The calcium carbide industry entered the year 2011 after a year of cancellation of preferential tariffs, limited production, limited production, forced suspension of production, and dramatic fluctuations in prices. The industry generally believes that the biggest challenge faced by the development of the calcium carbide industry this year is: Under the country's increasingly stringent energy-saving and emission reduction policies and measures, the industry can successfully complete the elimination of backward production capacity, improve the level of technical equipment, achieve industrial upgrading, and further extend the industry chain. How will the calcium carbide industry respond to the “exam†of industrial upgrading in 2011? Relevant experts suggest that the state issue relevant policies, establish a sound mechanism for withdrawal of production compensation, encourage internal combustion furnaces to withdraw from the market, and pave the way for the development of large-scale sealed furnaces.
Zhang Yu, chairman of the China Calcium Carbide Industry Association, said: "If we use one sentence to predict and summarize, then in 2011, the calcium carbide industry will usher in a comprehensive upgrade and integration, and the survival and development of enterprises will face a severe test."
According to Zhang Yu, calcium carbide is a bulk product in China's basic chemical raw materials, and the calcium carbide industry is a typical high-energy-consuming industry. In 2010, China's calcium carbide production is expected to be 14.3 million tons, while the production capacity is as high as 28 million tons, and the operating rate is only 50% to 60%. At the same time when there is a serious surplus of production capacity, the capacity of adopting large-scale sealed furnaces for energy conservation and environmental protection accounts for only 20% of the total production capacity. The power consumption and comprehensive energy consumption of large-scale furnaces with closed furnaces are 3100 kWh/ton and 1 ton standard coal/ton, respectively. At present, the electricity consumption and comprehensive energy consumption of most calcium carbide furnaces in China are 3440 kWh/ton and 1.1 tons of standard coal, respectively. /Ton. The overcapacity and the cost pressure brought about by the backwardness of technology and equipment are leading to a drop in the profitability of the calcium carbide industry and even to losses. In 2011, with the continued development of energy-saving and emission-reduction policies, the country’s requirements for the calcium carbide industry will become more stringent.
In the new year, how can calcium carbide companies avoid risks and avoid falling into production and business difficulties? Zhang Yu believes that the most urgent task is to improve the level of technical equipment and to achieve a closed and large-scale production facility. Qualified enterprises should develop the 40,000-kilovolt closed calcium carbide furnace independently developed by China as soon as possible, and make up their minds to resolutely eliminate outdated production capacity. Through technological transformation and supporting the construction of integrated gas-fired devices, energy conservation and consumption reduction can be achieved, and production costs can be reduced. At the same time, it is necessary to expand the calcium carbide processing series and new products by extending the industrial chain.
As the dependence of calcium carbide consumption in China on the PVC industry is relatively large, the PVC industry has been in a downturn since the outbreak of the financial crisis, resulting in a major impact on the production and operation of calcium carbide enterprises. Therefore, in the future, the calcium carbide industry urgently needs to reduce its dependence on the PVC industry and broaden its downstream applications. For example, calcium carbide 1,4-butanediol, chloroprene rubber, vinyl acetate, polyvinyl alcohol, and derivatives thereof can be developed to diversify the downstream products of calcium carbide and transform calcium carbide into high-end products on site and realize products. The high-performance, specialization, green, and high value-added, enhance the company's competitiveness. Enterprises with weaker economic strength may further consolidate their own market share in calcium carbide through joint methods with downstream PVC companies or through mergers and reorganizations.
Professor Liu Shengwang, a chemical expert at Inner Mongolia University of Science and Technology, said that 2011 will be the year of upgrading and integration of China's calcium carbide industry. This is an inevitable trend and it is unstoppable. The status quo of overcapacity, pressure from energy-saving and emission reduction policies, and consumption of polyvinyl chloride downstream products such as calcium carbide will accelerate this process.
Prof. Liu Shengwang predicts that in 2011, the upgrade and integration of calcium carbide industry will have the following features: First, the product will increase and eliminate the backward production capacity. The production and sales will tend to be balanced. Second, the degree of industrial concentration will be further increased. The reorganization of calcium carbide enterprises and upstream and downstream enterprises will accelerate. A group of large-scale, large-scale enterprises with production capacity of 200,000 tons/year or more will dominate the market, prompting the lagging production capacity of small enterprises to speed up the exit. In addition, the calcium carbide industry has concentrated on large-scale production of resources and energy in the west, and the proportion of calcium carbide production in Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Ningxia, and Shaanxi accounts for a substantial increase. The third is that enterprises will accelerate the upgrading of their technical equipment and large-scale loopholes will be gradually become the main force for the development of the calcium carbide market. According to the plan of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology that requires more than 165,000 kVA of internal combustion furnaces to be converted into large enclosed furnaces, some internal combustion furnaces will be accelerated to support environmental protection treatment facilities, and some will be converted to ferronickel or other products, and the other part will be eliminated. Fourth, for the sake of energy saving and emission reduction and reducing costs, the comprehensive utilization of calcium carbide furnace gas will be widely promoted in the calcium carbide industry. Fifth, the extension of industrial chain of calcium carbide enterprises will be fully started, and the proportion of calcium carbide production of new products in the consumption structure of calcium carbide will further increase.
2011 is a critical year for the optimization and upgrading of the calcium carbide industry. For this reason, industry experts suggest that the government should issue relevant encouragement policies to improve the technical and equipment levels of the calcium carbide industry, eliminate backward production capacity, and accelerate the upgrade and transformation to avoid price fluctuations caused by the imbalance in the production and sales of calcium carbide. , Guide, meet and enrich the needs of the downstream industries, so that the calcium carbide industry and enterprises have embarked on a healthy development track. Encouraging policies include accelerating the promotion of large-scale closed-type calcium carbide furnaces and giving preferential treatment in financing; granting certain financial support to enterprises whose internal combustion furnaces are transformed into large-scale sealed furnaces, encouraging some internal combustion furnaces to withdraw from the market, and establishing a sound compensation mechanism for withdrawal of production capacity; Strictly control the construction of calcium carbide projects that simply increase production capacity, encourage the integrated development of upstream and downstream calcium carbide, and develop new products for calcium carbide downstream.
