* * * * Technology-for-efficiency can be achieved at three levels: (1) Further explore the efficiency of some sophisticated technologies and promote the application of these technologies to tap into their due potentials for energy-saving. According to ISA’s benchmarking analysis of the energy efficiency in the key large and medium-sized enterprises, the same energy-saving equipment may have different performance, for instance, some enterprises can recover as much as 50 kwh per ton TRT while some can only recover 30 kwh. What’s more, China’s overall energy-saving capacity is lagging far behind the global advanced level. (2) Promote industrialization of some new energy-saving technologies and their application within the industry (3) Research and develop some leading-edge energy-efficient technologies used as technological backup and support. * * During the 12th Five-Year Plan period, the iron steel industry in collaboration with the nonferrous, chemical, power and construction material sectors leverage on their own advantages to develop circular economy, promote efficient application of the by-products of the iron steel industry, and achieve low-carbon development in all these sectors. In 2011, a total of 240 million tons of blast-furnace slag and 93 million tons of steel slag were produced. * * * Low-carbon production: a production mode featuring low energy consumption, low waste and low emission and aiming at minimum GHG emission during production. Low-carbon consumption: minimum impact upon the environment (CO2 emission reduction) and maximum efficiency of resources utilization in the product lifecycle from placement to scrap processing to optimize both the economic and social benefits of a business. The iron steel industry is typically resource and energy-intensive Resources: consume a lot of iron ores and ferroalloys to produce key raw materials (steel products), but discharge a lot of wastes at the same time. Energy: the “high-carbon
