Located in the northern Gulf Economic Zone in Guangxi Fangchenggang 10 million tons of steel base project Nowadays the preliminary work is in full swing. China’s Ministry of Environmental Protection has also experts on the content of this project early technical evaluation of the EIA.

Fangchenggang 10 million tons of steel base project in central China’s largest steel companies by the Wuhan Iron and Steel Group and Liuzhou Iron and Steel Group joint venture of the total investment of more than 600 billion yuan, the construction scale is 10 million tons. Dai Yi, vice mayor of Fangchenggang City, said the construction of the project, realized with Wuhan Iron and Steel Liu Gang Substantial restructuring.

In fact, the Wuhan Iron and Steel and Liuzhou Steel’s “marriage”, the Chinese steel industry, nothing new. This year, the Chinese steel industry usher in a major restructuring wave.

2008 6 28, has played a leading domestic steel production boss position with Guangzhou Iron and Steel Group, Baosteel Group, Guangdong Shaoguan Iron & Steel Group restructuring, the establishment of the Guangdong Iron and Steel Group Co., Ltd.. Registered capital of nearly 36 billion yuan, of which Baosteel Group invested nearly 29 billion yuan in cash. Baosteel steel industry restructuring in Guangdong Province opened a regional restructuring of China’s steel industry, a large screen. Baosteel chairman Xu Lejiang said this was the reorganization of Baosteel “initial results”, will push forward the China Iron and Steel industrial restructuring and industry upgrading.

In just two days after the reorganization of the Chinese steel industry Zaigua whirlwind. June 30, Tangshan Iron and Steel Re-established with the Hebei Handan Iron and Steel Group Co., Ltd., the new company become one of China’s largest steel group production, steel production of more than 30 million tons.

Steel industry restructuring this year, why the wind blowing? Zhang Xiaogang, president of China Steel Industry Association, had said in an interview that China has been greatly increased concentration of iron and steel industry, but the concentration has been reduced year by year trend, the top ten iron and steel production accounts for the proportion of total output by 2004 34.7% all the way down to 29.4% in 2006. China Steel has to have the time of reorganization.

“Re the one hand, to increase industry concentration, on the other hand can optimize the industrial layout, adjust the structure of iron and steel industry. For example, Wuhan and Liuzhou Steel reorganization, in which there is a lot of mystery.” Dai Yi said.

His analysis, development from a strategic shift to the coastal mainland, the first of cost. Fangchenggang as China’s southwest coastline of the most deep-water harbor, Brazil shipping iron ore from the Wuhan Iron and Steel Division Fangchenggang shore and from shore than the difference in the 200 yuan per ton of freight over. Along with market factors. Fangchenggang 10 million-ton steel base not only to the advantage of excellent export terminals, but also covering South West and South regions. Another energy saving reasons, the state required the reorganization of Wuhan Steel and Liuzhou Steel is out of the premise behind the ability of more than 540 million tons of iron, steel making capacity of 900 tons.

“Wuhan Steel and Liuzhou Steel’s restructuring, but also promote the development of Gulf Economic Zone, to support countries in the China – ASEAN Free Trade Area framework, the open Gulf Economic Zone development strategy.” Fangchenggang Port Group Co., Ltd. Xie Yi, general manager, said.

Learned, Fangchenggang steel base project an officially put into production, annual sales income of 34 billion yuan to provide 2.5 million jobs. Also around this project, nearly 150 projects are under negotiation and downstream matching. Guangxi Academy of Social Sciences Research Associate, visible light

warned: “China’s steel industry restructuring enhance the international competitiveness of the market is indeed a good thing, but also to prevent the homogenization of competition. Fangchenggang steel base project such as the Guangdong Iron and Steel Group subsidiary Zhanjiang Steel geographically very close, how to make product differentiation, to avoid vicious competition in the market worthy. “

Over the last few decades, there has been significant progress in the development of international food safety standards. Many companies refer to the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) guidelines in ensuring food safety and quality at the manufacturing plant level. However, many retailers and buyers in the food industry supply chain have slightly differing requirements, depending on their particular circumstances. For example, US retailers must comply with onerous and very specific food safety requirements laid down by the FDA, and they pass these on to their overseas suppliers, making supplying the US market sometimes costly for suppliers.

The impact of ISO 22000

Given worries about food safety and the emerging standards, ISO, the international body responsible for standardization, decided to produce a food safety standard covering the entire food supply chain. The ISO 22000 was launched in 2005 in order to meet this requirement. ISO 22000 has become one of the most recognized global food safety standards. It lists over 60 codes of practice and guideline documents associated with the food sector.
An informal survey on the impact of ISO 22000 on various sectors was conducted in 2008.

As the table above shows, ISO 22000 has yet to be adopted widely in the retail sector, but a significant number of catering establishments from small restaurants to large hotels, and school cafeterias have found the standard to be a useful tool.

The global nuclear industry is expected to witness a significant number of planned plant shut downs in the years ahead, either because the life spans of the presently operating reactors are coming to an end or because of forced closures. This number is expected to be around 100 over the next few decades. However, the years 2014 and 2016 will see an increased number of planned shut downs, with 10 closures in each year.

Europe is the biggest market for commercial nuclear power plant decommissioning. The region accounts for nearly 90% of global nuclear decommissioning. Russia and the UK are the largest markets with many reactor units planned for shut down over the period 20102045.

The planned shut down of commercial nuclear power plants will have tremendous impact on the power industry globally. It is expected that around 100 of the presently nuclear power plants will be shut down in the next few decades, reducing the installed nuclear power capacity by more than 50 GWe.
