The proposed project is located in the cement factory of Yixing Shuanglong Cement Co. Ltd., Xinjie Town, Yixing City, south of Jiangsu Province. A pure low temperature waste heat generating unit will be constructed to utilize the waste heat from the head and the rear of the cement clinker production line (5000t/d) of this company. Thus it is a project of waste heat recovery and power generation in cement factory. The total installed capacity is 9MW, expected annual power generation is 59.50GWh and the net electricity available for sale to the grid is 54.14GWh per year.

Under the normal situation, only a part of the waste heat from cement production line was utilized to preheat the raw materials for production, and the rest were emitted to the atmosphere. The project activity is going to utilize the part of waste heat emitted to the atmosphere to generate electric power, which will not affect the existing heat recycling utilization in the cement production process.

The waste heat power plant will carry out paralleling with the current power system, and the operation mode is to parallel with the power grid but not to connect to the power grid, which is in order to substitute the part of electricity purchased from East China Power Grid during the cement production course. At the same time, CO2 emission during the corresponding power generation course could also be avoided, and GHG emission reductions will be carried out. The proposed project will replace a part of electric power produced by some fossil fuel power plants in East China Power Grid, consequently mitigate the CO2 emission; after the construction completed, the expected annual CO2 emission reductions is 45,133t; 451,331 tCO2 is expected within the 10 years credit period.

The project’s construction is in line with the choice of China energy industry’s prior area, it could be promote the sustainable development of host party country and the local area as follows:

Socio-economic benefits:

Promote the clean production of cement industry and the development of recycling economy, and increasing the sustainable capability;

Increasing the employment chances, and offering 18 jobs;

Benefiting for spreading the low temperature waste heat power generation technology in the cement industry;

This template shall not be altered. It shall be completed without modifying/adding headings or logo, format or font.

Environmental benefits:

Reduce effects of thermal pollution because of the utilizing of waste heat;

Mitigating the emission of GHG and other polluting materials comparing to normal power generation manner.
