"Utopian Market" Disturbing Tungsten Market (Tungsten Heater)

tungsten heaterXu Gao, one of the China Finance 40 Forum (CF40) -Youth Economist members, chief economist of Everbright Securities, indicating that the recent China's economy is in transition, many people do not understand the current economic situation. The understanding of China's economic situation from different observers from different perspectives will be quite different. Xu Gao thinks that the biggest risk of current Chinese economy is "utopian market." Over the past few decades, in order to achieve economic growth, China did many efforts in market reform. In this respect, China has made no small achievement, which made market-oriented direction become popular.

Some people think that market-oriented reforms should be accelerated, the sooner the better. They believe that the reason why the current chinese economy is now in such complex state is that the market-oriented reforms have not yet to a certain high level. These people hold the view that the market should be opened up and let the market adjust spontaneous for overcapacity, high debt and other structural problems of chinese economic. In this process, those overcapacity, high debt tungsten enterprises will be out of the market, leaving those more promising, more healthy tungsten enterprises.

Through such "cleaning", the chinese economy will be able to get rid of a heavy burden, leaving a strong team. Xu Gao considered this idea as "utopian market", which is too idealistic and not realistic considering the complexity. In fact, history proves that such a utopian policy cannot achieve the desired results, and even bring disaster to the economy of countries. If such thinking continues to develop and expand, it will only continue to interfere the development of the tungsten market (tungsten heater element), and it cannot keep the stable economic growth for a long-term. Therefore, China should be more pragmatic to promote a progressive reform idea.

Britons’ Historic Poll to Leave EU Affects Gold Market

The result for British voters elected to leave the European Union(EU) has been announced today, which will have far-reaching repercussions both domestically and internationally, and immediately plunged the 28-member political and economic union into its worst crisis since it was founded.

The vote result was at times bitter and acrimonious. The Leave campaign, headed by former London Mayor Boris Johnson, took 51.9% of the vote to the 48.1% that the Remain campaign, headed by Prime Minister David Cameron. According to British Broadcasting Corporation, 72% of the electorate voted.

The result had an immediate effect on the financial markets, with the pound plunging to a 30-year low against the US dollar and the Euro, Europe’s single currency, slid 3% against the US currency. The US has for years had British membership of the EU a core part of its European policy, while the UK and China are experiencing what Cameron and President Xi labeled “a golden era” after the Britain last Oct., when deals worth 40 billion sterling were announced. Now the referendum result to leave the EU is affecting the gold market greatly, which will lead the gold price to a increasing tendency apparently. It is said that gold, as a favorable hedge investment, will be more and more popular by the investors, which will push the gold price moving up.

 

Steel & Coal Industry Sewage Charge Collected Inspection, Tungsten Trioxide Denitration Catalyst Has Good Prospect

Recently, the Ministry of Environmental Protection decided to organize the steel and coal industry sewage charges levied special inspection work. This work will be carried out in violation of state regulations approved pay reduction, or postponement of the sewage charges or exemption from sewage charges will be according to the law and the State Treasury does not fulfill management responsibilities sewage charges levied competent environmental protection department staff carrying out checks, if the circumstances are serious, someone shall be given administrative sanctions according to the law; and if constitutes a crime, someone shall be held criminally responsible according to the law.

It is understood that, this time of the inspection, the sewage charges levied situations of the sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, dust, soot and other pollutants of the steel and coal industry are the focus. This time, if the company which is found to be necessary to collect the sewage charges during the inspection, but actually don’t; or the actual emissions are clearly incompatible with the approved emissions, then the on-site verification should be carried out, and relative evidence shall be collected, and to re-approve the emissions, re-collect sewage charges. Furthermore, the state requires all localities use this opportunity of special inspection to re-establish and account the discharging pollutants’ types and quantities of the steel and coal industry of their own administrative area, and effectively improve the collection rate of the sewage fee.
 
From a macro look, this time, China is taking the "real thing", and really determining to deal with the problem of pollution of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, thus, tungsten trioxide denitration catalyst at this juncture will have excellent prospects. In industrial, the currently widely used of denitration process is SCR technology, which the core technology is the denitration catalyst. This catalyst takes vanadium pentoxide as the main active component, titanium dioxide as the carrier, and tungsten trioxide as the additive to play the role of anti-sulfide, anti-sintering of the carrier. Tungsten trioxide denitration catalyst is known as the most widely used SCR catalyst with the relatively high efficiency of denitration and the most stable performance, therefore, it has very extensive application on the flue gas denitration of the steel industry and coal-fired plants. In addition, tungsten trioxide is also often involved in the production hydrodesulfurization catalyst, as a main active material to performance an efficacious effect.

 

Tungsten Trioxide Photocatalyst Eases Groundwater and Soil Pollution

On June 23rd, the fourteenth session of the Shanghai Municipal People's Congress of the thirtieth session "(Revised Draft) Shanghai Environmental Protection Ordinance" for the water pollution problem, the Committee believed that, at presently the phenomenon of secretly pouring and discharging of the production waste-water in the shipping out is quite serious, and seriously affecting the safety of drinking water. People can not live without water, the production waste-water directly discharge may not only cause groundwater pollution, but also cause serious soil pollution. In view of the current Shanghai sewage pipe network construction is quite completely, the forbidden on the production waste water treatment by shipping out has practice feasible.

photocatalyst purify water and soil pollution
 
Recently, with the soil pollution around schools and other news was broken, soil pollution has already caused public concern. Soil pollution can be divided into two categories of inorganic and organic pollutants. Inorganic pollutants include acids, alkalis, heavy metals, and radioactive elements; organic pollution is mainly organic pesticides, petroleum and urban sewage, sludge and so on. Compared to the atmosphere, water pollution, the soil problem has the properties of hidden, hysteresis, accumulation, regional and irreversibility, therefore, its governance is difficult, and requires a long term. However, I think the key in the soil pollution is the prevention, what is to say the source control. Production and domestic waste water, sludge and other emissions are the major cause of soil pollution.
 
Tungsten trioxide has a narrow band gap, can effectively respond to visible light; as a photocatalyst, it can be used to treat the polluted water which contains organic and inorganic pollutants. Studies have shown that the photocatalytic of tungsten trioxide photocatalyst can solve the problem of pollution chromium, mercury, lead and other heavy metals; moreover, it also plays an extremely high utility in COD removal and organic matter degradation of the polluted water.

 

Desulphurization Industry Continues Expand, Tungsten Trioxide Desulfurization Catalyst Market Growing

tungsten trioxide desulfurization catalystWith the more stringent standards of Chinese air pollution regulations, the next 5--10 years will be the key period for Chinese air pollution control, the growth rate of market capacity will continue to maintain of around 10%. Statistics show that, in 2015 China's air pollution control industry scale was over 130 billion RMB, of which about 18.7 billion RMB belongs to desulfurization industrial, the scale of denitration industrial was about 75 billion RMB, industrial scale of dust removal was about 430 billion RMB. In 2014, the thermal power industry desulfurization market size was 168 billion RMB, building materials, chemicals, nonferrous metals, petrochemical, and other non-thermal power desulphurization industry market size was about 54 billion RMB.
 
Judging from the emission source of sulfur, China mainly emissions the sulfur dioxide, "2015--2020 of China desulphurization industry market supply and demand forecasting and market special research report" showed that the Chinese sulfur dioxide emissions was 20.439 million tons, which reduced by 3.5% compared to the previous year. At present, the desulphurization business is mainly directly expanded to the industries of thermal power plants, steel and cement ect.. China currently has nearly 80% of the electric power is coming from thermal power which takes coal as the raw material, large amounts of harmful gases (such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, etc.) discharged into the atmosphere through the chimney, causing the pollution of the surrounding environment, resulting in human respiratory diseases and crop failures, etc. .
 
Desulfurization and denitrification technology is the best way now available to effectively control sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides and other harmful gases, in which desulfurization catalyst is used as a core technology in desulfurization technology. The surface of tungsten trioxide desulfurization catalyst has tension, which can reduce the surface tension of the limestone slurry and the radius of the critical nucleus, thereby strengthening the bisulfite to be oxidized and to precipitate gypsum, thus to realize reducing emissions. Hydrodesulfurization catalyst is presently the most widely used in this industry, which is added the mainly active components of tungsten trioxide, cobalt oxide ect., and aluminum oxide as the carriers, and then prepared by drying and calcining; it plays an extremely important role in industrial gas desulfurization, diesel cracking, gasoline hydrotreating and other areas, therefore, tungsten trioxide catalyst desulfurization market will continue to expand.

 

Tungsten Trioxide Photocatalyst Helps Village Polluted Water Treatment

According to E20 Institute survey shows that, in the end of 2015, China has 607.6 million rural population, more than 2.7 million distributed in natural villages, the annual generated polluted water has amounted to about 10 billion tons. Because the village polluted water treatment facilities has the problems of ubiquitous network construction imperfect and low levels, so the rural polluted water treatment rate is still less than 10%, which means that there are still a large number of untreated polluted water random emissions. When you walk through the village enough, you will find that most of the village even has no garbage, let alone what the polluted water treatment facilities; moreover, most of the villagers believe that it is enough to discharge the polluted water and other rubbishes directly into the river and just flow them away, no more action is excess? Furthermore, this concept is widespread in the village areas. Thus, compared to the current more than 90 percent of urban polluted water treatment rate, the countryside polluted water treatment works has a long way to go; it not only requires the government pay attention to it, and strengthen the construction of infrastructure, but also, the vast and most long-term project is to deeply root the environmental protection concept in the hearts of every citizen.

Experiments using photocatalyst under light conditions, to carry out photocatalytic degradation of the life wastewater, and found that due to the COD concentration domestic polluted water are low, therefore, nano photocatalyst is more suitable for processing. Tungsten trioxide photocatalyst has been shown in using for degrading organic pollutants, and play a good effect, include: degradation of pesticides, bleaching treatment, water purification and so on. Furthermore, as a catalyst, the tungsten trioxide photocatalyst itself is not consumed, and can be long-term viability.
 
The crystal structure of the tungsten trioxide is monoclinic, the photocatalytic activity caused in this state has a good effect on the responsive of visible light, and being a good performance of the photocatalyst. In particular, nano tungsten trioxide because of its large specific surface area, the surface effect is remarkable, is a good catalyst, either can be suggested as the primary catalyst, but also as the co-catalyst, and has a high selectivity on the reaction.

 

The Seventh National Congress of Nfsoc would Save Tungsten Market (Tungsten Heater)

In June 15, the seventh national congress of Nfsoc was held in Beijing. China Nonferrous Metals Industry Network reported that President Chen Quanxun said that The Nonferrous Metals Society of China (Nfsoc) is an important force in China's nonferrous metals industry. Since the Society was established, it always adhere to the principle of service, play an important role on the bridge link, science and technology think tank, leading innovation, which has won recognition and trust of companies in this filed. The current development of China's nonferrous metals industry is stagnation, and it is facing slower growth, reduced investment, decline in exports, decreased efficiency and other severe problems, in short, the recent nonferrous metals industry is experiencing difficulties, for these serious problems, the meeting put forward the corresponding measures, which will has a good promotion effect for nonferrous metals industry in the future, such as the development of tungsten market (tungsten heater).

The president Chen Quanhui emphasized that as an industry-wide science and technology academic organization, Nfsoc shoulders the sublime historical task of technological innovation, the society should lead the development of China’s nonferrous metals industry. Song Jun, who is the party member of China Association for Science and Technology and ministry of Academic department, also said that it is time to organize the good innovation activities to stimulate the create enthusiasm of science and technology workers. In addition, enterprisers themselves should innovate in, producing, marketing, service, research and development, finance, human resource, which would directly promote the development of the tungsten market (tungsten heater). Ma Xiaohe, the well-known expert and the president of the Academy of Macroeconomic Development of China, was also invited to this meeting to do the report for the current economic situation and the supply-front economics. This is undoubtedly in rescue the tungsten market in dire straits.

Waste Tungsten Trioxide Denitration Catalyst Included China Hazardous Waste Management

regenerated denitration catalystDuring the period of 2013 to 2015, the main dynamic development of Chinese desulfurization and denitration industry are:
(1) Environmental bursts "three gold medals", the especially emission limit helps the birth of "ultra low emission";
(2) Coal-fired power industry is still the focus and leading industry of electricity desulfurization and denitration, coal-fired power plants’ ultra-low emissions have formed a culture;
(3) Waste denitration catalyst will be included in the national hazardous waste management; moreover, the zero discharge of desulfurization wastewater has attracted attention, numbers of power plants have carried out zero discharge of wastewater;
(4) Desulfurization and denitration market expanded to non-electric industry, industrial boiler is the focus, steel, cement, and kiln ect. will be strengthen supervision, to encourage the industry with the capacity of using clean coal to use more coal, and also restrict the arbitrary use of coal.
 
According to the "National List of Hazardous Wastes", hazardous waste (form of solid or liquid) is as following:
1. Corrosive, toxic, flammable, reactive or infectious and other one or several hazardous characteristics;
2. Do not exclude hazardous properties, and may cause harmful effects on the environment or human health, which needs to be managed following hazardous waste.
 
Denitration catalyst is the core of SCR system, the current international widely used is taking vanadium pentoxide as the main active substance; titanium dioxide as the carrier; tungsten trioxide (or molybdenum trioxide) as an assistant, plays the role of anti-poison, anti-sulphuric, anti-sintering of the carriers; also adds the other adhesive components. In the running of tungsten trioxide denitration catalyst, due to fouling, abrasion, alkali metal poisoning, catalyst will cause deactivation, and affects the denitration activity.
 
Due to the abandoned denitration catalyst contains highly toxic of vanadium pentoxide, which will cause great harm to the environment and the human body, and belongs to the category of hazardous waste; if it is not been well handled, a huge potential harm will cause on the environment, and also cause a great waste of resources. Common treatment includes landfill, incineration and recycling, wherein recycling is the most promoted way, the comprehensive recycling can not only solve the pollution problem, but also making the recycling of resources (such as tungsten, vanadium, titanium and other metals) at the same time, therefore, its research has very practical significance.

 

Development of Tungsten Carbide Used for Mining

Recent years, since the development of mining and energy exploration as well as some large-scale infrastructure construction projects, tungsten carbide for mining, such as tungsten carbide buttons, bits, picks, mills, DTH drills and some supporting tools has been widely used and the market demands increased gradually. With the rapid development of metallurgical industrial technology of our country, in gas, fuel oil, natural gas drilling, some demands of mechanical mining equipment and large and medium pore diameter drill with carbide ore also increased. Mining tools take advantage of WOB and rotation of the impact load itself broken rock, drill and buttons during operation when subjected to high impact loads at the same time by twisting, bending, stretching, compression and other complex stress. And it subjected to the wear and corrosion by rocks, rock dust, mineral water, etc. at high-speed rotation. So it requires that tungsten carbide used for mining not only has high hardness and toughness, but also has good wear and corrosion resistance.

In order to combine wear resistance with toughness, relevant researchers develop many new types of carbide, such as ultra-fine or nano cemented carbide, high-temperature powder based carbides, functional gradient tungsten carbide, low-Co and coarse grain carbide, double binder phase and double crystalline structure, etc. Double binder phase was developed by American company, which fully dense WC-Co pellets embedded in Co matrix to remain the similar wear resistance of common alloys. The binder phase can be any bonding metal, alloy or another kind of cemented carbide.

The most outstanding characteristic is that the hard phase is not a hard compound (WC), which is composed of refractory metal compound and Co sintered hard material into crystalline pellets (WC-Co) composition and mixed with binder metal for secondary sintering. Compared with most of double phase tungsten carbide, double binder phase carbide has greater design freedom (size, hardness, toughness, strength of base and so on), which has been widely used in rolling cutter bits, impacting bits, dragging bits and other tools. Double crystalline tungsten carbide is also called as non-uniform grain carbide. Since the WC grain size distribution curve has two peaks, it can be also known as bimodal-structure tungsten carbide. This kind of structure coarse grain WC can provide good ductility and toughness, and a certain proportion of fine grain WC is able to provide high wear resistance.
