Guiyang launches 10b yuan integrated circular project

The "Phosphorus-Sulfur-Titanium-Copper-Iron-Lithium-Fluorine" Integrated Circular Project broke ground on April 27 in Shuangyong village, Kaiyang county, Guiyang, Guizhou province.

The project will produce 1.4 million metric tons of ferrous sulfate heptahydrate, 400,000 tons of titanium dioxide, 600,000 tons of iron phosphate, and 600,000 tons of lithium iron phosphate. It will also produce 150,000 tons of lithium carbonate, 10,000 tons of lithium fluoride, 20,000 tons of lithium hexafluorophosphate, and 100,000 tons of copper.

The project includes gypsum decomposition for sulfuric acid production, cogeneration projects, and various auxiliary engineering projects to support these operations.

He Guangliang, head of Guizhou Phosphate Chemical Group, said, "With this project, our new energy sector will achieve self-sufficiency in lithium, iron, and titanium resources. The surplus lithium carbonate and ferrous sulfate heptahydrate will be available for other new energy enterprises within the province."

The project seeks to integrate phosphorus, titanium, lithium, and fluorine resources, enabling deep processing and maximizing resource utilization through industrial chain coupling.

The project is also expected to attract leading titanium dioxide enterprises to Guizhou, creating opportunities for the province to expand its titanium dioxide industry and related sectors.
