Development of vanadium and titanium earth can not take the old road

Anshan Iron and Steel Group, Panzhihua Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. and Guangzhou Nonferrous Metal Research Institute recently signed a strategic cooperation agreement, both sides will work to Panzhihua vanadium-titanium magnetite ore separation and new materials critical to the core, common technology research and industrial applications, joint training, gathered vanadium and titanium resources comprehensive utilization of R & D personnel, comprehensive utilization of Panzhihua vanadium and titanium resources to provide scientific and technological support.

Vanadium, titanium is extremely versatile metals. Vanadium is mainly used to improve the performance of steel alloy after processing is used for high-end aerospace titanium aerospace, military and other fields. With the rapid development of new energy sources and improve the performance requirements of steel, very broad prospects for the use of the two materials. However, since the 1960s, since the presence of vanadium and titanium industry on the extensive mode of development, technological bottlenecks, energy conservation pressure, institutional innovation shortage.

Panzhihua vanadium and titanium resources that China has the largest number of iron and steel enterprises in recent years in the development and utilization of Panzhihua Iron and although a lot to explore, made a number of breakthroughs, but utilization is still facing many difficulties.

"Vanadium special metallogenic mechanism and complex mineralogical composition, so that it is difficult to extract vanadium and titanium. Moreover Panxi (Panzhihua, Xichang) of vanadium-titanium magnetite ore are depleted, and foreign bonanza majority, we have no ready-made extraction techniques can be applied, and even can learn very little. "experts believe.

In addition, environmental protection is also constrained vanadium and titanium industry development bottleneck. Vanadium and titanium industry pollution stress, environmental costs are high, the same production line, to consider and do not consider environmental costs, the construction price gap can be up to several times. Environmental costs drove up prices. Some small businesses took the opportunity to drill environmental loopholes, products with low price to win, destroy trade order.

While a variety of enrichment opportunities and resources reserves, while the overheated investment, recycling level is not high and species structure is irrational, vanadium and titanium extensive resources development and industrial development have become increasingly prominent.

Comprehensive development and utilization of vanadium and titanium, must take "open joint, collaborative research," the road of innovation

From the moment Panzhihua Iron and Guangzhou Nonferrous Metal Research Institute signed a strategic cooperation agreement, to March this year, Anshan Iron and Steel Group Corporation signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, to August last year, the NDRC issued "comprehensive utilization of vanadium and titanium resources and industrial development," second five "Plan" (the "Plan"), a series of actions show that the comprehensive development of our firm, the use of vanadium and titanium resources determination.

"Planning" to define the strict market access, implementation of financing policies to maintain pressure, strict land-use management and encourage the implementation of measures such as tailings waste utilization. With the "planning" escort, Panzhihua City, the further implementation of innovation-driven development strategy, accelerating the development of vanadium and titanium billion industry, building a clean, green "vanadium and titanium are."

"Vanadium and titanium resources is limited, if the long-term exploitation of the blind, who can not guarantee that it will be the next rare earths." Lange Steel Information Research Center analyst Dr. Wang Guoqing, China's rare earth as a big country, resource reserves and supply on the global market volume accounted for 23% of the world and 90%, but the early years of the development of the disorder, the use of low-level, leading to serious waste of resources, environmental pollution increased. And over-reliance on exports of rare resources are properly once sold a "carrot price."

Yao Lin said, comprehensive development and utilization of vanadium and titanium, just rely on the enterprise is difficult to complete, we must adhere to the "open joint, collaborative research," the road of innovation. According to the agreement signed with the Chinese Academy Angang, the two sides will establish a personnel exchange attachment mechanism, timely formation of joint laboratories, research and development center.

From central to local, from leading companies to research institutes, the introduction of a series of policies and measures for gradual implementation, indicating that China is moving in the scientific, rational use of vanadium and titanium resources direction.
