中国上海-- 2005年12月14日 -- 宝山钢铁股份有限公司和宝钢集团上海浦东钢铁有限公司引进了GE能源及石油天然气技术用以建设全球最大的COREX® 燃气轮机联合循环发电项目。
"GE在中国的发电领域已经拥有良好的业绩和声誉，而本项目则标志着我们的技术在中国钢铁生产领域的独特运用，"GE能源集团中国区总裁兼首席执行官福莱德 (Steve Fludder) 说，"我们联合了多个GE业务部门的全球资源开发了一套创新技术，运用一台9E燃气轮机和大型煤气压缩机组，有机整合到先进的炼钢流程中。"
位于上海宝山罗泾镇的这一工程主要特点是采用当今世界炼铁前沿技术取代传统的高炉，用COREX® 炉生产铁水，用纯氧鼓风，在生产铁水的同时，副产大量中热值COREX® 煤气；煤气通过一台16.9万千瓦的燃气轮机联合循环发电机组转化为电能；然后将电能供应给罗泾工程的制氧机组和其它他用户，形成一次能源的循环利用。
"比较传统的高炉而言，用COREX® 流程生产铁水对环境的影响要小得多。将GE的燃气轮机联合循环发电系统运用到COREX® 流程结果会提高百分之十的节能率。节能与环保对21世纪的中国至关重要，因此，罗泾工程以及宝钢和GE之间的这一合作是双方都深感自豪的一个重大举措，" 福莱德说。
