2016 China Potash Potash Fertilizer Innovation Technology Exchange Conference successfully concluded

Recently, the "2016 China Potash Potash Fertilizer Innovation Technology Exchange Conference" sponsored by the Chemical Fertilizer Professional Committee of the Chinese Society of Chemical Industry, Shanghai Research Institute of Chemical Industry, National Fertilizer Industry Information Station, and China Chemical Machinery Network discussed the theme of integration, innovation, and win-win.
The latest innovations in all links of the potash fertilizer industry chain, sharing how relevant companies rely on technological progress to explore secondary upgrades under the sluggish market
.
??? According to statistics, the total production capacity of China's resource-based potash fertilizer was 7.
75 million tons (in K2O) in 2015, a year-on-year increase of 20.
19%
.
The annual output was 5.
71 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 8.
55%
.
In terms of import and export, the total amount of potash fertilizer imported in 2015 was 9.
4 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 13.
94%
.
Imports show the characteristics of "price drop and volume increase"
.
As the negotiation process of China's potash fertilizer contract becomes clearer, the unfavorable expectations of the decline in domestic potash fertilizer prices once again challenge the competitiveness and vitality of China's potash fertilizer industry
.
? At the meeting, Zhai Jinguo, vice president of Shanghai Research Institute of Chemical Industry, introduced many technological breakthroughs made by the institute in potash fertilizer in recent years
.
At the same time, he also affirmed the achievements made by the Chemical Fertilizer Professional Committee of the Chinese Society of Chemical Industry in promoting industrial progress and upgrading
.
More than 200 industry professionals including Qinghai Salt Lake Industry Co.
, Ltd.
attended the meeting and had a lively discussion
.
? In the report, Shang Zhaocong, secretary general of the National Standardization Technical Committee for Fertilizers and Soil Conditioners, proposed that the future development of potash fertilizers will develop towards diversified varieties and diversified combinations.
The potash fertilizer industry should focus on quality improvement, including nutrient concentration, harmful substances, In terms of physical properties, it is hoped that the potash industry will continue to introduce new technologies
.
"At present, the potash fertilizer industry shows the characteristics of diversified varieties
.
In addition to traditional potash fertilizers, the industry is also developing varieties such as potassium fulvic acid, potassium humate, potassium ammonium nitrate, potassium carbonate, potassium formate, mineral potassium, and biological potassium
.
The combination of potassium fertilizers is diverse.
Chemical is also a new trend
.
In addition to combining with nitrogen and phosphorus, combining with organic matter, medium and trace elements, beneficial elements, chelating agents, and combinations of different potassium sources
.
At the same time, the industry pays more attention to the guidance of potash application methods, how to achieve efficient use, safe production and use, and how to improve the quality
.
"Shang Zhaocong emphasized
.
In addition, the meeting also put forward pertinent suggestions for the Mannheim Process Potassium Sulfate Industry Chain, which is experiencing serious difficulties
.
Qi Zhaoying, a member of the National Fertilizer and Soil Conditioner Standardization Technical Committee, said that the industry should not support it in principle.
New Mannheim process potassium sulfate plant, if there are exceptions, it must be a large-scale comprehensive production enterprise that has excess concentrated sulfuric acid to consume or needs hydrochloric acid as raw material, and potassium sulfate should not be the main product
.
In this regard, Shandong Linyi Hao Yang Lei, the person in charge of Yang Potash Technology Co.
, Ltd.
, believes that China's Mannheim process potassium sulfate technology is already at the forefront of the world.
There are more than 500 Mannheim furnaces in China, with a start-up rate of about 50%, and serious overcapacity
.
2015 The domestic production ratio of potassium chloride and potassium sulfate is about 4:1, while the world's production capacity ratio of potassium chloride to potassium sulfate is less than 20:1
.
Potassium sulfate production lines are promising in foreign markets, and it is equipment manufacturers and manufacturers who are turning to the international market.
the only way
.
? Qi Zhao Ying also introduced the operation and status of potash innovative technology development direction of China's potash fertilizer industry
.
she said that from the global potash market, the exclusion of uncertainties, from a single supply and demand and the development of unit investment cost projections, as late as 2017 By the end of the year, the world's potash fertilizer market prices may rebound
.
In 2016, China's potash fertilizer production capacity and output will maintain a slowing growth trend, and output will be adjusted according to market prices
.
Imports will remain around 7 million tons, and the total apparent domestic consumption The amount is expected to increase by 10%
.
Experts believe that China is short of water and the integration of water and fertilizer is an important development direction, but it is necessary to pay attention to the characteristics of each species
.
Potassium chloride, potassium nitrate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, crystalline potassium sulfate Magnesium fertilizer, potassium bicarbonate, potassium fulvic acid and other varieties are worthy of further attention
.
Experts especially mentioned potassium bicarbonate, "neutral, low cost, stable performance under normal temperature and pressure, and good water-soluble potassium fertilizer varieties, especially suitable Greenhouse crops
.
The greenhouse air is not circulated and carbon dioxide is lacking.
Potassium bicarbonate can slowly and stably release CO2, keeping the concentration of carbon dioxide in the greenhouse at a normal level, which has obvious cost-effective advantages
.
"Taizhou Wenlong Chemical Technology Co.
, Ltd.
Ling Ping believes that domestic enterprises must pay attention to process details when developing the fine potassium industry
.
Potassium hydroxide category of 29 kinds of chemical raw materials, such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate and potassium pyrophosphate, covers a wide range of applications.
Fertilizers, food additives, medicine, electronics and many other fields, but the price difference between China’s import and export of potassium hydroxide is more than 1,000 yuan/ton
.
Quality is the life of the price
.
The industry should choose high-tech development routes while improving technology and products.
Inject more energy into control
