In March 2021, the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region officially issued the “Several Guarantee Measures for Ensuring the Completion of the “14th Five-Year Plan” Energy Consumption Dual Control Targets and Tasks. The “Measures” require that a series of high-energy-consuming industries such as PVC, caustic soda, and soda ash will no longer be approved during the “14th Five-Year Plan” period. If it is necessary to add new production capacity, the reduction and replacement of production capacity and energy consumption must be carried out. This means that the future PVC production capacity of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, a major energy province, will only decrease but not increase. Inner Mongolia is the largest province of PVC production in my country. The entire northwest region accounts for 49.2% of the country’s production capacity, while Inner Mongolia accounts for about 37% of the northwest region’s production capacity, or about 18.2% of the national production capacity.
5, the development trend of PVC industry
In the next 10 years, the domestic PVC industry will further withdraw from the market and enter the park, realize industrial concentration, rational adjustment of industrial structure, and facilitation of resource utilization and logistics will be favorable bargaining chips for enterprises to realize profits and gain competitive advantages. On the process route, the coexistence of the calcium carbide method and the ethylene method will continue, but the proportion of the ethylene method will be further expanded, gradually getting rid of the dependence on the acetylene method, and making positive contributions to reducing environmental pollution and achieving sustainable development. The current Jiang Zhongfa will be a positive side, but it needs to be verified by actual production.
In short, the PVC industry will gradually become calm and rational under the severe safety and environmental protection situation, in the fierce market and price competition, and under the gradual adjustment of excess production capacity. Brand and high-quality development, production capacity will be concentrated in the coastal and western regions, and large-scale and cross-regional operations will become mainstream. This can be seen from the trend of domestic production capacity changes in recent years. The steady change in production capacity often reflects the rationalization of industry development. At the same time, unpredictable factors in the market have brought a short-term impact on the development of the industry, especially the impact of the epidemic factor, which directly impacts all links, affects the relationship between supply and demand, tests the development of the industry, and also brings opportunities to the industry, even In the post-epidemic era, differences in different regions have brought temporary considerable profits to some regions. After rational analysis, remember to blindly expand and deteriorate the ratio of production capacity to output, and pay more attention to improving quality and reducing consumption. Improving individualized, customized and specialized resins may be the key direction for the development of some PVC enterprises in the future.
The development of PVC in China is undergoing a transformation from big to strong, from low-end products to high-end products, from simplification to diversification, but there is still a long way to go from a large PVC production country to a production power. PVC enterprises also need to enhance their independent innovation capabilities and increase the construction of talent teams. From auxiliary raw materials to process equipment, process control, to product packaging and transportation, and finally to downstream processed products, the improvement and improvement of the whole life cycle are formed. To achieve downstream verification and upstream, mutual promotion and common development and growth, to achieve high-quality green development of the industry, and to contribute to the strength of the chlor-alkali industry for the national industrial science and technology progress and industrial power.
