Chinese Coking Industry Association, honorary president Huang Jingan believes that the desulfurization waste liquor of ammonium thiocyanate, ammonium sulfate extraction is a very important chemical raw materials, especially thiocyanate, widely used in pharmaceutical and chemical intermediates and synthetic pesticides Tricyclazole, Ye Qing double and printing and dyeing auxiliary agent, flotation, pan has more application in the precious metal spinning solvent, rubber processing and photographic industry, the market capacity is very large. Ammonium sulfate is a common chemical raw materials and chemical fertilizer, sulfur is one of the most common chemical raw materials, has a very high value of industrial and agricultural use.

The composition of HPF desulfurization wastewater with inorganic salt, such as sulfate, sulfite, thiosulfate, thiocyanate, the other contains a small amount of tar and HPF catalyst, COD 100000mg/l above, ammonia nitrogen is greater than 45000mg/l, high concentration of pollutants, conventional treatment is difficult to meet the demand.” Chinese Academy of Sciences Institute of process engineering environment resource technology and engineering research group, Dr. Liu Chenming said, the development of a new desulfurization waste water resource process is imminent.

The new technology of exploration results

According to Dr. Liu Chenming, on the basis of comparison and Research on the traditional desulfurization wastewater treatment process, process engineering research China academy so FGD coking plant of Anshan Iron and steel as the research object, the development of the desulfurization wastewater resource utilization technology.

The new technology will first use of catalytic oxidation of sulfite and thiosulfate into sulfate, and thiocyanate precipitate separation and other substances, and thiocyanate precipitation combined into high added value and wide range of industrial uses Sodium thiocyanate And potassium thiocyanate. The desulfurization waste water after treatment, which was almost entirely by salt extraction, salt content is greatly reduced, can be used as desulfurization liquid for desulfurization of coke oven gas, so the desulfurization liquid can be used repeatedly.

Liu Chenming introduction, the research group in Angang coking plant test results showed that the process can produce 97% purity sodium thiocyanate product and nitrogen content can reach more than 20% products of ammonium sulfate, the catalyst can be recycled. Beijing City chemical products quality supervision and inspection station of chemical and plastic products inspection and testing center, resource and harmlessness of the process to achieve HPF desulfurization wastewater; and has practical application value to solve the environmental protection by desulfurization liquid, can be applied for industrial application. Environmental technology innovation

Coking Desulfurization Waste Liquor Extraction Technology was salt environmental technology, but to the Coking Desulfurization Waste Liquor Extraction of salt field hold feet, must according to the standards of environmental protection industry and coking enterprises more strict requirements for the advanced design.

We know that the traditional coking wastewater extraction technology to solve the mixed salt salt extraction from Coking Desulfurization Waste Liquor, but the extraction of mixed salt with the change of the downstream market is already saturated, do not sell out. At this time, if there is no deep processing, salt sold will become the new mixed pile up like a mountain hand, the burden of coking enterprises.

Fortunately, research institutions have developed mixed salt depth utilization process. The new technology gets rid of the disadvantages of traditional environmental protection technology, through the catalytic oxidation reaction of the mixed salt is further processed into higher value-added basic chemical raw materials, and through the improvement of chemical formula, can continue to adapt to market demand and produce more end products, the comprehensive utilization of desulfurization waste to the depth and breadth of development. This technology can achieve the sustainable development of environmental protection.

in November, plans to start.

Market summary: at present 5#C5 petroleum resin mainstream price 7400-9000 yuan / ton,

enterprises offer the overall stabilization, although the upstream raw material of carbon

five rose slightly, but due to the lower standard paint demand flat, and the northern

market cooling rapidly, the sharp drop in demand. In addition, the petroleum resin paint

sales flat, but the adhesive resin and high hydrogenation petroleum resin prices.

In addition, the first half of this year, in addition to Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia, the three largest rubber producing countries are at a stop cutting period, and producers in Indonesia has already formed the raw material cost is higher than the cost of the finished product sales will not hoard goods selling practice, not only can’t expect Indonesia glue to replace Thailand and Malaysia rubber, this wave of global production in the low period under the condition of the first half of 2017, the market supply will inevitably cause the shortage.

The situation is worse, the main component of rubber to natural rubber and synthetic rubber, rubber and tire as the main consumption areas, occupy the whole rubber consumer market 70% high proportion, and is mainly based on natural rubber as raw material, the tapping days plummeted, plus trees long submerged in water, may cause fine root tip, with necrosis or speed up the leaves and other phenomena, various factors are fully display the downstream tire factory for raw materials demand will gradually tight, the second season tire industry will face renewed fear because of the risk of rising raw materials, for the transfer of consumers and increase the price again.

Our country from Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia imports of natural rubber in the proportion of 75%, due to the small and medium-sized enterprises in market size, product competitiveness is insufficient and therefore can only attack the Dachang, low-cost market, but now the import of raw materials is high, already at the end of last year, will not be able to bear the price pressure, can not be passed on to consumers under the pressure, there is almost no the living space, so many small and medium China tire factory operating rate or production is facing the dilemma, however, it may also the government wants, is expected to trend toward integration, the bigger the fight against foreign enterprises.

It is foreseeable that in the tight supply of natural rubber, homeopathy also pushed up the upstream raw material butadiene ferocious rally, and butadiene rubber (BR) and styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) also continued to rise, so the synthetic rubber factory, it must follow the upstream price quotation to the downstream tire factory, this price trend is established next, whether domestic enterprises, foreign enterprises or domestic firms have been unable to load, have to rise to relieve the pressure of cost increases.

floods in Thailand in recent months, the subsequent impact is still spreading. The first half of this year, the increasingly tight supply of natural rubber, pushing up the tire manufacturing raw material – butadiene (BD) price skyrocketing close $3000 per metric ton mark, turns off the global tire manufacturers prices surge, whether foreign or domestic firms have been unable to load. The industry more rumors, foreign investment in the second quarter of this year will again raise price.

Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia as the three major natural rubber producing countries, in October last year when chanting to reduce exports, then the market rumors drop point in time is wrong, because in November, December and January is to produce more of the season, but the yield and export restrictions facing dilemma, although the market price rises, for the self-employed farmers concerned but will not stand, resulting in prices again back again, but in Thailand since last December has occurred in the first flood, then in January of this year is due to heavy rains floods, due to two consecutive floods are in the south of Thailand rubber producing areas, thus quickly push up the natural rubber price.

Natural rubber synthetic rubber tire mad angry outburst

According to the Thailand rubber Bureau data show that torrential rains and floods have hit southern Thailand since December 5th last year, there are about 6.5% of the rubber plantation was destroyed. In addition, the southern Thailand daily output of 10 thousand tons of calculation tapping in December last year to January this year, the cumulative loss of output has nearly 200 thousand tons.
