Rare parks everywhere exacerbate overcapacity

"Rare park development disorder causes excess production capacity further." Rare Association Secretary-General Ma Rongzhang in an interview with reporters said. He said that since 2010, many areas of rare earth park planning and construction. The existing national park about 18 rare earth industry, similar to the planning of these parks, and many more resources at the core extends to midstream and downstream industry chain, involving separation of rare earth smelting, magnets, light function, hydrogen storage, polishing powder, rare earth catalysts and other major new materials, which will lead to the construction of the park of rare earth production capacity further overcapacity.

Rare industrial parks everywhere is the only rare earth industry overcapacity, a microcosm. In recent years, the rare earth industry capacity sprawl to the already fragile chain facing a new crisis.

From the authorities was informed that this year, rare earth Association conducted specialized research. Rare earth recycling business, for example, the survey showed that there were rare comprehensive waste recycling enterprises 55, of which 39 in Jiangxi, Jiangsu, 4, 3, Hunan, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, the two, Henan, Shandong, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Yunnan each one. Since 2011, the approval of the corporate assault around 90%, waste treatment capacity of 190,600 tons. Among them, the waste treatment capacity of 142,000 tons NdFeB, waste fluorescent powder processing capacity 23,100 tons, waste polishing powder processing capacity 21,500 tons, 04,000 tons of rare earth waste treatment capacity. At present, annual production of 80,000 tons NdFeB about 30% of total waste by only 24,000 tons; fluorescent powder production 05,000 tons, waste by 30 percent counted as 01,500 tons; polishing powder production 15,000 tons, It can be seen, rare earth recycling enterprise production capacity has far exceeded demand.

"At present, China's rare earth industry showed overcapacity is becoming increasingly prominent, companies large losses, operating rate of less than 30%, especially in the illegal enterprise under the impact of the whole industry competition is fierce." One Baotou rare earth enterprises responsible person "Economic Information Daily "correspondent said. These people admitted that China's rare earth companies a total of about more than 120 rare earth oxide production capacity equivalent to up to 32 million tons, in addition to foreign enterprises device production, market supply far exceeds about 12 million tons per year of total world demand, capacity a significant increase in domestic demand coupled with rampant illegal enterprises weakened, multiple factors have contributed to the domestic rare earth product prices fall, production and operation of the deteriorating situation.

It is worth noting, by the rare-earth prices and strict control policies to stimulate domestic and foreign resources, but also to accelerate the exploitation of rare earth rare earth facing severe domestic competition. Zhang, chairman of Baotou Steel Rare Earth, including a number who have expressed worries about rare earths, when the domestic rare earth prices will be a great impact on overcapacity problem will worsen. According to statistics, at present there are nearly 40 foreign countries, more than 200 companies planning more than 500 rare earth projects, including the United States, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Kyrgyzstan and other 15 countries, more than 40 rare earth project is progressing rapidly . U.S. molybdenum company's current production capacity has reached 5000 to 6000 tons, by the end of 2013 will reach 400 million tons production capacity; Australia Yalainasi factory in Malaysia last year, has successfully produced the first batch of rare earth products, its annual production capacity will reach a few years 22,000 tons, to meet about one-third of global demand. After 2015, only the United States and Australia that the two companies to meet global market demand outside China.

In this regard, Ma Rongzhang that, first we must resolutely combat black chain, as soon as possible metals regulations, a clear main responsibility to establish long-term mechanism to regulate rare earth production and management behavior. Secondly, as soon as possible on the rare earth waste recycling project for comprehensive rectification, combining guidance, regional planning, the establishment of regional recycling center, regulate rare earth waste production and business activities, incorporating industry regulatory category. In addition, you should strongly promote the use of rare earth balance. Especially lanthanum, cerium and other elements of an annual surplus surplus 30,000 to 50,000 tons, should be encouraged to lanthanum, cerium in the field of environmental protection, structural materials in applications such as water purification, denitration catalyst, UV protective glass, rare cast iron, steel, rare earth , rare earth magnesium, rare earth copper, rare earth and aluminum.
