General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out in the report of the 20th Party Congress that accelerating the green transformation of the development mode. Promoting the greening and decarbonization of economic and social development is a key part of achieving high-quality development. Implement a comprehensive conservation strategy, promote the conservation and intensive utilization of all types of resources, accelerate the construction of industrial solid waste recycling system, and improve the utilization rate of ore resource grade and associated resources. This thesis not only profoundly explains the green foundation for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has profound practical significance and far-reaching historical significance, but also for the green and low-carbon development of the mining industry points out the way forward, provides a fundamental guideline.
(hereinafter referred to as "Taiho"), as a leading enterprise in China's intelligent ore sorting equipment R&D and manufacturing industry, became the first enterprise to apply high-speed and high-resolution CCD technology in the field of sorting in 2008, and was successfully listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in 2017 (stock code 603656), greatly promoting the technological progress of China's mining industry. Stock code 603656), greatly promoting the technological progress of China's mining industry. As a pioneer enterprise in the field of intelligent ore sorting, Taihe Intelligence has obtained more than 400 patents and software copyrights, and has won more than 30 national, provincial and ministerial honors and awards.
Efficient utilization of mineral resources is imminent
The mining industry is a high-carbon emitting, high-environmental impact industry. The mineral sector accounts for 8 per cent of total global carbon dioxide emissions. More than 95 per cent of the energy, 80 per cent of the raw materials for industry and 70 per cent of the resources for agricultural production currently used by humans come from mineral resources. According to the World Bank's 2020 Minerals for Climate Action: Mineral Intensity for a Clean Energy Transition study, by 2050, the world will need to consume more than 3 billion tons of new energy minerals and metals. The current state of climate change is driving a low-carbon transition in human production and lifestyle. Major changes in industrial structure in the context of a low-carbon economy will prompt a further slowdown in the growth rate of demand for traditional mineral resources and rapid growth in the demand for clean energy and strategic new minerals.
With China's growing demand for minerals, the scale of mineral resources development has reached an unprecedented level, high-grade easy to select ore reserves are decreasing, low-grade difficult to select the proportion of ore into the selection of a significant increase in the cost of beneficiation, leading to a reduction in the economic benefits of enterprises. In addition to low-grade ore, China's metal mines produce about 3 billion tons of waste rock each year, the cumulative stockpile of more than 60 billion tons of waste rock, these stockpiles of waste rock mixed with a large number of ores in the border grade, resulting in a loss of resources and waste, and the oxidation of sulfide will produce acidic substances, heavy metal elements dissolved in the water will lead to heavy metal ions in the water column exceeds the standard, bringing serious environmental and safety issues.
China's "Smart" Manufacturing Leads Green Mines
In his report to the 20th Party Congress, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that promoting green development is an important initiative to promote harmonious coexistence between human beings and nature. Respecting nature, adapting to nature and protecting nature are the inherent requirements for building a modern socialist country in a comprehensive manner. We should actively and steadily promote carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, improve the regulation of the total amount and intensity of energy consumption, focus on controlling fossil energy consumption, and gradually shift to a system of "dual control" of the total amount and intensity of carbon emissions. To achieve the goal of carbon neutrality not only to optimize the energy structure, reduce the intensity of energy consumption, but also to improve the efficiency of resource utilization. From the perspective of resource development, it is necessary to improve the "three rates" (mining recovery rate, ore dressing recovery rate, comprehensive utilization rate) level in the mining link. The emergence of intelligent ore sorting technology, is the ability to innovate, for high-quality development to provide "hard core" support.
From the wavelength of 10-10m v-ray to the wavelength of 104m radio waves are in line with the common law of electromagnetic waves, and can be utilized for the selection. Mineral processing workers is based on the useful elements in the ore block by different ray irradiation, and the waste rock produced by the different reaction and research of different photoelectric picking method. Existing photoelectric picking technology in accordance with the electromagnetic spectrum of the sensor detection signal range, can be divided into color picking method, x-ray radiation method (x-ray fluorescence method and x-ray penetration method), radioactive picking method, near-infrared ray picking method, microwave heating picking method. Taihe Intelligence independently developed AI Smart Selection digital sorting technology, adding the concept of "machine vision". Under the complex ore sorting environment, the algorithm can adaptively adjust the structure of ore sorting model for different features of ore such as color, shape, texture, luster, thickness, etc. to achieve accurate identification.
In the industrial process of mine production, the principle of ore dressing is "more crushing and less grinding", "early harvesting" and "early throwing". If you can throw away the coarse-grained tailings or waste rock before the ore enters the crushing and grinding process, you can reduce the cost of subsequent transportation, grinding and sorting operations, reduce environmental pollution, and improve the economic efficiency and competitiveness of enterprises. "Green water and green mountains are golden mountains." On the occasion of the sixth anniversary of Taihe Intelligence's listing, Taihe Intelligence will continue to adhere to the implementation of the innovation-driven development strategy, adhere to self-research and unremitting innovation to help more mining enterprises realize green and low-carbon transformation, and help green development and build green mines.
