Risk identification and suggestions for the development of electrolytic aluminum industry in Xinjiang under the background of"30-60"dual carbon
In recent years,by virtue of Xinjiang's abundant energy advantages,the electrolytic aluminum industry has developed rapidly and formed an in-tegrated development pattern of coal,electricity and aluminum.Aluminum electrolysis is a high energy-consuming and high carbon emission industry,with a consumption of about 0.4 t carbon material for each ton of electrolytic aluminum produced,while the carbon dioxide emission generated therein a-mounts to 1.8 t.Therefore,it is necessary to take corresponding measures to achieve the goal of carbon neutrality.This paper mainly describes problems of the electrolytic aluminum industry in Xinjiang,such as single energy structure,high transportation cost and imperfect electrolytic aluminum industry chain,identifies and analyzes challenges and risks for the development of the electrolytic aluminum industry in Xinjiang under the background of carbon peak and carbon neutrality,puts forward the green and low-carbon development paths and suggestions for the electrolytic aluminum industry in Xinjiang,thus providing references for Xinjiang's electrolytic aluminum industry to achieve leapfrog and high-quality development.
