Those who are involved in PTA, come and chat

Hello everyone: It seems that the PTA industry isn’t doing very well these days, but it’s still important to keep up with the latest technologies. Those who are interested can come and discuss this. This post was last edited by grjq on 2009-4-26 at 10:00
I wonder how much you know about CTA? We are working on a project in this area.
I work in CTA; I’ve been in this field for four years now. Let’s discuss any issues together.
In my opinion, it is related to the industry cycle. Moreover, given that the threshold for building PTA plants is currently very low, competition in this industry is fierce. The price of the raw material PX is at a high level; at these prices, PTA producers basically won’t be able to make any profits. The future of PTA plants lies in energy conservation and reduced consumption – factors such as PX consumption, acetic acid consumption, wastewater discharge, and water usage are all key areas for achieving energy savings and reduced consumption.
The current downturn in the industry is related, to some extent, to rising oil prices and falling prices of downstream products. However, the main factor is the PTA futures market that has been active since last year; it seems that large buyers (reportedly worth hundreds of billions) are trying to drive down PTA prices through these futures contracts. As a result, various PTA manufacturers have started to stock up on PTA, with some large companies likely holding 300,000 to 400,000 tons each. Just like in the stock market, PTA futures prices will surely rise – for example, prices already reached over 8,000 in February. Furthermore, as mentioned above, taking necessary measures to reduce production costs is the most important thing. However, the funding required for project construction is also substantial; it’s not clear whether the domestic design developed by the China Textile Research Institute can help reduce these investment costs. By the way, I have been working as a PTA for 5 years now, and I really hope to exchange ideas with everyone!
The PTA project designed by the China Textile Research Institute – the Jialong Petrochemical PTA project – has a total investment of 2.24 billion yuan and is currently under construction; it should be in good shape
The appreciation of the RMB and rising wages have a significant impact on the textile industry; it is estimated that the PTA market will not improve in the short term.
How much do you know about the CTA mother liquor filter? What is the material of the equipment used?
The Jialong Petrochemical PTA project relies on Investa (DuPont) as the provider of proprietary technology, and it has little connection to the China Textile and Apparel Research Institute! The China Textile Research Institute is responsible for the detailed design! Additionally, it is said that there is a project in Chongqing that is being rebuilt using the \"domestically developed\" PTA technology from the China Textile and Apparel Research Institute! But there might still be certain arguments regarding the origin of intellectual property rights! This post was last edited by uway on 2008-2-27 08:36.]
The filter elements are made of the same material as the equipment. Do you know how Xiamen Xianglu is used?
Chongqing Pengwei uses technology from the China Textile and Apparel Research Institute. I have a quote request for PTA mother liquor recovery. Please contact me if you need it.
Could you provide some information? Please send it to 196902818@163.com. Thank you! !
I would like a quotation for “PTA mother liquor recovery”. If possible, please send it to my email address “zhl663707@163.com”. Thank you!
It seems that the PTA industry is a bit overheated at the moment; many places started implementing this project in the previous two years. Now it’s directly affected by PX prices, and companies are operating with only slim profits.
Are you referring to CTA or PTA? Both sections need to be filtered.
I work on PTA silos. Do people think that silo technology is not very complex?
It is said that the most advanced PTA technology in China at present is that of Zhuhai BP-PTA. I wonder if any of you can provide more detailed information so that we can learn about it
If supporting technologies such as long-distance pneumatic transportation of PTA powder are included, the technical complexity increases
The current trend is oxidation; refining might disappear. What people on the forums talk about most is also oxidation, with not much refining taking place
Is there any that is refined? QQ: 251723272
