Deyang held a high-end forum on phosphorus-titanium chemicals; experts recommended pursuing a high-end development path. According to Sichuan Online (reporter Yuan Jing), “An important task in the transformation and upgrading of the phosphorus-titanium chemicals industry is to move toward greater sophistication and higher quality.” ”On November 8, 2016, the China (Deyang) High-End Forum on Phosphorus and Titanium Chemicals was held. More than 200 experts, scholars, and enterprise representatives from the phosphorus and titanium chemical industry across the country gathered in Mianzhu, Deyang, to discuss the transformation, upgrading, and innovative development of this industry. In response to the issues of resource waste and environmental pollution that may arise in the phosphorus chemical industry, Zhang Yi, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, took the lead in introducing a new ecological circular technology system for this industry. By upgrading existing technology systems with these new technologies, it is possible to achieve good results in terms of resource conservation and environmental protection, while simultaneously ensuring the economic viability of enterprises. “Given the current situation in China’s chemical industry, there is a shortage of high-end products, while there is an excess of mid- to low-end, general-purpose products. ”Hong Dingyi, an executive director and senior advisor of the Chinese Chemical Society, pointed out that to overcome this challenge, the phosphorus-titanium industry needs to move toward more refined and high-end products, such as electronic-grade phosphoric acid, food-grade phosphate additives, and phosphorus-containing biomedical materials. ” Experts and scholars attending the conference conducted discussions in various forms, including keynote speeches, special reports, and exchange dialogues, focusing on the transformation, upgrading, and innovative development of the phosphorus-titanium chemical industry. “We hope to leverage academic resources through high-level forums to provide insights for the development of the local phosphorus and titanium industries, thereby achieving mutual support and growth among industry, academia, and research. ”Li Jihua, head of the Mianzhu Science and Technology Association, which is organizing the forum, said that on the 9th, there will also be a special session for presenting achievements and conducting discussions on cooperation. It is understood that Deyang is an important national base for phosphate mines and fertilizers, and it has developed a complete chemical industry chain. Taking Mianzhu as an example, the city has a total of 49 phosphorus-titanium chemical enterprises, of which 34 are above designated size. These enterprises operate in fields such as phosphorus chemistry, titanium chemistry, biochemistry, and fine phosphates. Key indicators such as the total output value and total profits and taxes generated by the phosphorus-titanium chemical industry account for over 45% of those of the entire industrial sector. However, the phosphotitanium chemicals industry still faces common industry-wide challenges such as green development, transformation and upgrading, structural adjustment, resource optimization, and environmental protection. “Local companies have made some attempts to improve the utilization rate of the waste generated by the phosphorus chemical industry and to upgrade the quality of their products, but there are still some technical barriers that require external assistance and expertise. ”Li Jihua added. Last April, the people’s government of Mianzhu City and the Chinese Chemical Society successfully signed a \"Framework Agreement on Cooperation to Promote the Optimization and Upgrading of the Chemical Industry in Mianzhu City.\" The Chinese Chemical Society provided comprehensive cooperative guidance, services, and intellectual support in areas such as talent training, cutting-edge technological information, strategic research, and joint research efforts. It is against this backdrop that this summit forum is being held, in order to promote the development of Mianzhu’s phosphorus and titanium chemical industry in the direction of \"greenness, sophistication, transformation, and innovation\". The forum is sponsored by the Chinese Chemical Society, the Sichuan Provincial Association for Science and Technology, and the People’s Government of Deyang City, and is organized by the People’s Government of Mianzhu City and the Deyang Municipal Association for Science and Technology.
