Coal Chemical Industry as the major part of China industry, its carbon emission intensity is 4.5 times of the average industrial emission intensity, and much higher than the domestic average carbon emission intensity [1l According to future development plan, Coal Chemical Industry will develop rapidly in the next 15 years, the related carbon emission will reaches 1.7 billion tons by 2030 and emission intensity will be 14.2 tons CO2 per 10000 CNY of GDP. Zhu Liu predicts the CO2 emission will keep increasing at annual rate of 3% and excess 11.5 billion tons in 2020 in the absence of government policy intervention, and may even exceed 15 billion tons in 2030. To control the carbon emissions, Chinese government has set out target to control the greenhouse gas emissions, the domestic CO2 emission intensity shall be reduced by 40%~45% in 2020 and 60%~65% in 2030 based on the value in 2005, and an emission peak should be reached in 2030. Along with the urgent demanding of carbon reduction, a low carbon strategy is vital for the sustainable development of Coal Chemical Industry.
