Titanium industry green development technology breaks foreign monopoly
The company group is a large-scale chemical enterprise group mainly engaged in the deep integration of titanium and zirconium industrial chains and the research and development and manufacturing of new materials. It was listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 2011.
SINOWIN New Materials, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the group, was established in May 2016 and mainly produces titanium dioxide. Its products are not only the first in domestic sales, but also exported to more than 100 countries and regions in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe.
The entire group has always placed technological innovation and green development at an important position. Nowadays, while the green circular economy continues to broaden the road of green and high-quality development of SINOWIN New Materials, it has also become an important support for the group's green development.
It is understood that there are two processes for titanium dioxide, sulfuric acid method and chlorination method, and the chlorination method is recognized as the most advanced clean production process for titanium dioxide in the world. Under the guidance of the group, in recent years SINOWIN new materials have tried boldly, actively explored, and first grasped the initiative of chlorination titanium dioxide technology, successfully implemented and promoted in production.
Regarding the influence of the group’s technology, the chairman of the group proudly said: “We dare to be the first in the world and become the first domestic enterprise to successfully implement the chlorination process technology. A leader in the green development of the titanium industry."
The reporter learned that compared with the traditional sulfuric acid process, the chlorination process is more green and environmentally friendly, with 80% reduction in waste residue emissions, comprehensive energy saving of 30%, and water saving of 50%. The environmental benefits are very significant. At the same time, the product quality has also been improved, and the performance has reached the import standard, breaking the monopoly of foreign companies and being recognized by the market.
"The company has invested a total of 3 billion yuan in the production technology of titanium dioxide by the chlorination process. The first phase is 100,000 tons/year and the second phase is 200,000 tons/year. The two projects were completed and put into production at the end of 2016 and May 2019, respectively." This is of great significance for improving the company's market competitiveness of titanium dioxide products and improving the overall quality level of domestic titanium dioxide, and then guiding the development of domestic titanium dioxide industrial technology to a chlorination process with high resource utilization, good product quality and low three waste emissions.
The company group has now formed a complete industrial chain of "titanium concentrate, reduced titanium, high-titanium slag, titanium dioxide, and sponge titanium", has built China's largest industrial chain chlorination production base, and opened a large-scale boiling chlorination process in China The first in the production of titanium dioxide.
