Heraeus: Helping China move towards its "dual carbon" goals

At the 5th China International Import Expo held in Shanghai on November 5~10, the German technology giant Heraeus exhibited a variety of key materials and technologies in the field of environmental protection, including precious metal recycling, high-efficiency photovoltaic cell slurry, power electronic systems for electric vehicles, etc
.
Among them, the Chameleon optical fiber continuous temperature measurement system for the metallurgical industry was exhibited
for the first time in Asia.

As an "old friend" of the Expo, Heraeus entered the "Energy Low-carbon and Environmental Protection Technology Zone"
for the first time this year.
Jan Ridge, Chairman and CEO of Heraeus Group Rinnert said: "CIIE provides us with an excellent platform
to share and explore opportunities.
This year, we will combine Heraeus' technical expertise with the growing environmental needs of Chinese customers, including green energy, green mobility, green metallurgy and circular economy
.
Through these efforts, Heraeus hopes to work with customers and industry to help China achieve its climate control goals
.
”

To this end, Heraeus is focusing on the theme "Low Carbon and Environmental Protection by Materials Technology" this year, and the design highlights the concept of environmental protection, such as the display of Heraeus products and technologies
in the shape of the "Green Planet".
During the six-day exhibition, it is expected to receive thousands of visitors on site, exchange low-carbon topics with guests from governments, customers, associations, scientific research institutions, media and other guests, promote environmental protection cooperation, and promote the high-quality development
of China's photovoltaic, electric vehicles, metallurgical and other related industries.

For example, China's steel industry accounts for about 15% of the country's total carbon emissions, and is under severe pressure
to reduce emissions.
Heraeus products are used in metallurgical and casting processes to perform on-line measurement and analysis of liquid metals, and have won the long-term trust
of many metallurgical giants with high-precision technology and high-quality services.
This time, Heraeus Chameleon™, which came all the way from Europe, is an innovative technology that helps to discover the optimal potential of metallurgical electric arc furnaces, provide continuous and accurate temperature measurement, measure the process without interrupting the induced current, do not destroy the foam slag, achieve energy saving, carbon reduction and high yield in the electric furnace steelmaking process, and improve the quality of
steel products.

In order to maximize the effect of the Expo, Heraeus uses digital means to reach a larger audience and expand its influence
.
On November 6~9, experts from Heraeus will join hands with guests from Tongji University, Shanghai University, EY and other groups to hold an online forum to interpret the opportunities and challenges of electric vehicles, new energy, metallurgy, circular economy and other industries moving towards low carbon from multiple perspectives, and explore green development paths
through industry-university-research cooperation.

"China is one of
Heraeus' most important markets worldwide.
" In an interview on November 7, Dr.
Zhou Ping Ai, President of Heraeus Greater China, emphasized, "Heraeus has participated in CIIE for five consecutive years and has signed a contract for the sixth edition
in advance.
On this platform, we have deepened strategic cooperation with partners from all walks of life and achieved win-win results
.
In the future, we will continue to leverage Heraeus' material expertise to create more value for our partners.
In particular, vigorously promote new products and technologies in the field of environmental protection, strive to promote the low-carbon transformation and high-quality development of China's manufacturing industry, realize the vision of 'green mountains and green water', benefit people's livelihood and improve the quality of life
.
