Consumption Structure

This paper uses statistical learning theory and big data analysis to study the energy consumption structure of China from qualitative and quantitative aspects during COVID-19. According to the domestic and foreign scholars’ research on the optimization of energy consumption structure, the carbon emission factor is considered in the optimization of energy consumption structure. Taking the minimum energy consumption cost and carbon dioxide emission as the objective function, the carbon dioxide emission is taken as the objective function, and the total energy consumption and various energy consumption proportions as the constraint conditions, the multi-objective planning method is used to evaluate the energy consumption structure of China. The optimization model of source consumption structure is analyzed, and the medium and long-term energy transformation path and optimization model under low-carbon constraints are studied. Combined with the experimental algorithms related to big data, it is concluded that China’s economic development mainly depends on a large amount of energy consumption during the COVID-19 period. On this basis, some suggestions are put forward to realize the sustainable development of China’s economy and energy.

From 1980 to 2012 there were 80% carbon dioxide emission from traditional fossil energy in the world, and the proportion reached 90% in China, which was the top of carbon dioxide emission and energy consumption. In order to release the pressure of short term energy-saving and emission-reduction, as well as implement energy system cleaning in long term, reversing the positive situation of energy structure adjustment and the advancing the continuous evolution of energy consumption structure will be the effective methods. This paper takes Hebei Province and the whole country as the research objects, analyzes the influence of energy consumption structure changes on carbon dioxide emission and the correlation effect between energy consumption structure and carbon dioxide emission intensity by constructing a correlation model between energy consumption structure and carbon dioxide emission intensity, discusses the effective strategies for the regional energy-saving and emission-reduction.

Ironmaking Process

Carbon included in coke and coal was used as a reduction agent and fuel in blast furnace (BF) ironmaking processes, which released large quantities of carbon dioxide (CO2). Minimizing the carbon consumption and CO2 output has always the goal of ironmaking research. In this paper, the reduction reactions of iron oxides by carbon, the gasification reaction of carbon by CO2, and the coupling reactions were studied by thermodynamic functions, which were derived from isobaric specific heat capacity. The reaction enthalpy at 298 K could not represent the heat value at the other reaction temperature, so the certain temperature should be confirmed by Gibbs frees energy and gas partial pressure. Based on Hess’ law, the energy consumption of the ironmaking process by carbon was calculated in detail. The decrease in the reduction temperature of solid metal iron has been beneficial in reducing the sensible heat required. When the volume ratio of CO to CO2 in the top gas of the furnace was given as 1.1–1.5, the coupling parameters of carbon gasification were 1.06–1.28 for Fe2O3, 0.71–0.85 for Fe3O4, 0.35–0.43 for FeO, respectively. With the increase in the coupling parameters, the volume fraction of CO2 decreased, and energy consumption and CO2 output increased. The minimum energy consumption and CO2 output of liquid iron production were in the reduction reactions with only CO2 generated, which were 9.952 GJ/t and 1265.854 kg/t from Fe2O3, 9.761 GJ/t and 1226.799 kg/t from Fe3O4, 9.007 GJ/t and 1107.368 kg/t from FeO, respectively. Compared with the current energy consumption of 11.65 GJ/t hot metal (HM) and CO2 output of 1650 kg/tHM of BF, the energy consumption and CO2 of ironmaking by carbon could reach lower levels by decreasing the coupled gasification reactions, lowering the temperature needed to generate solid Fe and adjusting the iron oxides to improve the iron content in the raw material. This article provides a simplified calculation method to understand the limit of energy consumption and CO2 output of ironmaking by carbon reduction iron oxides.

In the last decade, the increase of energy consumption that has multiplied carbondioxide emissions becomes world problems, especially in the developing countries undergoing industrialization to be developed ones like Indonesia. This aim of this study was to analyze the effect of fossil energy consumption, population growth, and consumption of renewable energy on carbon dioxide emission. The method used was multiple linear regression analysis with Ordinary Least Square approach using time series in the period of 1990 - 2014. The result showed that fossil energy consumption and population growth have a positive influence on carbon dioxide emission in Indonesia. Meanwhile, the consumption variable of renewable energy has a negative effect on the level of carbon dioxide emissions produced.
