Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of carbon footprint analysis technology, and in particular to a method for collecting and processing data on the carbon footprint of cement products based on their entire life cycle. Background Technology

[0002] The global climate system is currently undergoing significant changes. Carbon dioxide is considered the largest anthropogenic greenhouse gas, and its emissions can be largely controlled by humans. Therefore, carbon dioxide has become the most concerning greenhouse gas, and its emissions are commonly referred to as carbon dioxide emissions, or simply carbon emissions. Currently, the total carbon dioxide emissions from the entire construction process are approximately 5 billion tons, accounting for 47% of the national total carbon emissions. Of this, the carbon dioxide emissions from the building materials production stage of the entire housing construction process are approximately 1.7 billion tons, accounting for 16% of the national total and 42% of the total carbon emissions from the entire process. Cement is the most widely used material in construction and infrastructure, and it emits carbon dioxide throughout its entire life cycle. Therefore, accurate, complete, and efficient collection and processing of data from the cement production stage is fundamental to calculating the carbon footprint of cement products. Currently, the collection of carbon footprint data for cement products directly obtains the output of cement products and the raw materials and energy required for cement production within a certain period, without distinguishing between cement product types and important processes in the cement production process. This collection and processing method is rather vague, leading to data gaps and inaccurate calculations. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is: in order to address the relatively vague technical issues in the existing methods for collecting and processing the carbon footprint of cement products, this invention provides a method for collecting and processing the carbon footprint of cement products based on the entire life cycle. By improving the method for collecting and processing the carbon footprint of cement products and using decision trees to guide the collection and processing of carbon footprint data of cement products, the efficiency of collecting carbon footprint data, the accuracy and completeness of data processing can be improved.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is: a method for data collection and processing of the carbon footprint of cement products based on the entire life cycle, comprising the following steps:

[0005] S1. Divide the life cycle of cement products into the ore mining and processing stage, clinker calcination stage, grinding stage, and packaging and shipping stage.

[0006] S2. Obtain the initial cement production stage of the cement product manufacturing enterprise. If the initial cement production stage is the ore mining and processing stage, then start from step S3. If the initial cement production stage is the clinker calcination stage, then start from step S4. If the initial cement production stage is the grinding stage, then start from step S5.

[0007] S3. Obtain the decision tree for data collection and processing in the ore mining and processing stages of cement products, and output the lifecycle list or secondary data of the ore mining and processing stages.

[0008] S4. Obtain the decision tree for data collection and processing of cement clinker calcination stage, and output the life cycle list of clinker calcination stage;

[0009] S5. Obtain the decision tree for data collection and processing in the cement product grinding stage, and output the lifecycle list of the grinding stage;

[0010] S6. Obtain the decision tree for data collection and processing during the packaging and shipping stages of cement products, and output a lifecycle list or secondary data for the packaging and shipping stages.

[0011] Therefore, in the process of collecting and processing carbon footprint data of cement products, data collection and processing should be carried out according to the actual production situation of cement production enterprises. The collection requirements and processing methods for data at each stage of cement products should be clarified, and the life cycle inventory of cement products at each stage should be calculated. This can improve the efficiency of data collection, the accuracy and completeness of data processing of carbon footprint of cement products. At the same time, data collection and processing based on decision-making can compare the carbon footprint results of different cement product production enterprises and perform corresponding analysis and processing on the carbon emission data of different cement product production enterprises.

[0012] Further, S2 includes the following steps:

[0013] S2-1. Obtain information on the clinker production lines, owned mines, and ore purchases of cement production enterprises;

[0014] S2-2. If the cement product manufacturer has a clinker production line and its own mine, then proceed to step S3.

[0015] S2-3. If a cement product manufacturer has a clinker production line but no mine of its own, and the purchased ore does not need to be processed, but the purchased ore is a key category, then obtain the life cycle inventory or carbon footprint data of the purchased ore, and at the same time obtain the transportation method and mileage of the purchased ore, and then proceed to step S4.

[0016] S2-4. If a cement product manufacturer has a clinker production line but no mine of its own, and the purchased ore does not need to be processed, but the purchased ore is not a critical category, then the secondary data of the ore shall be used, and the transportation method and mileage of the purchased ore shall be obtained at the same time, and then step S4 shall be executed.

[0017] S2-5. If a cement product manufacturing enterprise has a clinker production line but no mine of its own, and the purchased ore needs to be processed, then collect the data of the purchased ore processing process, calculate the life cycle list of the purchased ore processing process, and if the purchased ore is a critical category, then obtain the life cycle list or carbon footprint data of the purchased ore, and at the same time obtain the transportation method and mileage of the purchased ore, and then execute step S4.

[0018] S2-6. If a cement product manufacturing enterprise has a clinker production line but no mine of its own, and the purchased ore needs to be processed, then collect the processing process data of the purchased ore, calculate the life cycle list of the processing process of the purchased ore, and if the purchased ore is not a critical category, then use the secondary data of the ore, and at the same time obtain the transportation method and mileage of the purchased ore, and then execute step S4.

[0019] S2-7. If a cement product manufacturer does not have a clinker production line, but purchasing clinker is a key category, then obtain the life cycle inventory or carbon footprint data of the purchased clinker, and at the same time obtain the transportation method and mileage of the purchased clinker, and then proceed to step S5.

[0020] S2-8. If a cement product manufacturer does not have a clinker production line, but the purchased clinker is not a critical category, then the secondary data for that clinker should be used, and the transportation method and mileage of the purchased clinker should be obtained simultaneously before proceeding to step S5. Therefore, in the process of collecting and processing cement product carbon footprint data, the initial stage of cement product data collection and processing is clarified based on the production process composition of the cement product manufacturer.

[0021] Further, step S3 includes the following steps:

[0022] S3-1. Obtain data on ore mining and ore processing from cement production enterprises;

[0023] Ore mining process:

[0024] S3-2. If the cement product manufacturing enterprise has detailed data for the ore mining process, then collect the data of the ore mining process, calculate the life cycle list of ore mining, and then execute step S3-5, step S3-6, or step S3-7.

[0025] S3-3. If the cement product manufacturing enterprise does not have detailed data for the ore mining process, and the ore mining process is a critical category, then collect the data on ore mining and return to step S3-2.

[0026] S3-4. If the cement product manufacturer does not have detailed data for the ore mining process, and the ore mining process is not a critical category, then use the secondary data of the ore mining process, and then execute step S3-5, step S3-6, or step S3-7.

[0027] Ore processing:

[0028] S3-5. If the cement product manufacturing enterprise has detailed data for the ore processing process, then collect the data of the ore processing process, calculate the life cycle list of the processed ore, and then execute step S4.

[0029] S3-6. If the cement production enterprise does not have detailed data for the ore processing process, and the ore processing process is a critical category, then collect the data on the processed ore and return to step S3-5.

[0030] S3-7. If the cement product manufacturer does not have detailed data for the ore processing process, and the ore processing process is not a critical category, then secondary data from the ore processing process should be used, and step S4 should be executed. Therefore, in the process of collecting and processing carbon footprint data for cement products, data collection and processing are carried out based on the cement manufacturer's free mines, clarifying the data collection requirements and processing methods for the ore mining and processing stages of cement products, and calculating the lifecycle inventory of the ore mining and processing stages of cement products.

[0031] Further, step S4 includes the following steps:

[0032] S4-1. Obtain data on fuel preparation, raw meal preparation, clinker calcination, waste heat power generation, and clinker shipment from cement production enterprises;

[0033] Fuel preparation process:

[0034] S4-2. If the cement product manufacturing enterprise has detailed data for the fuel preparation process, then collect the fuel preparation data, calculate the actual raw material consumption, transportation mileage and power consumption data of the fuel used for the clinker, and output result 1, and then execute step S4-8 or step S4-9.

[0035] S4-3. If the cement product manufacturer does not have detailed data for the fuel preparation process, and the fuel preparation process is a critical category, then collect the fuel preparation data and return to step S4-2.

[0036] S4-4. If the cement product manufacturer does not have detailed data for the fuel preparation process, and the fuel preparation process is not a critical category, then collect the necessary data for fuel preparation, output result 1, and then execute step S4-8 or step S4-9.

[0037] Raw material preparation process:

[0038] S4-5. If the cement product manufacturer has detailed data for the raw meal preparation process, collect the raw meal preparation data, calculate the actual raw material consumption, transportation mileage and power consumption data of the raw meal used for the clinker, and output result 2, then execute step S4-8 or step S4-9.

[0039] S4-6. If the cement product manufacturer does not have detailed data for the raw meal preparation process, and the raw meal preparation process is a critical category, then collect the raw meal preparation data and return to step S4-6.

[0040] S4-7. If the cement product manufacturer does not have detailed data for the raw meal preparation process, and the raw meal preparation process is not a critical category, then collect the necessary data for raw meal preparation, output result 2, and then execute step S4-8 or step S4-9.

[0041] Clinker firing process:

[0042] S4-8. If the cement product manufacturer has detailed data for the clinker calcination process, collect the clinker calcination data, calculate the life cycle list of the clinker calcination process, and then execute step S4-10 or step S4-11.

[0043] S4-9. If the cement product manufacturer does not have detailed data for the clinker calcination process, then collect the clinker calcination data and return to step S4-8.

[0044] Waste heat power generation process:

[0045] S4-10. If the cement product manufacturing enterprise has a waste heat power generation unit, collect the data on the grid-connected power generation of the waste heat power generation unit, calculate the grid power consumption of each process, update the grid power consumption to the life cycle list of each process, and then execute step S4-12 or step S4-13 or step S4-14 or step S4-15 or step S4-16.

[0046] S4-11. If the cement product manufacturing enterprise does not have a waste heat power generation unit, then proceed to step S4-12, step S4-13, step S4-14, step S4-15, or step S4-16.

[0047] Clinker shipping process:

[0048] S4-12. If a cement product manufacturer does not produce cement but has detailed data for the clinker shipping process, then collect the clinker shipping data, calculate the clinker shipping lifecycle list, and end the process.

[0049] S4-13. If the cement product manufacturer does not produce cement and has no detailed data for the clinker shipping process, but the clinker shipping process is a critical category, then collect the clinker shipping data and return to step S4-12.

[0050] S4-14. If a cement product manufacturer does not produce cement and there is no detailed data for the clinker shipment process, but clinker shipment is not a critical category, then the secondary data for the clinker shipment process shall be used and the process shall end.

[0051] S4-15. If a cement product manufacturer produces cement and sells some clinker externally, then return to step S1-12, S4-13, or S4-14, do not execute the end step, and execute step S5.

[0052] S4-16. If a cement product manufacturer produces cement but does not sell some of the clinker, then proceed to step S5. Therefore, in step S4-4, since the fuel preparation process is part of the entire clinker calcination process and shares equipment with it, involving numerous allocation issues and being difficult to operate in practice, only accurate data needs to be collected; it cannot be completely separated from the clinker calcination process. Similarly, in step S4-7, since the raw material preparation process is part of the entire clinker calcination process and shares equipment with it, involving numerous allocation issues and being difficult to operate in practice, only accurate data needs to be collected; it cannot be completely separated from the clinker calcination process. In step S4-12, since cement product manufacturers do not produce cement, steps S5 and S6 are unnecessary. In step S4-14, since cement product manufacturers do not produce cement, steps S5 and S6 are unnecessary. During the collection and processing of cement product carbon footprint data, data collection and processing are conducted according to the calcination process of cement production enterprises. The collection requirements and processing methods for extreme data on cement product clinker calcination are clarified, and the lifecycle inventory of the cement product clinker calcination stage is calculated.

[0053] Further, step S5 includes the following steps:

[0054] S5-1. Obtain data on various types of cement from cement production enterprises;

[0055] S5-2. If cement product manufacturers can obtain detailed data on various types of cement, they can collect grinding data for various types of cement, calculate the life cycle list of cement grinding, and then proceed to step S6.

[0056] S5-3. If cement product manufacturers cannot obtain detailed data on various types of cement, and these types of cement are key categories, then collect grinding data for various types of cement and return to step S5-2.

[0057] S5-4. If cement manufacturers cannot obtain detailed data on various types of cement, and these types of cement are not critical categories, then collect cement grinding data, calculate the lifecycle inventory of cement grinding, and proceed to step S6. Therefore, in the process of collecting and processing cement product carbon footprint data, data collection and processing are carried out according to the grinding process of cement manufacturers, clarifying the collection requirements and processing methods for cement product grinding stage data, and calculating the lifecycle inventory of cement product grinding stages.

[0058] Further, step S6 includes the following steps:

[0059] S6-1. Obtain energy consumption data for cement packaging and shipping from cement production enterprises;

[0060] S6-2. If the energy consumption data for cement packaging and shipping is included in the grinding stage, and detailed process data for cement packaging and shipping cannot be extracted, then calculate the cement lifecycle inventory including the packaging and shipping stages, and end the process.

[0061] S6-3. If the energy consumption data for cement packaging and shipping is included in the grinding stage, but detailed process data for cement packaging and shipping can be extracted, then collect the cement packaging and shipping data, calculate the life cycle inventory of cement packaging and shipping, and end the process.

[0062] S6-4. If the energy consumption data for cement packaging and shipping is not included in the grinding stage, but there is detailed data for the packaging and shipping stage, then collect the cement packaging and shipping data, calculate the life cycle inventory of cement packaging and shipping, and end the process.

[0063] S6-5. If the energy consumption data for cement packaging and shipping is not included in the grinding stage, and there is no detailed data for the packaging and shipping process, and the packaging and shipping process is a critical category, then collect the data for cement packaging and shipping and return to step S6-4.

[0064] S6-6. If energy consumption data for cement packaging and shipping is not included in the grinding stage, and there is no detailed data for the packaging and shipping process, and the packaging and shipping process is not a critical category, then secondary data for the cement packaging and shipping process should be used, and the process should end. Therefore, in the process of collecting and processing carbon footprint data for cement products, data collection and processing are carried out based on the packaging and shipping processes of cement product enterprises. The collection requirements and processing methods for data in the cement product packaging and shipping stages are clarified, and a lifecycle inventory of the cement product packaging and shipping stages is calculated.

[0065] Furthermore, in steps S3, S4, S5, and S6, the data calculation for the lifecycle inventory first requires determining the time range T and dividing it into time units t. Then, based on the divided time units, system boundaries, and data collection requirements, all data is organized into n parts and calculated.

[0066] The calculation process involves the following two scenarios:

[0067] Scenario 1:

[0068] The collected data is complete, and the consumption α of raw materials and energy for each data set is calculated based on the functional or declared units of each process. i Then calculate the geometric mean A of multiple data sets. g and geometric standard deviation A gsd Or the arithmetic mean A m and arithmetic standard deviation A sd The calculation formula is as follows:

[0069] The unit product input α and consumption α in the i-th data set i The calculation formula is:

[0070]

[0071] Input the geometric mean A of α g The calculation formula is:

[0072]

[0073] Input the geometric standard deviation A of α gsd The calculation formula is:

[0074]

[0075] Input the arithmetic mean A of α m The calculation formula is:

[0076]

[0077] The arithmetic standard deviation A of input α sd The calculation formula is:

[0078]

[0079] Where: α i The unit, M α,i unit, A g unit, A m The unit and A sd The units of M are all related to the properties of α. α,i M represents the consumption of input α in the i-th data set. pro,iA represents the output of the product in the i-th data set, in kg. gsd The unit is dimensionless;

[0080] Scenario 2:

[0081] The collected data is incomplete. Calculate the consumption of raw materials and energy based on the functional or declared units of each process, and the unit product input α consumption α within the time range T. input The calculation formula is:

[0082]

[0083] Where: n = T / t, α input The unit and M a,total The units of M are all related to the properties of α. a,total M represents the total consumption of input α within the time range T. pro,total This represents the total output of products within a time frame T, expressed in kg. Therefore, in the process of collecting and processing the carbon footprint of cement products, a method for calculating the life cycle inventory data of cement products is provided. This method is applicable to calculating the consumption of raw materials and energy for each process within a functional unit or life unit, obtaining accurate initial data that includes dispersion, and improving the accuracy of life cycle assessment results.

[0084] Furthermore, in step S4, the actual consumption β input during clinker production in the i-th data set of the fuel preparation process is β. i The calculation formula is:

[0085]

[0086] Where: β i The unit and M β,i The units of M are all related to the properties of β. β,i M represents the consumption of input β in the i-th data set. fuel,i M represents the fuel production in the i-th data set, in kg. cons,i This represents the actual fuel consumption during clinker production in the i-th data set, expressed in kg.

[0087] In step S4, the actual consumption of input γ during the clinker production process in the i-th data set of the raw material preparation process is γ. i The calculation formula is:

[0088]

[0089] Wherein: γ i Units, N γ,i The units are all related to the properties of γ, N γ,iN represents the consumption of input γ in the i-th data set. raw,i N represents the yield of raw materials in the i-th data set, in kg. cons,i This represents the actual consumption of raw materials during clinker production in the i-th data set, expressed in kg. Therefore, in the process of collecting and processing carbon footprint data for cement products, this paper provides a method for calculating the actual consumption of raw materials and energy during fuel preparation and raw material preparation, avoiding data errors and inaccuracies caused by directly using raw material consumption data.

[0090] Furthermore, in step S4, the calculation of carbon dioxide emissions during clinker calcination is divided into two parts:

[0091] Part One:

[0092] The calculation formula for CO2 emissions from the combustion of non-biochar in fossil fuels and alternative fuels during clinker calcination is as follows:

[0093] CO2 emissions from the combustion of the jth type of fossil fuel during clinker calcination (CE) fossil,j The calculation formula is:

[0094]

[0095] Non-biocarbon emissions (CE) from the jth alternative fuel during clinker calcination alter,j The calculation formula is:

[0096] CE alter,j =M alter,j *Qnet alter,ar,j *EF j *ε j , (j = 1, 2, ..., n);

[0097] Emissions from fuel combustion during clinker calcination (CE) fuel,emission The calculation formula is:

[0098] CE fuel,emission =CE fossil,j +CE alter,j ;

[0099] Among them: CE fossil,j Units, CE alter,j Units and CE fuel,emission The units are all kgCO2e, M fossil,j Qnet represents the consumption of the j-th fossil fuel during clinker combustion, expressed in tons (t). fossil,ar,j This represents the received minimum calorific value of the j-th fossil fuel during clinker combustion, expressed in GJ / t, CC. jThis represents the carbon content per unit calorific value of the j-th fossil fuel during clinker combustion, expressed in kgC / GJ, OF. j The carbon oxidation rate of the j-th fossil fuel during clinker combustion is expressed as a percentage (%). 44 / 12 represents the conversion factor from C to CO2, M. alter,j Qnet represents the consumption of the j-th alternative fuel during clinker calcination, in tons (t). alter,ar,j EF represents the received basic calorific value of the j-th alternative fuel during clinker combustion, expressed in GJ / t. j ε represents the CO2 emission factor of the j-th alternative fuel during clinker combustion, expressed in kgCO2 / GJ. j This indicates the non-biomass carbon content of the j-th alternative fuel during clinker calcination, expressed in %;

[0100] Part Two:

[0101] The calculation formula for CO2 generated during the clinker calcination process from the decomposition of raw material carbonates and the calcination of non-fuel carbon is as follows:

[0102] Clinker calcination process raw material carbonate decomposition emissions (CE) process,1 The calculation formula is:

[0103]

[0104] Non-fuel carbon emissions during clinker calcination (CE) process,2 The calculation formula is:

[0105]

[0106] Total CE emissions from raw material carbonate decomposition and non-fuel carbon calcination during clinker calcination process The calculation formula is:

[0107] CE process =CE process,1 +CE process,2 ;

[0108] Among them, CE process,1 Units, CE process,2 Units and CE process The units for all values ​​are kgCO2e and P. ck P represents the clinker yield during the clinker calcination process, expressed in kg. ckd This indicates the weight of dust from the kiln head exhaust stack during clinker calcination, expressed in kg (P). bpd This indicates the weight of dust emitted during the kiln bypass ventilation in the clinker firing process, in kg. cao This indicates the calcium oxide content in clinker, expressed as a percentage (CK). cao,nuThis indicates the content of calcium oxide in clinker that is not derived from carbonate decomposition, expressed in %. CK mgo This indicates the magnesium oxide content in the clinker, expressed as a percentage (CK). mgo,nu This indicates the content of magnesium oxide in the clinker that is not derived from carbonate decomposition. 44 / 56 represents the conversion factor from CaO to CO2, 44 / 40 represents the conversion factor from MgO to CO2, and RA represents the amount of raw meal consumed during clinker calcination, in kg. C This indicates the non-fuel carbon content in the raw materials, expressed as a percentage. Therefore, in the process of collecting and processing carbon footprint data for cement products, a method for calculating carbon dioxide emissions from the decomposition of fossil fuels and carbonates in the clinker calcination process is provided. This makes the calculation of the process with the highest carbon dioxide emissions more scientific, reasonable, and comparable.

[0109] Furthermore, in step S4, the calculation of the power grid consumption of cement production enterprises with waste heat power generation units includes the following steps:

[0110] Step 1:

[0111] Clearly define the processes by which waste heat power generation is used in production, and collect relevant statistical data on electricity consumption in these processes;

[0112] Step Two:

[0113] The electricity consumption of the power grid in the m-th production process is E grid,m The calculation formula is:

[0114]

[0115] Step 3:

[0116] Step 2E grid,m The computational structure is returned to the production process in step one;

[0117] Among them: E grid,m The unit is kWh, E st,m This represents the electricity statistics for the m-th production process, in kWh (E). heat This represents the electricity generated by waste heat power generation connected to the grid, in kWh (E). st,tatal This indicates the total electricity consumption of production processes using waste heat power, measured in kWh. Therefore, in the process of collecting and processing carbon footprint data for cement products, this method provides a calculation method for the grid electricity consumption of cement production enterprises using waste heat power generation units, avoiding an overestimation of carbon dioxide emissions from the use of waste heat power.

[0118] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0119] In the process of collecting and processing carbon footprint data of cement products, data collection and processing are carried out based on the actual production situation of cement production enterprises. The collection requirements and processing methods for data at each stage of cement products are clarified, and the life cycle inventory of cement products at each stage is calculated. This can improve the efficiency of data collection, accuracy and completeness of data processing of cement product carbon footprint. At the same time, data collection and processing based on decision-making can compare the carbon footprint results of different cement product production enterprises and perform corresponding analysis and processing on the carbon emission data of different cement product production enterprises.

[0130] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a method for collecting and processing data on the carbon footprint of cement products based on their entire life cycle includes the following steps:

[0186] S5-4. If cement manufacturers cannot obtain detailed data on various types of cement, and these types of cement are not critical categories, then collect cement grinding data, calculate the lifecycle inventory of cement grinding, and proceed to step S6.

[0188] Specifically, in step S5-2, the cement has a specific type, such as PO52.5, PO42.5, M32.5; in step S5-4, the cement does not have a specific type.

[0189] In this embodiment, step S6 includes the following steps:

If energy consumption data for cement packaging and shipping is not included in the grinding stage, and there is no detailed data for the packaging and shipping process, and the packaging and shipping process is not a critical category, then secondary data for the cement packaging and shipping process should be used, and the process should end. Therefore, in the process of collecting and processing carbon footprint data for cement products, data collection and processing are carried out based on the packaging and shipping processes of cement product enterprises. The collection requirements and processing methods for data in the cement product packaging and shipping stages are clarified, and a lifecycle inventory of the cement product packaging and shipping stages is calculated.

[0196] Specifically, in step S6-3, the lifecycle system boundary begins with cement leaving the warehouse and ends with the shipment of bagged or bulk cement.

Data collected on bagged cement packaging and shipment includes: bagged cement production, cement consumption, packaging bag consumption, and electricity consumption in the packaging process. Data collected on bulk cement packaging and shipment includes: bulk cement production, cement consumption, and electricity consumption in the shipment process. Data calculation: The lifecycle list is calculated based on the collected data and the determined functional unit or declared unit. In step S6-4, the data collected on cement packaging and shipment is the same as that collected in step S6-3.

[0197] In this embodiment, in steps S3, S4, S5, and S6, the data calculation of the lifecycle inventory first requires determining the time range T and dividing it into time units t.

[0243] The calculation of the electricity consumption of cement production enterprises with waste heat power generation units includes the following steps:

[0244] Step 1:

[0245] Clearly define the processes by which waste heat power generation is used in production, and collect relevant statistical data on electricity consumption in these processes;
