Information

  In recent years, most of the downstream products of acetic acid have been in overcapacity, and the news of outdated production capacity is everywhere, especially the traditional downstream of chloroacetic acid and acetate. At present, acetic acid-to-ethanol is a new downstream, and the news of production is increasing.

  Recently, news of the commencement of production of acetic acid downstream equipment has come one after another. Henan Shunda 200,000 ton/year acetic acid hydrogenation unit was put into operation in early June, Tangshan Zhongrong Technology 100,000 ton/year acetic acid hydrogenation unit was planned to be put into operation at the end of August The 100,000-ton/year sec-butyl acetate plant is scheduled to be put into operation in July, the Inner Mongolia Mongolian 200,000-ton/year vinyl acetate plant is scheduled to be put into operation in October, and the Inner Mongolia Shuangxin’s 100,000-ton/year vinyl acetate plant is scheduled to be put into operation in October.

  The above news seems to have obvious support for the future acetic acid market, which is good news for the current oversupply situation. Looking closely, most of the downstream products of acetic acid have been in overcapacity situation in recent years, and news of the elimination of backward production capacity is everywhere, especially the traditional downstream of chloroacetic acid and acetate. At present, acetic acid-to-ethanol is a new downstream, and the news of continuous production is increasing.

  One acetic acid to ethanol plant

  For glacial acetic acid, acetic acid to ethanol can be regarded as a new type of downstream development in the future. News of the acetic acid-to-ethanol plant continues to spread. From the production of Celanese's 275,000 tons/year plant in 2013, the total production capacity has now increased to 760,000 tons/year. The unit consumption of acetic acid-to-ethanol to acetic acid is 1.2. Therefore, this process consumes a large amount of glacial acetic acid. Especially in the current situation of overcapacity of glacial acetic acid, the industry is particularly concerned about the development of the acetic acid ethanol plant.

  New vinyl acetate plant put into production

  In the past few years, domestic vinyl acetate plants have undergone rectification and reshuffle, and backward production capacity was eliminated. Vinyl acetate products ushered in the spring of 2014. Due to the shutdown of two European installations at the end of 2013 and the overhaul of U.S. installations in the third quarter, the supply of overseas vinyl acetate fell sharply, and the domestic market took the opportunity to open up export channels. As a result, domestic vinyl acetate ended awkward situation with few exports.

  Changes in domestic vinyl acetate export volume

  With export support, domestic vinyl acetate sales have improved significantly. Compared with other downstream products of acetic acid, vinyl acetate is a better product. Product production profits are also high profits in the industrial chain. The data shows that in the first half of 2016, the calcium carbide method device had an average profit of about 500 yuan/ton. The average profit of the ethylene plant is also around 400 yuan/ton. Stimulated by this profit, news from both the new installations in Inner Mongolia and Xinwei in Inner Mongolia came into operation.

  Sec-butyl triacetate device

  In 2014, after the domestic sec-butyl acetate industry was eliminated, there were only more than ten companies, only 3-4 of which were left in operation and were in a low-load state. Therefore, the sec-butyl acetate market is not optimistic.

  Entering 2016, the sec-butyl acetate market still performed poorly. However, under the traditional low season, due to export support, manufacturers' market prices are relatively stable relative to butyl ester. But without the support of the oil market, it is difficult for sec-butyl acetate to continue its glory in 2012. Under this circumstance, it is not a wise move for Ningbo Daxie Huatai's 100,000-ton/year plant to be put into production.

  Overall, there is not much increase in the downstream of the acetic acid industry chain. In today's overcapacity of most products, acetic acid is also inevitable. Although the industry actively seeks a way out, the effect is not ideal. In addition, new types of downstream such as acetyl wood and acetate filament also need to be developed urgently.
