[ Focus on Chemical Machinery and Equipment Network ] Recently, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment issued the "Carbon Monitoring and Evaluation Pilot Work Plan" to deploy carbon monitoring and evaluation pilot work, and carry out carbon monitoring and evaluation pilots at the three levels of regions, cities and key industries

Carbon monitoring is the basis for controlling carbon emissions and carbon emission rights trading
.
After China proposes to achieve "carbon peak" by 2030 and achieve the goal of "carbon neutrality" by 2060, reducing carbon emissions has become a key task of China at this stage
.
As a low-cost emission reduction method, the domestic carbon emission rights trading market has gradually begun to build
.
In July this year, the national carbon emission trading market for the power generation industry went online for trading, marking the official launch of China's carbon emission trading market
.
The focus of carbon trading is to calculate carbon emissions.
Therefore, after the opening of the carbon trading market, the establishment and improvement of carbon monitoring and evaluation technology and method systems is imminent
.

　　The "Carbon Monitoring and Evaluation Pilot Work Plan" proposes to explore the establishment of a carbon monitoring and evaluation technical method system by the end of 2022
.
To achieve this goal, we must first carry out pilot work
.
The carbon monitoring and evaluation pilots deployed in the "Plan" focus on three levels: regions, cities, and key industries:

　　At the regional level, integrated monitoring of regional atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations, annual changes in land use in typical regions, and carbon sequestration in ecosystems are carried out
.
At the city level, 16 cities including Tangshan, Taiyuan, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Panjin, and Nantong were selected to carry out pilot projects for monitoring atmospheric greenhouse gases and ocean carbon sinks
.
At the level of key industries, 11 group companies in five key industries including thermal power, steel, oil and gas mining, coal mining and waste treatment were selected to carry out pilot monitoring of greenhouse gases
.

　　The main monitoring objects of carbon monitoring include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and other seven kinds of greenhouse gases emitted by man-made activities regulated in the "Kyoto Protocol" and the "Doha Amendment"
.
The basic information obtained by carbon monitoring includes three aspects: greenhouse gas emission intensity, carbon sink status and environmental concentration.
It is more than general environmental pollution monitoring, the data obtained is also different, and the accuracy of the monitoring data is higher
.
Conventional pollutant emission technologies and monitoring equipment cannot meet the needs of carbon monitoring
.

　　The main methods for quantifying carbon emission rights include nuclear algorithms and online monitoring systems (CEMS)
.
At present, China's carbon emission monitoring mainly adopts material verification algorithm and carbon balance theory to calculate greenhouse gas emission data, but the verification algorithm has a lot of human interference and large errors
.
In contrast, CEMS, which can automatically monitor in real time, is more in line with the needs of carbon trading market construction
.

　　With the opening of the carbon trading rights market and the country's stricter and stricter carbon emission control, whether it is self-examination of enterprises or supervision of relevant departments, it is necessary to re-equipped with appropriate equipment
.
This is undoubtedly good news for environmental monitoring equipment manufacturers, especially flue gas CEMS manufacturers that have a good foundation
.

　　The first is the expansion of the market.
According to research data, the current scale of the existing CEMS transformation market in China exceeds 10 billion yuan, which brings a lot of demand for the carbon monitoring equipment industry; secondly, driven by the policy, the progress of the large-scale application of carbon monitoring equipment will accelerate.
, The development of related industries will accelerate; finally, the monitoring requirements of carbon monitoring are higher than conventional environmental pollution monitoring, and environmental monitoring technology will be further improved under this demand.
This will test the research and development capabilities of environmental monitoring companies and will change China’s environment to a certain extent.
Monitor the situation where the industry is dominated by small and micro enterprises, and promote the development of the industry more healthily
.

　　In addition to environmental monitoring equipment manufacturers and monitoring system suppliers, third-party environmental monitoring service operators will also gain development opportunities
.
The effective supplement of government supervision by third-party environmental monitoring agencies will play a more important role in the environmental monitoring system
.
