Abstract: Aiming at the problems of poor accuracy and low efficiency of traditional measurement methods, this paper designed a measurement method of carbon emissions of heavy industry enterprises based on LMDI decomposition method. Firstly, the carbon emission factors are collected based on the emission coefficient method, and the carbon content in the production process of heavy industry enterprises is detected. Then, using LMDI decomposition method, the operation process of heavy industry enterprises is divided into production, transportation and storage links, and the carbon emissions generated by the above three links are combined with the carbon emission coefficient of the energy chain in the coal combustion process to complete the calculation of carbon emissions. Experimental results show that the measurement accuracy of this method can reach up to 96.8%, and the maximum monitoring amount of carbon emissions per unit time is 24.3 kg, indicating that it improves the measurement accuracy and efficiency.

Keywords: heavy industry enterprises; coal combustion; carbon emissions; to measure; LMDI decomposition method.
