On the 19th of this month, the international oil price first broke the one hundred yuan mark. On the 20th, the March crude oil futures price of the New York Mercantile Exchange closed at 100.74 US dollars, while the March contract hit a record high of 101.32 US dollars. In the face of rising oil prices, the development of biodiesel, which uses tung oil as raw material, is even more urgent. However, to speed up the development of biodiesel to reduce dependence on crude oil, is our condition mature? Experts in the industry believe that the development of lintong industry should become an important choice for the country's energy strategy. At the same time, the country also needs to make long-term plans to support the industry. It is particularly important that the national standards for biodiesel must be formulated as soon as possible.
At present, the United States, Japan, Germany, and other developed countries have embarked on a path of developing characteristic biomass energy: the United States has listed biodiesel as one of its key developments in clean energy, and the country does not collect taxes on biodiesel, and its total production capacity has reached 300,000 tons per year; Japan's annual output of biodiesel can reach 400,000 tons per year; Germany is the world's largest producer and consumer of biodiesel, and currently has more than 300 biodiesel gas stations, setting standards for biodiesel, and Diesel is also not taxed.
In September 2006, China issued the "Implementation Opinions on the Development of Bio-energy and Bio-chemical Support Policies for Finance and Taxation," and proposed that the development of biomass energy be supported through four fiscal and tax policies: First, establish a risk fund system and implement flexible loss subsidies; The second is raw material base subsidies; the third is project model subsidies; the fourth is the implementation of tax incentives. These measures have provided a good policy environment for China to accelerate the development of the biomass energy industry.
As China's dependence on oil imports gradually increases, oil shortage has become an important factor affecting the sustainable development of China's economy, and even poses a serious threat to national industrial security. At present, some parts of China have begun to grow large-scale paulownia, many industry experts suggest that China should consider promoting tung tree planting, the development of national standards for biodiesel to reduce dependence on oil.
Since China does not currently have a national standard for biodiesel, if a large number of raw materials are produced, there is still no unified national standard. Therefore, the quality of these diesel oils will be uneven. At the same time, once there are other countries that have introduced the quality standards of GTO, we will fall into a passive follow-up situation.
In addition, there are still some other problems facing the production of lintong. Xu Jihong, a professor of biology at the Yunnan University, believes that different areas of the genips are not exactly the same. How to screen the cultivars with good growth, adaptability, and high oil content to promote cultivation is an urgent problem to solve. In addition, some forestry professionals also stated that many of the tung tree species cultivated in China are wild domesticated seedlings that have not been domesticated. It is a big problem to grow glutinosa trees in large areas. In addition, we have not accurately calculated the cost of artificially planted paulownia. The current cost is only the base construction cost. The input and output ratio in the operation and management will also become an important factor for the smooth development of GTO.
Comprehensive analysis, at present, it is not easy to rely on biodiesel to ease the high oil price dilemma. We still have a long way to go. Therefore, experts and industry experts suggest that the state should increase its investment in the cultivation of tung trees. Perhaps the economic benefits of the development of the industry in the future will be less impressive. However, considering the energy strategy, the obvious ecological and social benefits are worth paying. Government departments should quickly formulate policies that are conducive to the development of Gushtung, such as investment, prices, taxes, and government subsidies, implement sales channels for products, and guide the participation of large-scale energy companies and social enterprises to form a complete biodiesel production, compounding, and sales system.
