According to recent reports from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, 1,000 chemical enterprises need to be relocated due to safety issues, with costs amounting to 400 billion. How many of these enterprises, which are fertilizer factories, need to be relocated, and will their products still be fertilizers after the relocation? In the case of chemical fertilizers, whether enterprises should carry out renovation and relocation or reconstruction and relocation, we ask those forum members involved in this issue to provide information.
The large-scale fertilizer plants from the 1970s and 1980s are now largely isolated due to the construction conditions of that time as well as the needs of enterprises that provided services to their employees. Fertilizer production is no longer a highly profitable industry, and many of the manufacturing facilities have become outdated and require upgrading. **There is also strict control over production capacity.**
There should not be many fertilizer production facilities left, as many existing fertilizer projects have been phased out and upgraded over time; new projects should take these factors into consideration. Even if it wasn’t properly considered back then, it’s probably not an option now.
Are there any other internal updates, such as which manufacturers need to be rebuilt?
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology only makes macroscopic estimates regarding the need for chemical companies to relocate due to safety issues; it is not the ministry that decides this, but rather the State Administration of Work Safety. Of course, the costs are to be covered by the company itself.
