Titanium dioxide: six strategies to resolve the four major contradictions

This year, the Titanium Dioxide industry in China has maintained a good momentum of development. The total production capacity is expected to exceed 1 million tons, and the total output will reach 930,000 to 970,000 tons, an increase of 10% to 12% over the same period of last year. The production of rutile titanium dioxide reached about 350,000 tons, an increase of 14% year-on-year, setting a record high. As the world’s second-largest producer of titanium dioxide, China’s influence on the world market is increasing.
Since the beginning of this year, titanium ore, sulphuric ACID, coal, diesel and other raw materials and energy prices have risen in different ranges. The ilmenite is 300 yuan more than last year (ton price, the same below), and the sulphuric acid is 700-800 yuan higher than that of the enterprise. Space is further squeezed, and many enterprises have suffered losses in anatase production, and rutile production profits have decreased. The rapid development of the titanium dioxide industry also highlights four major contradictions: the contradiction between the rapid development of the industry and the scarcity of resources, the conflict between the environmental protection requirements and the “three wastes”, the contradiction between market demand and product structure imbalances, and the technological progress of the industry and enterprises. The contradiction of lack of independent innovation ability. Therefore, in the future, China's titanium dioxide industry will adopt the sustainable development path of large-scale, resource-saving, high-end quality, specialization of varieties, integration of upstream and downstream, and clean environment, and gradually solve the above-mentioned contradictions and problems.
One is the coordinated development of the sulfuric acid method and the chlorination method. At present, the world's mature titanium dioxide production process is mainly sulfuric acid and chlorination two. Sulfuric acid method has relatively large environmental pollution, but waste acid can be recycled and neutralized, and by-products can be comprehensively utilized. It also has the advantage of directly utilizing low-grade titanium concentrate as raw material. As long as we work hard to bring into play its own advantages, it is possible to raise the overall level of the titanium dioxide industry, which is dominated by the sulfuric acid process, to a new height. Because the chlorination method has more advantages than the sulfuric acid method, with the production of the 15,000-ton/year chlorination titanium dioxide production plant in Jinzhou, the time for the large-scale development of the chlorination process titanium dioxide in China is basically ripe. Therefore, in the foreseeable period, these two methods will continue to coexist and develop together.
The second is to speed up the industry restructuring, to scale, group development. At present, there are more than 70 titanium dioxide production enterprises in China, with a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises, low industrial concentration, and extremely unreasonable layout. In recent years, the titanium dioxide industry has made some progress in increasing the degree of concentration: Pangang Group has taken the lead in establishing a very large-scale titanium industry group. Some enterprises in the Guangxi region have established an annual output of 80,000 to 100,000 tons by using assets (equity) as a link. Rutile titanium dioxide reprocessing plant. In the future, with the increasingly fierce market competition, the growth mode of the industry's production capacity needs to be adjusted, and the company’s independent capacity expansion (new capacity) should be shifted to mergers and acquisitions within the industry. This approach can effectively ease the current contradiction between supply and demand, but also continuously improve the overall competitiveness of the industry.
The third is to achieve high quality and diversification of raw materials. Titanium resources are non-renewable strategic resources. At present, the actual demand for titanium ore in China's titanium dioxide industry is more than 1.9 million tons/year, and the actual production capacity of titanium ore per year is only 1.1 million tons, which is no longer sufficient. It is estimated that by 2010, domestic titanium ore products will have less than 50% satisfaction rate. In the future, it will become an inevitable choice to expand the use of acid-soluble titanium slag and titanium-rich ore with higher titanium dioxide content. In order to speed up the establishment of raw material bases in China, it is necessary to further increase the purchase volume of imported titanium slag and titanium ore. The titanium slag used in the future chlorination process should be mainly achieved through the development of a large-scale natural rutile production base.
The fourth is to increase production technology levels through multiple channels. The titanium dioxide industry in China is still in growth. In order to reduce resource consumption, reduce pollution emissions, and promote product structure optimization and upgrading, it is necessary to improve the technical level of the industry through multiple channels: to introduce advanced and mature technologies and improve the level of development; at the same time, to integrate and re-innovate on the basis of digesting and absorbing imported technologies. , Continuously improve the ability of independent innovation; we must actively promote the construction of science and technology platforms, improve the conditions for scientific research to build and share systems, and provide resources for the development of the industry.
Fifth, market-oriented and in-depth product development. The titanium dioxide industry should implement the brand strategy as the engine to speed up product replacement and change the variety structure to the direction of diversification and high-end development, and accelerate the development of pulp-like titanium dioxide products, titanium dioxide for high-grade decorative paper, titanium dioxide for chemical fiber, and titanium dioxide for foods. And the development and application of new titanium dioxide powders such as core titanium dioxide. Enterprises with certain comprehensive advantages should develop toward rutile-type special high-end products, and through product innovation, continuously improve product quality and overall performance in order to replace imports; medium-sized enterprises should base themselves on differentiated development and develop mid-range fine and special products.
Sixth, it is a rational treatment of changes in export tax rebate policy. From July 1, the new export tax rebate policy implemented by China will undoubtedly have a great impact on the titanium dioxide industry. However, it should be noted that the adjustment of export tax rebate policy is an inevitable trend, and the industry should take a rational approach to the changes in export tax rebate policy, actively respond to export strategy, product pricing, new product development, and energy conservation and consumption reduction, and strive to minimize it. The adverse effect of this tax rebate adjustment.
