The 300,000-ton chlorination titanium dioxide production line started

On May 21, the opening ceremony of the 300,000-ton/year chlorination titanium dioxide production line of Lomon Baililian Group was held in Jiaozuo City, Henan Province
.
The commissioning of this production line will increase the company’s annual production capacity of titanium dioxide to 950,000 tons, ranking first in Asia and the world’s forefront.
At the same time, it will increase the proportion of the domestic chlorination method titanium dioxide production process and improve the titanium dioxide industry’s Green level
.
???? According to Fan Xianguo, president of Lomon Baililian Group Co.
, Ltd.
, the overall domestic production capacity of chlorinated titanium dioxide in 2018 was 200,000 tons, and the actual output was only 100,000 tons
.
After the 300,000-ton/year chlorination production line of Lomon Baililian is fully put into operation, the total domestic production capacity of the chlorination process will double, and the scale gap with the sulfuric acid process will gradually narrow
.
According to the current test-run situation, by the end of this year, Lomon Baililian's chlorination process capacity will release a total of 150,000 to 200,000 tons
.
It is expected that the production capacity of 300,000 tons of chlorination process will be completed next year
.
Through the previous use of related products, the downstream customers have now had a good acceptance and satisfaction with Lomon-Belilian chlorination process products
.
??? The company's chairman Xu Gang said that Lomon Billion Group first introduced titanium dioxide production technology in 1988.
After more than 30 years of development, it has now formed three provinces and four provinces including Henan Jiaozuo, Sichuan Deyang, Panzhihua, and Hubei Xiangyang.
Five major titanium dioxide industrial bases in the region
.
In 2015, the 60,000-ton/year chlorination titanium dioxide project of Henan Baililian Company, the predecessor of Lomon Billion, was successfully put into operation, making the company the only large-scale titanium dioxide with both sulfuric acid and chlorination production processes in China.
Production enterprises

???? Xu Gang said that in the future, Lomon Billion will connect with the international mainstream process technology, vigorously develop the chlorination process, and expand the upstream and downstream industrial chain to accelerate the application of related technologies in the upstream domestic titanium ore resource chlorination process The research and industrialization process of China
.
At the same time, speed up the construction layout of downstream high-purity sponge titanium and high-end titanium alloy new material projects
.
Currently, relevant strategic plans are being implemented in an orderly manner
.
????? Regarding the market situation of titanium dioxide, He Runliu, chairman of the China Coatings Industry Association Titanium Dioxide Branch Council, said that at present, the international titanium dioxide market demand is good, and the number of domestic exports of titanium dioxide has repeatedly hit new highs
.
In 2018, China's export of titanium dioxide hit a record high, reaching 908,300 tons, an increase of 9.
3% year-on-year
.
Developing countries such as India and Brazil have become the main force in the growth of titanium dioxide demand due to the continuous acceleration of economic development
.
At the same time, China's titanium dioxide exports to the United States are not directly affected by the trade war
.
The markets of emerging economies, including the BRICS, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East, are also potential export markets for companies to choose from
.
The reporter learned that compared with the traditional sulfuric acid method titanium dioxide production process, the chloride method has the advantages of short process flow, high degree of automation, less environmental pollution, and good product quality.
From the perspective of green development, it is better.
Good choice
.
However, due to the high requirements for raw materials and high dependence on imports of titanium dioxide by the chlorination method, the safety and environmental protection costs are relatively high.
The domestic production by the chlorination method accounts for a relatively low proportion, and the technology needs to be broken through the blockade
