CDM Project Design for Introducing Coke Dry Quenching Equipment in Shanxi Province of China

Abstract

This paper provides the design of a Clean Development Mechanism project at the coke industry in Shanxi province, China. The target of this project is to reduce emission of carbon dioxide by installing coke dry quenching equipment into mechanical coke ovens of Shanxi Antai Group Co., Ltd. This paper demonstrates how the anthropogenic emission of carbon dioxide is reduced by this project activity below those that would have occurred in the absence of CDM project. Moreover, this paper shows that this project achieves not only emission reduction of carbon dioxide but energy saving, water saving and emission reduction of other pollutants such as sulfur dioxide.
