Textile And Garment Industry "11Th Five-Year" Energy Conservation And Emission Reduction To Perfect Ending

　　 This year is our country's realization of " The 11th Five-Year In the last year of energy saving and emission reduction target, it is less than 3 months to reduce energy consumption per unit GDP by 20%, and time is pressing. And the rest of the time is also crucial for the textile and garment industry.

Five years ago, the "textile industry" 11th Five-Year "development plan" solemnly promised the industry's goal of reducing consumption and environmental protection targets. Now, the industry is making a final and active effort to perfect the "ending". In fact, the textile and garment industry has always regarded energy conservation and emission reduction as an important task and dare not slack off.

In 2008, the China Textile Industry Association made a voluntary visit to some cotton spinning, chemical fiber, printing and dyeing enterprises, focusing on the diagnosis of energy saving and emission reduction potential for dyeing and finishing and cotton spinning.

In 2009, the contents of "energy saving and emission reduction" appeared in the social responsibility report issued by ten domestic textile enterprises, such as copper cattle, red beans, Ruyi and good bird.

In July of this year, the China Textile Association launched the "implementation of responsibility for you and me" in the performance evaluation of China's textile and garment industry for energy saving and emission reduction. This is not only a major move to implement the CSC9000T CSR management system of China's textile and garment enterprises, but also the first full price chain energy saving and emission reduction operation launched by Chinese industry.

At present, Textile and garment industry What are the effects of energy saving and emission reduction? What are the difficulties encountered in the process of work promotion? enterprise Is there any experience to draw from?

Effectiveness and pressure

In the first four years of 11th Five-Year, the added value (comparable price) energy consumption of Enterprises above the scale of textile industry decreased by 39.27%, and the sewage discharge volume of unit value added (comparable price) dropped by 22%. The recycling of heat, medium water and fiber has begun to take shape.

According to media reports, in some of the more developed countries in Europe and the United States, "carbon labels" have appeared on clothing. A Japanese company's marketing means is to replace old clothes with old ones, and consumers can wear new clothes that are worn through old clothes. The old clothes are donated to difficult people or become new clothes after redesigning and processing. In Hongkong, the clothing Training Bureau of China has jointly established the Hongkong garment enterprise sustainable development alliance, and plans to carry out low-carbon process design in clothing production in the future, and turn it into carbon labels on clothing. This is the international effort for low carbon, environmental protection, energy saving and emission reduction.

Extending the perspective to the whole industry level, Hu Kehua, a researcher at the China Association of textile industry's social responsibility office, said that in May 2009, the relevant agreements of the European Commission amended the promulgation standard of textile and mattress environmental labels, requiring all product categories to meet certain ecological standards, such as the impact of climate change, energy and resource consumption, and so on, in order to get environmental labels (also known as "flower labels").

In the United States, at the end of June 2009, the US government passed the bill of "border adjustment tax" for import products. It first took the lead to clear the so-called "carbon tariffs" on imports of high carbon emissions products from 2020. In a deeper sense, it is a developed country that relies on its comprehensive environmental advantages to upgrade its environmental standards in a disguised way to impede its entry into the domestic market to protect its manufacturing industry. This new trade measure once again sounded the alarm for China's manufacturing industries to save energy and reduce emissions.

Hu Kehua said that although China's manufacturing level can fully meet the requirements of customers, but how to achieve "green" textile and garment products exports, industry associations are constantly exploring the promotion of energy conservation and emission reduction work, in order to deal with potential trade barriers that may arise in the future.

As we all know, the textile and garment industry is the traditional pillar industry and livelihood industry of our national economy. It is also one of the few obvious competitive industries in China. It plays an important role in absorbing social employment, earning foreign exchange and increasing farmers' income.

In July this year, 2010 China Textile and garment enterprises social responsibility report joint press conference, Sun Ruizhe, vice president of China Textile Industry Association, talked about social responsibility, said that social responsibility is becoming the "basic parameter" of the industry development trajectory and the "main variable" of enterprise management.

In line with the "parameters" and "variables", the new "parameters" such as "energy consumption and sewage discharge" have been added to the traditional indicators such as "output value, sales volume, sales revenue and export volume", and environmental indicators are included in the reference range.

Recently, from the China Textile Industry Association, it was learned that in the first four years of 11th Five-Year, the added value of the enterprises above the scale of textile industry (by comparable price) decreased by 39.27%, and the clean production technology and equipment as well as the reclaimed water reuse technology were vigorously promoted. The sewage discharge volume of the unit added value (comparable price) dropped by 22%, and the recycling of heat, medium water and fiber had begun to take shape.

It is easy to see that the proportion of energy consumption in industrial energy consumption, energy consumption per unit of added value, sewage discharge per unit of added value and so on in the textile industry have decreased significantly. The industry has made great progress in energy conservation and emission reduction.

　　 However, it should not be overlooked that the textile industry is also a resource dependent industry. From the latest research report provided by China Textile Economic Research Center, we can see that at present, the total energy consumption of China's textile industry accounts for 4.3% of the total industrial energy consumption of the whole country, and the water consumption of Enterprises above Designated Size accounts for 8.51% of the total industrial enterprises in the country. The amount of wastewater discharge accounts for 10% of the total industrial wastewater discharge in the country, of which 80% is the printing and dyeing wastewater, with an average recycling rate of only about 10%. Generally speaking, most textile enterprises have insufficient input in energy conservation and emission reduction, and the adoption rate of advanced technology and equipment is relatively low. It can be seen that the overall work of energy conservation and emission reduction in the textile and garment industry can not be relaxed.
