the production and consumption status and Prospect Analysis of mixed xylene in China
200 since the beginning of this century, 5 January 12
relevant experts in the industry have predicted the production and consumption status and Prospect Analysis of mixed xylene in China as follows:
at present, the total production capacity of mixed xylene in China is 2.748 million tons/year, Among them, the production capacity of isomeric grade xylene is 1622000 tons/year, and that of solvent grade xylene is 1126000 tons/year. The main manufacturers are Zhenhai Refining and chemical company (with a production capacity of 593000 tons/year), Fushun Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 316000 tons/year) Jilin Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 204000 tons/year, which is more likely to appear on old machines), Jinxi Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 20000 tons/year), Jinzhou Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 36000 tons/year), Lanzhou Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 198000 tons/year), Changling Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 105000 tons/year) Guangzhou Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 53000 tons/year), Jiujiang Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 53000 tons/year), Luoyang Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 358000 tons/year), Maoming Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 99000 tons/year), Shijiazhuang Refinery (with a production capacity of 51000 tons/year) Beijing Yanshan Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 44000 tons/year), Daqing Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 70000 tons/year), Dushanzi Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 80000 tons/year), Urumqi Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 110000 tons/year) and Panjin Petrochemical Company (with a production capacity of 80000 tons/year), etc
there is a serious shortage of mixed xylene in China, in which the proportion of solvent grade xylene is greater than that of developed countries in the world, and it has become the largest importer of solvent grade xylene in Asia and even the world. The import volume of mixed xylene in China was 212400 tons in 2000, 230000 tons in 2002 and 2001, increased to 271300 tons in 2002, and reached 497700 tons in 2003, an increase of about 83.5% over 2002
the consumption composition of mixed xylene in China is roughly paint, coating, dye, etc., accounting for about 49% of the total consumption of mixed xylene, organic synthetic materials accounting for about 20%, pesticides accounting for about 15%, and other products accounting for about 16%
paint is the product that consumes the most mixed xylene in China. In recent years, China's paint market has been oversupplied, and the product sales are not smooth. Some enterprises are in the state of shutdown or semi shutdown, and the amount of mixed xylene is reduced. With the continuous increase of the output of China's automobile (especially car) industry and household appliances, as well as the transformation of railway passenger cars, the demand for paint, especially the demand for high-grade paint to measure the current pulsation through brain cells, has increased significantly. In order to meet the needs of the market, some domestic paint production enterprises have successively introduced foreign technology, equipment, joint ventures or sole proprietorships to carry out technological transformation, adjust product structure and improve quality. In recent years, China's economy has maintained a high growth rate, the amount of paint has increased, and the demand for mixed xylene has also increased
in recent years, the dye market is also oversupplied, and the product sales are not booming. However, after the adjustment of industrial structure, the production situation of the textile industry has improved significantly, the output has increased, the efficiency has improved, the export situation is promising, the amount of dyes has also increased, and the demand for mixed xylene has also increased
with the continuous development of petrochemical industry, the application range of isomeric mixed xylene is expanding. For example, o-xylene can be used to manufacture phthalic anhydride. In addition to the existing o-xylene phthalic anhydride production units of Jinling Petrochemical, Qilu Petrochemical and Jilin Petrochemical, the second set of 40000 t/a o-xylene phthalic anhydride unit of Jinling Petrochemical Company has been completed and put into operation. Qilu Petrochemical also plans to expand its production capacity. The 40000 t/a unit of Jinzhou Petrochemical is also under construction, and the consumption of o-xylene will also increase significantly
with the rapid development of China's polyester industry, in mixed xylene, although the production capacity and production of p-xylene can also implement the three shift system, the volume continues to increase, but due to the large gap, a large number of imports are required every year. In 2003, the output of p-xylene was 1.571 million tons, and the apparent consumption reached 2.5 million tons, a record high, an increase of 72.1% over 2002, while the domestic production capacity of p-xylene was only 2.36 million tons/year, with a large gap. In 2003, the import volume reached 1.019 million tons, and the proportion of import/apparent consumption increased to 40.7%. It is estimated that by 2006, the production capacity of p-xylene in China will reach 3.5 million tons. At that time, the domestic supply gap of p-xylene will reach 1.6 million tons, and the net import volume will exceed 2.5 million tons by 2010. After 2005, China will become one of the major importers of paraxylene in the world
