·Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission: this year will focus on reducing the intensity of motor vehicle use

The heavy polluted weather that lasted for two days in the last two months of the year quickly drove down Beijing's total average score on air pollution control. Air pollution is not only the most concerned issue of the people, but also one of the most urgent problems for the government. Yesterday, Lu Yan, director of the Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission, said that Beijing will make great efforts to reduce the intensity of motor vehicle use and control the exhaust emissions of motor vehicles, and further improve the standards for Beijing automobile oil. "Going to the country to go."

If you only look at the effectiveness of Beijing in the first 10 months of air pollution control, it will undoubtedly be a beautiful "transcript." According to data from the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, the cumulative concentration of PM2.5 in the first 10 months of last year was 69.7 μg/m3, a year-on-year decrease of 21.8%, much higher than the target of 5% set at the beginning of the year. However, the situation changed suddenly in the last two months. The six times of heavy air pollution caused the annual average concentration of PM2.5 in Beijing to rebound rapidly, and the decline rate also shrank from 21.8% to 6.2%.

In response to questions from the public about air pollution control, Lu Yan said that this year and for some time to come, Beijing will step up efforts to control loose coal, motor vehicle exhaust emissions, and industrial emissions.

Zhang Dawei, director of the Municipal Environmental Monitoring Center, once said that heavy air pollution occurred in Beijing, especially during the rapid climb of PM2.5 concentration. The contribution of coal combustion can reach about 60%. For the control of loose coal, Lu Yan said that Beijing has reduced the sales and combustion of 11 million tons of coal in the first three years, and coal control will remain the key task of the city this year and during the 13th Five-Year Plan period. 400 villages have concentrated on solving the problem of loose coal pollution.

In Lu Yan’s view, in addition to loose coal, another important factor contributing to air pollution is vehicle exhaust emissions. He said that it is very important to reduce the exhaust emissions of automobiles. The Beijing Municipal Government will further raise the standard of automobile oil consumption and go to the “National Six” on the basis of “National Five”. It is understood that the cooperation mechanism has been established in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei and surrounding areas. At present, Beijing and Tianjin have fully implemented the latest “National Five” standards, and Hebei is also actively coordinating the promotion of various departments. An analyst said that the sulfur content of the “National Five” oil is one-fifth of that of the national four, and the pollution emissions will be greatly reduced.

Lu Yan finally said that including the factors that formed PM2.5, Beijing has identified clear indicators during the 13th Five-Year Plan period, and these indicators are binding. "We will break down the annual tasks according to these indicators and focus on implementation to ensure that these indicators can be achieved by 2020." Lu Yan said.

Made from an alloy of copper and zinc, our LPG Ball Valves offer malleability and corrosion resistance, with added durability. LPG Ball valves are stronger and harder than copper, yet more malleable than steel and iron, allowing them to resist cracking. They can withstand extremely high temperatures, and will not rust.
