Analyse China's Sodium Carbonate Industry

Sun May 18, 2008 9:00pm EDT
DUBLIN, Ireland--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c92065) has announced the
addition of "China Sodium Carbonate Industry Report, 2008" to their
offering.

   Calcined soda, namely sodium carbonate, is an important basic
chemical raw material and also a basic raw material for such
industries as building materials, metallurgy, and chemical. In the
recent years, the rapid expansion of sodium carbonate downstream
sectors has made China in short supply of sodium carbonate. Since
July, 2007, China has had a rise of nearly 30% in its export price of
sodium carbonate; however, its annual export volume has had a negative
growth trend.

   In the next few years, China's sodium carbonate demand will rise,
boosted by a rapid growth of production capacity of some downstream
sectors, including glass, inorganic chemicals and household
detergents. Based on the output growth of main downstream sectors, we
estimate the growth of China's demand for sodium carbonate in 2008 and
2009.

   Booming demand for sodium carbonate has stimulated many
manufactures to expand their production capacity. Based on the
production expansion projects of China key sodium carbonate producers
and the schedule to bring the projects into production, this report
estimates the capacity expansion of sodium carbonate and also predicts
output of sodium carbonate in 2008-2009.

   Based on the authoritative statistics from the National Bureau of
Statistic and the General Administration of Customs, backed by China
National Chemical Information Center, this report makes an in-depth
analysis on the current situation and a forecast of the development
trend of China sodium carbonate industry. Meanwhile, this report also
provides you with the information on business operation and
development trend of China nine key sodium carbonate manufacturers.
