Recently, President Xu Dianli Xu of China Refractory Materials Association made a report on “China's Refractory Industry in Structural Optimization” at the 8th Magnesia Refractory Expo. The report mainly introduces the general situation of China's refractory industry and the current situation, and proposes China's refractory materials are reflected in industrial upgrading and structural optimization, and the problems in the current economic operation of the refractory industry have been interpreted.

President Xu mentioned that in 2018-2019, the output of China's refractory products maintained a high level. In 2014, the output of refractory products showed a slight decline. The main reason for the decline was 2000-2014, steel, glass, etc. Overcapacity in the infrastructure industry and refractory consumption decreased. The daily consumption of refractory materials has not decreased. In 2018, there were 17 refractory enterprises with a main business of more than 1 billion yuan, and their operating conditions and operating quality reached a record high. In terms of exports, the export volume of alkaline products, aluminum-silicon products and other refractory products is about 2 million tons.

China's refractory industry has its own unique industry advantages. First of all, it is a resource advantage. The world has proven reserves of magnesite is about 12.625 billion tons, of which China's magnesite reserves account for 28.85% of the world's reserves. Secondly, it is the market advantage. The output of steel, cement, glass and non-ferrous metals ranks first in the world for many years and requires a large amount of refractory materials. Talent advantage: China has the largest number of professionals engaged in the refractory industry in the world. There are more than 500 graduates of refractory materials every year. The first line of the University of Technology and Science and Technology of Wuhan University of Science and Technology has refractory materials, integrating production, study and research. Technical support for the development of the refractory industry. At the same time, President Xu also mentioned that the current industrial concentration is low, malicious competition, market order disorder, etc., especially in management, many companies are now more extensive in cost management and quality management, and there is a big gap with the West.

In recent years, the development level of China's refractory industry has gradually improved, and the concentration of the industry has been improved through mergers and acquisitions. The sales income of the previous 10 companies is an example. In 2018, the sales of the top 10 companies were 10.626 billion yuan, while in 2018, It reached 27.249 billion yuan. In the first half of this year, two companies broke through 2 billion. The top 10 companies in this year are expected to exceed 30 billion. It shows that the production concentration is gradually improving, and the profit level has also improved. In 2018, through the investigation of the operation status of 68 key refractory enterprises, the output of refractory materials was 942.05 million tons, an increase of 4.29% year-on-year, and the sales revenue was 55.728 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 38.67%. The profit was 4.372 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 96.89%, the profit level increased by a record high, and the overall operating conditions performed steadily.

In terms of energy saving and emission reduction of magnesia refractory products, Xu Huichang should be strictly implemented in accordance with the “Mineral Refractory Industrial Air Pollutant Emission Standards” formulated by Liaoning Province, which is in compliance with the standards and must be strictly produced. The implementation of the shutdown policy, in order to control the market supply of magnesium products, also allows local companies to operate in accordance with the law.
