【Ferro-alloys.com】：November 24-25, 2024, academicians and industry experts and scholars from relevant research institutes, representatives of the upstream and downstream fields of the national boron industry gathered in Weihai, Shandong Province, to participate in the 2024 National Boron Industry Development Conference and the annual meeting of the industry, to discuss boron resource security, technological innovation, green low-carbon and recycling comprehensive utilization, and talk about the industry's sustainable, high-quality development plan.

Salt lake science and mineral deposit geologist, academician Zheng Mianping of the Chinese Academy of Engineering at the meeting for the “boron resources status and development trend” report said that at present, China's boron mineral product production enterprises, boron product type reached more than 50 kinds, high-end boron product type has a welcome growth, boron industry development momentum is good. China's boron ore types, resources, accounting for the world's fourth, but fewer high-quality boron ore resources.

Zheng Mianping pointed out that, according to the 2023 data statistics, China's boric acid import dependence of about 50%, borax import dependence of 90%. China's boron products manufacturer more, but the overall scale is small, difficult to play the group benefit. The world recognized volcanic sedimentary boron ore scale, good quality, and China has a good prospect of finding minerals, while continuing to play other types of resources to find minerals and development and utilization at the same time, the need for the relevant decision-making departments to pay attention to, grasp the main contradiction, take effective measures to mobilize the state and social forces, the establishment of a special green finding and development and utilization of the special, by all means, and focus on the advantages of the strengths of the force, and strive as soon as possible to make China's boron resources to achieve a major breakthrough! The following is a summary of the results of the study.

China Inorganic Salt Industry Association deputy secretary-general Li Xin asked the national boron industry enterprises a firm confidence, to the strong and line, the second is to develop and innovate, to the new and line, the third is to focus on improving the industry chain supply chain resilience and security level.

Li Xin pointed out that excellent enterprises, especially private enterprises have never been the strongest market competition, the future boron industry power building more need to have world-class competitive ability of powerful enterprises. Good enterprises never fear difficulties, never fear competition. To the strong, constantly strong confidence, strong technology, strong brand, strong management, strong industry chain, strong talent team, strong muscles and bones, hard work, long work, good work, good work, is always the way of survival and development of the enterprise invincible.

Li Xin analyzed that the future continue to meet the national strategic emerging industries and people's more environmentally friendly, greener, higher quality of life new needs, will be our industry “Tenth Five-Year Plan” and the future of the new task. Need more and more enterprises to the new quality of productivity, to the new consumer market areas, out of the industry price “involution” predicament, in the future of the industry high-quality development of the new pattern to reshape the enterprise's new kinetic energy and new advantages.

Li Xin pointed out that the security and stability of the industrial chain supply chain is related to national security, economic security, we must shoulder the responsibility of industry self-reliance and self-improvement of the top beam. Although China's boron products are more varieties, there are more than 50 varieties, boron industry chain is also basically complete and sound, but high-end boron products in terms of quality and variety, there are still large gaps, such as high-end boron nitride, high-end boron carbide, special anhydrous borax, high purity amorphous boron powder, high purity boric acid, high purity boron 10 acid, metal boride and other products are still not able to meet the high-tech electronics, military, nuclear and aerospace The demand of high-tech industries such as electronics, military, nuclear power and aerospace. China's boron resources of low grade, boron ore processing and utilization of high difficulty, high production costs of boric acid and borax, poor quality, lack of market competitiveness, production is declining. At present, the two boron products and high value-added boron products that have an impact on the country's major strategic needs are dependent on imports, and the problem of “choke point” is more prominent. This is precisely the direction of our efforts, and I hope that entrepreneurs in the field of boron industry will live up to the times, live up to the future, overcome these problems as soon as possible, and make breakthroughs in neck-breaking products, so as to make a new and greater contribution to the construction of boron industrial power.

Speaking of China's boron exploration and utilization of policy recommendations, Jiao Sen, Chief Engineer of the General Administration of Geology and Mines of Sinochem, made at the meeting, “China's boron mineral resources situation and potential analysis of the search for minerals,” the report pointed out that a major boron deposits in China to enhance the level of theoretical research on metallogenicity, to guide the deployment of boron ore search work; the Xinjiang sea-phase volcanics, Tibetan volcanic sedimentary boron mineral resources have great potential, the need to increase the degree of theoretical research on metallogenicity. Second, to increase China's major boron ore mineralization area (belt) exploration investment, focusing on strengthening the Liaodong - Ji Nan sedimentary metamorphic boron mine old mining area of the deep side of the Department of the attack to look for blindness; Tibet, Qinghai modern salt lake boron exploration; Xinjiang Urumqi, a seven corner wells of the sea-phase volcanic boron mine exploration. Third, to enhance the co-associated boron ore, difficult to select the type of boron ore type of comprehensive utilization level, focusing on Tibet, Qinghai modern salt lake type boron ore, associated boron ore, the main useful elements of the comprehensive utilization of technology and boron, magnesium and iron type boron and iron ore beneficiation process research, to enhance the level of boron, iron and other polymetallic comprehensive utilization.

China Inorganic Salt Industry Association Boron Chemical Branch Executive Vice President Han Guangqi pointed out in his speech at the meeting, boron is one of the most important elements in the earth's crust, but also the abundance of the element is not high, belongs to the important strategic resources, has become a key material for nuclear reaction control. Especially after the nuclear leakage accident in Fukushima, Japan, the safety and protection of nuclear power plants was mentioned in the new agenda, so that the necessity of nuclear boron product development and production is more prominent; 11B is an important component of high-end semiconductors and electronic chips; boron monomers are solid propellants for rockets and other aircraft, which are more superior than aluminum or magnesium; boron hydrocarbons are considered to be the most promising materials for hydrogen storage; boric acid, a variety of Boric acid, borates and borides are also known as “industrial monosodium glutamate”, and the development of boron industry is of great significance in solving energy crisis, guaranteeing national security and promoting high-quality economic development.

Han Guangqi called on boron industry colleagues to adapt to the changed policy environment, pay attention to technological innovation and institutional mechanism innovation, based on the domestic and foreign resources, based on the demand for market development, strengthen industry self-discipline, against the industry volume. To develop domestic and foreign markets, combined with the country's major strategic needs, the production of high value-added boron products and high-end boron containing new materials.

Qingzhou Ark New Material Technology Co., Ltd. technical vice president Xiao Bo at the meeting to analyze China's boron nitride production and application of the status quo and trends, said that according to the needs of the industry development at home and abroad, the company is market-oriented, and actively engaged in boron nitride related to the research and development of new products, new technologies, new techniques, promote the industry's technological progress and industrial upgrading, and enhance the competitiveness of enterprise products in the international market.
