Since the 18th CPC National Congress, China has transformed such new concepts as sustainable development into a series of policy practice, leading the construction of ecological civilization to advance in depth.
Chenzhou has never stopped practice on the way to building a National Sustainable Development Agenda Innovation Demonstration Zone.
Chenzhou, aiming at the sustainable development, is doing its best to control water pollution and save water resource.
In recent years, Zixing City has taken multiple measures to protect the water source of the Dongjiang Lake, such as prohibition of tree cutting, returning the net boxes to shore and actively guiding the transformation of farmers.
The cold water of the Dongjiang Lake also contributes to the development of Chenzhou and promotes the big data industry of Zixing.
The Dongjiang Lake Data Center was successfully recognized as a national sustainable data center in December 2020. It is the most energy-efficient and environment-friendly data center in China and the only certified enhanced-level (Class-A) data center in Hunan Province.
Every effort has been made in Chenzhou to improve management of water supply. Chenzhou has renovated the old pipe network in the downtown area and completed the installation of monitoring master meters in more than 100 communities, which has reduced the leakage rate of water supply from 24% to 17%.
Chenzhou attaches great importance to innovation on the way to building a National Sustainable Development Agenda Innovation Demonstration Zone.
Chenzhou actively fulfills its responsibility of construction, focusing on the implementation of three major projects, namely cultivation of innovative enterprises, transformation of innovative achievements as well as introduction and construction of innovative platforms. It has built a rudimentary sustainable development innovative system oriented by innovation demand, with enterprises as the main body and supported by the combination of government, industry, academia and research.
Hunan Chenzhou Grain and Oil Machinery Co., Ltd. has over 100 kinds of specifications of products in more than 20 series, including paddy cleaning, rice milling, polishing, rice grading and selection. More than 80 kinds of products have independent intellectual property rights.
The third-generation dryer developed by the company is the world’s first “low temperature” grain dryer, which has obtained 12 types of patented technologies like the technology “three stages and two sides drying”. In the drying of grain and seeds, the efficiency is 20%~50% higher than before, and the fuel cost is more than 30% less than the common cross-flow grain dryer.
The products of Hunan Chenzhou Grain and Oil Machinery Co., Ltd. have reached the global market and basically covered all the rice producing areas and mixed grain producing areas in the world.
The neutral borosilicate medical glass products developed by Chenzhou Kibing Photovoltaic Photoelectric Glass Co., Ltd. can achieve the non-penetration of drugs from -72 ℃ to 500 ℃, breaking the technical monopoly and realizing the localization substitution.
Hunan Shizhuyuan Nonferrous Metals Co., Ltd. has continuously improved the level of comprehensive utilization of resources. It has achieved fruitful innovative results and transformed them into productivity, so that the tungsten recovery rate has increased from about 30% at the beginning to over 70% at present.
Innovation facilitates Chenzhou’s industrial transformation. A characteristic road of sustainable development and a series of replicable experience of Chenzhou are being formed.
