Recently, the 300 kt/year carbon calcination flue gas purification system project of the Sixth Agricultural Division of Xinjiang successfully passed the final acceptance inspection and was officially put into operation. The calcination workshop of the 300 kt/year anode project of Xinjiang Nongliushi Carbon Co., Ltd., located in the Bingtuan Zhundong Park, is equipped with four calcination furnaces, producing 300 kt/a of calcined coke. The flue gas purification system configured for this project can simultaneously treat the flue gas from the four chamber furnaces in the calcination workshop to ensure compliant emissions. After undergoing SNCR denitrification, the calcination flue gas passes through the waste heat boiler superheater and evaporator for cooling, then enters the SCR denitrification system. It subsequently passes through an economizer and is directed by the exhaust fan into the wet desulfurization system to remove SO₂ from the flue gas, after which it enters a wet electrostatic precipitator to remove dust and other particulate matter. The purified flue gas is discharged into the atmosphere through the chimney.

China Energy Engineering Corporation Limited (03996.HK) announced that recently, its subsidiary, China Power Engineering Consulting Group North-west Electric Power Design Institute Co., Ltd. (the consortium leader) formed a consortium with China Energy Engineering Group Hunan Electric Power Design Institute Co., Ltd. and won the bid for the 6×660,000 kW coal-fired power project (EPC) in the Bingzhun Industrial Park of the China-Kazakhstan Horgos International Border Cooperation Center (the "Project").

The construction of the Project includes six 660,000 kW ultra-supercritical coal-fired generating units, as well as the simultaneous construction of environmental protection facilities such as desulfurization, denitrification, and dust removal. The total construction period is approximately 36.5 months.

In the context of global economic recovery, the silver industry chain has welcomed new development opportunities. As one of the important precious metals, silver not only plays a role in value preservation and investment in the financial market but also, due to its excellent conductivity, thermal conductivity, and antibacterial properties, is widely used in various fields such as the electronics industry, healthcare, solar cells, and automobile manufacturing. To further promote the sustainable development of the silver industry and strengthen communication and cooperation among industries, it is planned to hold the 2025SMM (6th) Silver Industry Chain Innovation Conference in May 2025. In recent years, with the growth in global demand for renewable energy and high-tech products, the industrial application demand for silver has significantly increased. At the same time, the uncertainties in the global economy and changes in monetary policy have also prompted more investors to pay attention to the safe-haven attributes of silver. As an important commodity market globally, the attention to the silver industry chain in Asia, North America, and Europe has gradually increased, and the changes in local policies, technological innovation, and market demand have had a profound impact on the entire industry chain. At this conference, Hunan Zhengming Environmental Protection Co., Ltd. will attend in full regalia, joining peers from upstream and downstream of the silver industry, focusing on the mining, processing, trading, investment, and application of silver, and comprehensively discussing the challenges faced by the industry and future development opportunities.

China Energy Engineering Corporation Limited announced that the consortium, consisting of its subsidiary China Energy Engineering Group Jiangsu Electric Power Design Institute Co., Ltd. (the consortium leader), China Energy Engineering Group Jiangsu Electric Power Construction No.3 Engineering Co., Ltd., and China Energy Engineering Group Anhui Electric Power Construction No.2 Engineering Co., Ltd., has won the bid for the EPC general contracting project of the Jiangyin Sulong 2×660 MW Phase IV Expansion Project, with a bid amount of approximately 5.0051 billion yuan. The project construction includes the construction of two new 2×660 MW ultra-supercritical, secondary reheat coal-fired generating units, along with the simultaneous installation of flue gas desulfurization and denitrification devices. The total project duration is approximately 22 months. Currently, the relevant parties have not yet officially signed the contract, and the aforementioned project remains uncertain.

In the upcoming year of 2025, we anticipate that the global economy will face a series of complex and volatile challenges. With the conclusion of the US presidential election, the uncertainty surrounding global trade policies is expected to further increase, presenting new issues for international trade cooperation. In the realm of geopolitics, ongoing conflicts and tensions show no significant signs of easing, posing threats not only to global security but also significantly impacting resource allocation and industrial layouts. Against this macro backdrop, industrial relocation and supply chain restructuring have become critical topics that we must closely monitor. At the industrial level, the rising trend of protectionism in mineral resources is directly affecting the stability of global copper concentrate TCs. With the rapid expansion of global smelting capacity, the profit margins of copper smelters are being further compressed, and the challenges faced by the industry are becoming increasingly severe. In the field of secondary copper raw materials, the advancement of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) standards and the "dual carbon" goals have significantly increased market attention on secondary copper. However, the "reverse invoicing" policy implemented in 2024 and the "Fair Competition Regulations" have had a profound impact on the secondary copper industry. Looking ahead to 2025, the changes in the landscape of the secondary copper industry will have a critical impact on the entire copper industry chain. Additionally, with the cancellation of tax subsidies and other incentive measures, the space for copper cathode trade is expected to further narrow. We anticipate that the procurement ratio of copper processing materials between traders and smelters will show a more pronounced differentiation. In this context, the "CCIE 2025 SMM (20th) Copper Industry Conference and Copper Industry Expo," meticulously prepared by SMM, will be grandly held in Nanchang, Jiangxi, from April 22-25, 2025. Hunan Zhengming Environmental Protection Co., Ltd. will make a splendid appearance at this conference.
