In terms of output, in 2021, China’s ferroalloy output was 34.196 million tons, down 6.5% year on year; In 2022, China’s ferroalloy output will be 34.755 million tons. In terms of exports, China’s ferroalloy exports will reach 920000 tons in 2022, with a year-on-year increase of 95.6%; The export value was US $2.353 billion, up 180.9% year on year.
China’s ferroalloy production enterprises are mainly distributed in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Inner Mongolia, Guangxi and other provinces and regions rich in water or coal resources. With the rapid growth of production, the variety and quality of ferroalloy products have also adapted to the new needs, and have been continuously expanded and optimized. China’s ferroalloy products cover a variety of composite alloys such as manganese, chromium, silicon, tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium, titanium, nickel, phosphorus, and have formulated national, industrial and enterprise product standards and agreement standards. China is relatively rich in resources such as vanadium, titanium, tungsten, aluminum, niobium and rare earth. Therefore, we should deeply study the treatment and utilization of “poor, miscellaneous and fine” domestic manganese and chromium ores and the combination and utilization technology of imported ores based on our own advantageous resources. According to the needs of domestic and foreign markets and users, we will develop vanadium, titanium, tungsten, aluminum, niobium and rare earth ferroalloys, and develop a variety of multiple composite deoxidizers, alloying agents, inoculants and powders, cored wires and other products, so as to form a complete set of Chinese ferroalloy product system.
