In order to implement the innovation-driven strategy, let enterprises in need find suitable technologies, let advanced technologies find suitable enterprises, improve the conversion rate and popularization rate of advanced and applicable technologies, and then improve the level of resource conservation and comprehensive utilization, as early as 2012, the former Ministry of Land and Resources established a catalogue system for the promotion of advanced and applicable mineral resources conservation and comprehensive utilization, and continuously released 6 batches of 334 advanced and applicable technologies, it has played an important role in promoting the transformation of mining development mode and promoting the high-quality development of mining.
"Under the active guidance of the natural resources department, industry associations and scientific research units actively participate, and enterprises actively innovate and consciously benchmark, forming a collaborative promotion method of government, industry, university, research and application, and forming a new integration of technological research, development, and application of production. In the pattern, the resource, economic and ecological benefits of mining enterprises have been significantly improved." The Ministry of natural resources of mineral resources protection and supervision department of the relevant person in charge of the introduction.
This is also true. According to incomplete statistics, since the Ministry of Natural Resources issued advanced applicable technologies, 334 advanced applicable technologies have been applied in 2818 mining enterprises, revitalizing a large number of difficult-to-use mineral resources, and the "three rates" index has been significantly improved. it has promoted the level of resource conservation and comprehensive utilization, and promoted the high-quality development of the mining industry.
According to statistics on the application of 235 mining enterprises, since 2012, through the promotion of advanced and applicable technologies, a total of 3.31 billion tons of oil resources, 164.5 billion cubic meters of natural gas resources, 0.8 billion tons of coal resources, 4.07 billion tons of iron ore resources and 0.1 billion tons of phosphate rock resources have been activated, with an average increase of 9 percentage points in oil recovery, 8 percentage points in solid mineral mining recovery and 9.5 percentage points in mineral processing recovery, the added value of the mining industry increased by 204.44 billion yuan and the profit increased by 62.37 billion yuan, saving 51000 mu of land, 10.43 billion kWh of electricity, 0.83 billion tons of water and 0.63 billion tons of solid waste.
"more importantly, with the continuous promotion and application of 334 advanced and applicable technologies, a number of scientific and technological achievements have been recognized by the state and society, and have been rapidly transformed into advanced productive forces. it will promote the improvement of the technological innovation capability of mining enterprises and the accelerated transformation of the driving force of mining development." According to the person in charge of the Department of Mineral Resources Protection and Supervision of the Ministry of Natural Resources, these technologies have successively won 1521 national invention patents and utility model patents, 585 scientific and technological awards (54 national awards and 330 provincial and ministerial awards), and formed 328 technical standards (16 national standards, 53 industry standards and 259 enterprise standards).
It is imperative to strengthen the promotion
Strengthening technological innovation is the only way for China to transform from a big mining country to a mining power, and it is also an inevitable requirement for China's mining industry to adapt to the new situation and achieve high-quality development. The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed that we should adhere to the principle of giving priority to conservation, protection and natural restoration, so as to form a spatial pattern, industrial structure, mode of production and lifestyle of saving resources and protecting the environment.
Although my country's mining industry has made significant progress in innovation-driven in recent years, overall, the technological innovation capabilities of my country's mining industry have not yet been able to meet the needs of high-quality development, and the development method is still relatively extensive. Judging from the equipment and technology level of nearly 10,000 metal mines in China, only about 8% of large mines have approached or reached the international advanced level, about 30% of medium-sized mines are still using the technology and equipment of the 1970 s and 1980 s, and about 60% of small mines have small production scale and backward technology and equipment, so it is urgent to change the mining development mode through the popularization and application of advanced and applicable technologies, build a new development model with high scientific and technological content, low resource consumption and less environmental pollution, so as to improve quality and efficiency.
"The promotion of advanced technology is an inevitable requirement for the construction of ecological civilization." The relevant person in charge of the Department of Mineral Resources Protection and Supervision of the Ministry of Natural Resources said that saving resources is the fundamental policy to protect the environment, and the fundamental way to promote the conservation and comprehensive utilization of mineral resources is scientific and technological innovation, and the key is to promote the application of advanced technology. The application of advanced technology by mining enterprises can not only reduce the total amount of mineral resources mining, reduce the emission of "three wastes", reduce the occupation of land, and reduce the adverse impact on the natural ecological environment, but also expand the profit growth point of enterprises, realize the win-win situation of resource development, economic and environmental benefits, and improve the competitiveness and sustainable development ability of enterprises.
More importantly, as the basic point of China's national security, the degree of resource security is directly related to the overall strategic security of the country.
"From building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way to basically realizing modernization, and then to building a modern and powerful socialist country in an all-round way, we need strong support and protection from mineral resources. China's mineral resources are less rich ore, and more poor ore, co-associated ore and refractory ore, which determines that we can only use resources effectively and efficiently and improve our resource security capacity by vigorously developing and promoting the application of advanced and applicable technologies." The relevant person in charge of the Department of Mineral Resources Protection and Supervision of the Ministry of Natural Resources said.
Strictly control the entrance to ensure advanced
Selection is an important part of the promotion and application of technology. Adhering to standards, strict procedures, fairness and justice, and truly selecting advanced technologies in various industries and fields, and enabling them to be transformed into actual productivity as soon as possible, are the fundamentals of selecting advanced and applicable technologies and establishing a promotion catalog.
Quality is the lifeline of the selection. The Department of Mineral Resources Protection and Supervision of the Ministry of Natural Resources attaches great importance to the selection of advanced and applicable technologies for the conservation and comprehensive utilization of mineral resources in 2019. The China Academy of Natural Resources Economics has carefully organized the selection scope and selection conditions, and formulated technological innovation, Seven evaluation indicators including award patent standards, exploration (development) efficiency, ecological environment benefits, resource economic benefits, promotion and application, and technical stability, more than 100 experts in mining, geology, exploration, safety, mineral processing, chemistry, information technology, petroleum engineering, comprehensive utilization and other fields have been specially selected to select the 188 declared technologies one by one, so as to ensure the quality of technology import.
It is understood that what is different from the past is that the scope of this selection has been expanded to the field of exploration, in addition to new technologies, new processes, and new equipment for mining, mineral processing, comprehensive utilization, and recycling, as well as digital, automation, informatization, and intelligent mines. In addition to new technologies and new equipment, new technologies, new methods, and new equipment such as geophysical prospecting, geochemical prospecting, remote sensing, drilling, and rock testing are also included in the selection.
At the same time, the review process is more scientific and rigorous than ever before. First, according to the field to which the technology belongs, 3 experts are selected from the expert database for back-to-back independent evaluation for each technology, and scored according to the selection scoring criteria. After the preliminary evaluation opinions are formed, all members of the expert group established according to the category are scored according to the scoring criteria, and the selection opinions are formed after collective demonstration.
"In view of this selection, we adhere to the principle of quality first, rather than abuse. Through the collective demonstration of the expert group, we can truly evaluate justice, level, quality and guidance, so as to ensure that every technology selected can stand, pass hard, and stand the test of practice and history." The relevant person in charge of the Department of Mineral Resources Protection and Supervision of the Ministry of Natural Resources said.
Each newly selected technology is strict and cautious, and the first 6 batches of advanced applicable technologies will also be updated according to the needs of the development of the situation. It is understood that in June this year, while the Ministry of Natural Resources launched the collection of advanced and applicable technologies for the conservation and comprehensive utilization of mineral resources in 2019, it simultaneously carried out the update of the first six batches of advanced and applicable technology catalogues, and updated and replaced those technologies that have been replaced by more advanced and applicable technologies in a timely manner.
"With the development of the situation and the continuous progress of technology, some advanced and applicable technologies in the past may be replaced by new ones. This requires us to keep pace with the times, constantly update the catalog, and truly play the guiding role of advanced and applicable technologies." According to the relevant person in charge of the Department of Mineral Resources Protection and Supervision of the Ministry of Natural Resources, two expert demonstrations have been organized for the first six batches of advanced and applicable technology catalogues on the basis of extensively soliciting opinions from associations and mining enterprises. The purpose is to make each technology in the catalogue always take the lead.
