A new requirement of standardization is proposed. Based on the exploration of Wuhan Electric Power Technical College (hereinafter referred to as WDY)'s preparation practice in recent years, this paper investigates and analyzes a number of issues affecting the quality of the quality annual report, proposes the path and method of optimizing the preparation of the quality annual report, and attempts to explore the practical significance of the quality annual report to promote the development of high quality vocational colleges from the perspective of the quality of the annual report to promote institutional development.展开更多

It can provide compensation to the elderly population who meet the statutory conditions of the state to ensure the basic living needs of the elderly. It is through the establishment and improvement of the old-age social insurance system, so that all citizens who have lost their ability to work due to their excessive age can meet the most basic survival guarantee, so as to ensure that they can enjoy the old-age life more stably. As the most populous country in the world, the old-age insurance system is particularly important in our country. At the same time, with the profound changes in the world environment and the increasing aging of the population in various regions, all sectors of society should correctly face the development and current situation of China's old-age insurance system. Only in this way can the old-age insurance system in line with China's actual social and economic development be constructed and continuously improved and optimized.展开更多

DICP, by collaborating with the Xinxing Coal Chemical Co., Ltd. of Shaanxi Province and the Luoyang Petrochemical Engineering Co. of the SINOPEC Group, operated successfully a 50t(methanol)/d unit for the conversion of methanol to lower olefins, with a methanol conversion of close to 100%, and a selectivity to lower olefins(ethylene, propylene and butylenes) of higher than 90%. On 23rd August, the industrial test project has passed a state appraisal. The experts of the Appraisal Group, headed by Prof. YUAN Qingtang, academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering, drew the conclusions that the DMTO process, by utilizing a proprietary SAPO-34 catalyst system and a recycling fluidized bed reaction system for the production of lower olefins from methanol, is the first unit in the world having a capacity of producing nearly ten thousand tons lower olefins per year. The technological level of the industrial test is at a leading position internationally. This accomplishment will provide a sound base for the subsequent commercialization of the DMTO process.展开更多
