Reprinted from easyci: The soda ash industry should scientifically adjust its industrial structure in the future

Thread Content

As a bulk chemical product, domestic overcapacity of soda ash is an indisputable fact. However, with the gradual release of more than 1 million tons of new production capacity this year, the total domestic soda ash production capacity will reach more than 28 million tons by the end of the year, and the surplus situation will further intensify. Next year, on the one hand, there will be more than 2 million tons of new production capacity; on the other hand, * * The recently held Central Economic Work Conference once again clarified the determination to strengthen regulation on the real estate industry in the future. The downstream demand for soda ash will continue to be sluggish, making the domestic soda ash industry even more dire. Because of this, achieving scientific development, adjusting the industrial structure, improving the overall level of the industry, and strictly controlling the further expansion of production capacity have become the next focus of the entire industry. Recently, the Soda Ash Industry Association suggested in a report to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology that the entry threshold should be raised and the commissioning of new production capacity should be controlled. ； It is necessary to establish an exit mechanism for the original high-energy-consuming devices. If, after a transition period, they have not met the access conditions by 2015, they must be converted into production. Also, hope * * Introduce policies to promote, encourage and support mergers and reorganizations in the same industry. In the past, after the reorganization of soda ash companies by outside industry companies, soda ash has a tendency to be weakened because it is not the focus of development in other industries. Therefore, encouraging mergers and reorganizations in the industry can not only avoid situations that are not conducive to the development of the soda ash industry, but also alleviate the contradiction between production exceeding sales and make the industry run with higher quality. According to the report and analysis of the China Project Feasibility Research Center, the ultimate goal of achieving scientific development is to improve the overall level and efficiency of the industry. The use of efficient, energy-saving large-scale equipment to reduce energy consumption and costs has become the key to the sustainable development of the industry in the future. In the future, the industry will gradually introduce equipment with internationally advanced levels. Belt vacuum alkali filter is one of them. Accelerate the introduction and application of powder flow cooling alkali machines. The equipment that has been introduced has been used very well. The power consumption per ton of alkali has also been significantly reduced from the original 70 to 100 kilowatt hours to 5 kilowatt hours, and no dust is generated. It is necessary to promote dry ash-adding vacuum distillation equipment in ammonia and alkali plants to save water and steam. Promote heat pumps in trona and allied soda enterprises with self-contained salt plants to save a large amount of steam. Because salt and trona plants mostly use four-effect or five-effect evaporation, the use of heat pumps can pressurize low-pressure steam so that it can circulate in the salt or trona system. Only a small amount of steam needs to be added during the production process. At the same time, in the future, we should optimize process control to achieve smooth operation of the device and further promote safe and stable production to reduce energy consumption in the soda ash industry. * * Improve labor productivity. Energy conservation and emission reduction are necessary conditions for scientific development. For soda ash enterprises, energy conservation and emission reduction is a never-ending topic. In the future, we must make great efforts and work hard to achieve results.
