Drying equipment

Since the beginning of this year, due to factors such as the continued sluggish export of domestic dyestuffs and the suspension of production of many downstream companies in China, the pressure on sales of sulfidic black enterprises has increased significantly, and the production load has continuously declined. Until now, some SMEs have still stopped production and the domestic comprehensive operating rate has dropped to 30%, setting a new low in recent years.

From several domestic large-scale production enterprises of sulfur black , it is learned that a considerable number of enterprises are currently at the edge of losses. Enterprises without resource advantages are generally at a loss. The suspension of production, conversion, and relocation of enterprises have become common phenomenon, and the vulcanization industry is facing a reshuffle. Pattern.

“Our company has an annual capacity of 50,000 tons, but three sets of equipment are currently only open.” Li Yurong, deputy general manager of Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd., Inner Mongolia Yabulai Salt Chemical Co., Ltd. The reporter said: "The reasons for this are mainly due to the current obstruction of the export of the black vulcanization market and the decline in domestic demand. In order for companies to develop steadily and healthily, they must gradually reduce their dependence on exports and work hard to stimulate domestic demand."

As an excellent cotton dye, in recent years, the vulcanization black industry has rapidly expanded its capacity with the expansion of the global textile industry. It is expected that the annual production capacity of sulfur black in China will exceed 350,000 tons this year, making it the world's largest producer and consumer. At present, China's annual output of sulfur black has exceeded 32% of domestic production, and it is already the world's largest exporter of sulfur black.

“The substantial expansion of sulfur black has become the major bottleneck in the industry. With the rapid expansion of production capacity, the supply and demand imbalance has already appeared in the vulcanization black market. However, in the past two years, some new or expansion projects have continued to be launched. Overcapacity will become an obstacle The biggest problem in the development of Sulfur Black Enterprise will be to inhibit the long-term healthy development of the entire industry, and at the same time it will also have some negative impact on exports,” said Li Peixin, the Minister of Supply of Henan Luoyang Chemical Co., Ltd.

In addition to excess capacity, the vulcanization black industry is also facing the dilemma of shrinking the market.

“Downstream printing and dyeing companies have been shut down in large numbers due to pollution and other issues. In many places, they have been listed as industries that have shifted their focus. The number of our customers has also dropped significantly,” said Li Zhanchao, a deputy general manager of a sulfur black company in Hebei.

It is understood that there are thousands of printing and dyeing companies in the surrounding areas of Guangzhou, and it is the largest consumer of sulfur black in the country, accounting for more than 50% of the country's total consumption. However, while industrialization has brought about significant economic benefits, it has also brought about industrial pollution. Water pollution caused by the printing and dyeing process has made the textile printing and dyeing industry a target of public criticism. Since 2010, the local government has stepped up efforts to eliminate backward production capacity in the region. By the end of last year, hundreds of dyeing and dyeing enterprises had been shut down in the region and the demand for sulfidic black was greatly reduced. Due to the weakening of the overall economic situation this year, SMEs are faced with persistently high costs and financial constraints. In addition, a number of smaller printing and dyeing companies have been shut down and transferred, further reducing the market demand for sulfur black. However, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other major dye provinces all have similar conditions. The drastic reduction in domestic demand has also made the sulfur black companies worse.

“Now, less than 30% of the more than a dozen black sulfuric enterprises in Hebei Province are under construction. Some companies have permanently suspended production, and some companies have moved to resource-rich regions such as Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang for cost reduction considerations. It is expected that by the end of this year. , Sulfur black enterprises in Hebei should reduce more than 30%." Li Zhanchao told reporters.

Some of the downstream printing and dyeing companies have been gradually transferred from the southern region to Inner Mongolia, Ningxia, Xinjiang and other resource provinces due to factors such as production and environmental protection. With the shift of consumption areas, the distribution of domestic black sulfur companies has also undergone a substantial adjustment. Sulfur black enterprises originally located in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces have gradually moved northwards. According to incomplete statistics, as of now, the total production capacity of sulfur black enterprises in Inner Mongolia, Hebei, and Shandong alone accounted for more than 72% of the country's total production capacity, and increased by 50% on the basis of 2008.

“In order to reduce the costs of raw materials, transportation, etc., the transfer of some printing and dyeing companies in the south to the north is also an irresistible trend. The future raw material—dye—printing and dyeing integrated production line is expected to gradually settle into a resource-rich province. According to the current development situation, domestic sulfidic black companies may face this year. The pattern of big shuffles." Li Yurong said.
