang Zhaojia, by strengthening the optimization and integration of scientific and technological innovation resources and actively promoting the construction of scientific and technological innovation complex and ecosystem, the General Institute has created three scientific and technological innovation chains matching the group’s industrial chain, including the scientific and technological innovation chain of cement and environmental protection industry, the scientific and technological innovation chain of concrete and new materials industry, and the collaborative scientific and technological innovation chain of green building materials and green buildings. In terms of carbon emission reduction, carbon neutralization, collaborative disposal, multi scene intelligence and smart building, 18 key science and technology projects of the group in 2022 were launched and implemented, and a number of independent scientific and technological achievements were produced in more than 15% fuel substitution, high-efficiency and energy-saving vertical grinding system, energy-saving technical transformation of cement clinker line, environmental protection intelligent technology of glazed products, Siasun Robot&Automation Co.Ltd(300024) and other aspects, Promote the innovation and development of science and technology enabled industries.
“At present, the General Institute carries out scientific and technological innovation around the four green and one new five innovation fields of green manufacturing, green environmental protection, green building materials, green building and new materials. The goal is to create a source of scientific and technological innovation for China’s solid waste disposal.” “At present, large-scale cement enterprises have the ability to deal with solid waste. Under the guidance of the concept of green emission reduction, cement enterprises are expected to achieve the goal of ‘double carbon’ ahead of time. At the same time, cement enterprises can create a regional development ecosystem and complex through collaborative disposal, so as to enable the green development of downstream real estate and property industries,” Wang Zhaojia told China Securities Journal
