The Main Problems of China Tungsten Industry Development (2)

The main problems of China tungsten industry are excess production capacity, striking industrial structural contradictions, scarce R&D ability of high-grade products and input-output ratio of resource is not high. Besides, production cost increase, low international competitiveness, during industry development imbalance, discordant and unsustainable deep-rooted problems and constrictions are more prominence. What’s more, the consciousness of environment protection has enhanced, so China tungsten industry have to change traditional development patterns which depends on consume resources, increase production and sacrifice environment so that China tungsten industry can not only follow international tungsten industry development pace but also can develop better. As below I will more specifically introduce the main problems of China tungsten industry development.
1. Low-level redundant development, acute overloads production contradiction
According to statistic, in the end of 2014, China produced ammonium paratungstate 214,000.00 ton, tungsten powder 762,000.00 ton, tungsten cemented carbide 411,000.00 ton, tungsten wire 35 billion meter, and ferro tungsten 30,000.00 ton on the other hand, the rate of capacity utilization is 41.1%, 49.87%, 63.75%, 63.75%, 45.14% and 19.00% respectively.
2. Low industry contraction, development quality and benefit
China has lot of tungsten companies, but they are scattered, small and weak and this situation is not fundamental change. Besides, industry contraction is low and international competitiveness is not high. According to statistic, in 2013, 193 tungsten companies annual average production was less than 500 ton. Only 21 tungsten company annual production was higher than 1000 ton accounts for 50.28% of production. In 2014, only 3 tungsten companies produce more than 1,000.00 ton cemented carbide accounted for 45.7% of production. And the sales revenue of tungsten cemented carbide was 22 billion RMB and benefit was less than 1 billion RMB.
