Recently, "2022 Environmental Protection Science and Technology Award", "2022 MCC Group Science and Technology Award" and "2021 Beijing Science and Technology Award" have been announced. 8 innovative achievements of CERI have been on the list of the award winners. Among them, 5 achievements and 3 achievements were granted with first prizes and second prizes respectively. All these results have provided a strong scientific and technological support for CERI to persist in the path of high-tech development.

The achievement "Key Technology for Preparation of High Efficiency Reverse Osmosis Membrane for Recycled Water Treatment and Green Process" with CERI getting involved in application won the first prize of the "2022 Environmental Protection Science and Technology Award" of the Chinese Society For Environmental Sciences by the first place in total score, realizing the company's historical breakthrough in the selection of the highest award in the field of national environmental protection science and technology.

The project proposes the overall technical route of "identification, prevention and control, removal and risk reduction of fouling" in view of the serious fouling of the regenerated water reverse osmosis treatment membrane in the process of sewage and wastewater recycling, which leads to high energy consumption and agent consumption, low process efficiency, high concentrated water risk and other problems. The innovative achievement has broken through the key technology of high efficiency reverse osmosis treatment of reclaimed water, established the index system of inlet water quality of reclaimed water reverse osmosis treatment process, broken through the preparation technology of anti-fouling reverse osmosis membrane components for reclaimed water treatment, the prevention and control technology of pre-treatment fouling and the high efficiency operation technology of the process, and developed the bio-toxicity reduction technology of reverse osmosis concentrated water. After 15 years of continuous research, CERI has accomplished a lot of standards, patents, papers and other scientific research achievements and a large number of engineering practices, making outstanding contributions to the technical progress of sewage recycling in China.

This time, it won 5 science and technology awards of MCC Group, accounting for 11% of the group's total awards, of which 3 first prizes of MCC Group accounted for 20% of the group's total number of first prizes. It represents the high recognition of MCC Group for its great contribution to promoting the technological development in the metallurgical field at home. The awarded projects are as follows:

Innovation and Application of 450mm Straight Arc Type Extra Heavy Plate Continuous Casting Complete Technology and High Efficiency and Low Energy Consumption Steel Plate Manufacturing Technology -- The First Prize of Science and Technology of MCC Group

Development and Application of Environment-friendly and Efficient Bottom Filtration Process for Blast Furnace Slag Treatment -- The First Prize of Science and Technology of MCC Group

Development and Application of Key Technologies for Long-term Stability of Wet Desulfurization and Denitrification of Sintering Flue Gas -- The second prize of Science and Technology of MCC Group

CERI has won the first prize of Beijing Science and Technology Progress Award for two consecutive years, which reflects the full recognition of Beijing Municipal Government for CERI's outstanding contributions in promoting environmental governance and smart city construction. The awarded projects are as follows:

Integration and Application of Multi-function Coupling Ultra-low Emission Technology for Flue Gas in Key Processes of Iron and Steel Industry -- the First Prize of Beijing Science and Technology Progress Award

Key Technology and Engineering Application of Green Intelligent Construction, Operation and Maintenance Package for Utility Tunnel -- the Second Prize of Beijing Science and Technology Progress Award

Up to now, CERI has won 10 first prizes of provincial and ministerial scientific and technological achievements in 2022, which is the largest number of first prizes of provincial and ministerial scientific and technological achievements awarded since the inception of the company.
