Phosphorus chemical industry: 17 years of phosphoric acid "involuntarily", how to be 18 years

However, with the start of the raw material plant in the first half of May, the cost of electricity prices has decreased, and the high-end price of yellow phosphorus has begun to fall sharply. As a result, the price of phosphoric acid has also started to fall off the cliff, and the down channel has not been until mid-July. Closed, the price returned to around 4,600 yuan / ton at the beginning of the year.
Until the end of July, the price of raw yellow phosphorus continued to rise, and the cost of phosphoric acid market supported. The price of phosphoric acid enterprises rose, especially the price of phosphoric acid producers in the raw material producing areas was more frequent. In some areas, the downstream market kept buying and not buying down. The enthusiasm for on-market purchases and sales has improved slightly. The next August-October environmental inspection was more stringent, and the phosphoric acid plant was started by the movie star. The price continued to rise due to the supply and raw materials. In November, the price of yellow phosphorus continued to rise, but the price was too high, causing huge cost pressure on acid enterprises. In addition, the wet acid shocked the market. At this time, the new single transaction in the market was not good, especially the southwest main producing area and Guangxi export. Manufacturers, sales pressure is quite large. In December, the price of yellow phosphorus fell, and the cost pressure was slightly reduced. However, at the end of this year, the enthusiasm for buying and selling in the market remained normal, and the industry kept the buying and buying, and the market remained weak.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the end of January 2018, the Lunar New Year is coming soon. From the point of view of the phosphoric acid market at the beginning of this year, the market demand for thermal acid enterprises is still not very optimistic. Zhongyu Information believes that the thermal process phosphoric acid is more mature than the wet process acid, and the product purity is high. It is easy to further purify and produce high-purity grade products; while the wet process phosphoric acid is more environmentally friendly than the thermal acid, and it is low in energy consumption and low. Cost, able to use low-grade phosphate rock, although the two production processes affect each other, but they are irreplaceable. The downstream phosphate market is sluggish, which makes the overall demand decline year by year. The contradiction of excess phosphoric acid capacity is still a major problem that phosphate manufacturers need to face. Under the negative factors, the acid market rebound is more difficult.
