The environmental storm has come again, and the situation of powdered SMEs is grim.

Only half a month after the last round of environmental storms, a new round of environmental storms has hit! Since this month, the Ministry of Environmental Protection will be on Hunan, Anhui, Sichuan, Shanxi, Shandong, Tianjin, Hainan, Liaoning, and Jilin. Three months of inspectors in 15 provinces including Zhejiang, Shanghai and Fujian!

Today is not April Fool's Day, the above things are true...

At the two sessions that just ended, Li Keqiang said that the whole society will make unremitting efforts and the blue sky will surely increase year by year. The country is becoming more and more strict with the environmental protection policy. With the deployment of the “Blue Sky Defence War” and other deployments, the environmental storm has a broader scope and greater intensity. The small and medium-sized enterprises in the powder industry have become “environmentally friendly” due to their own shortcomings. The biggest victim of the storm.

SMEs face severe forms

Among the first batch of central environmental inspectors conducted last year, a total of 207 cases were investigated and 310 people were detained; 3422 were accountable and 2176 were interviewed. The second batch of central environmental protection inspectors who ended the end of the year accepted a total of more than 33,000 reports from the masses, imposed more than 8,500 cases and fined more than 440 million yuan, set up more than 800 investigations, detained 720 people, interviewed 6,307 people, and held accountants 6454. people. It can be seen from the situation last year that environmental protection is not just talked about. This year as an important year of the 13th Five-Year Plan, the wind of environmental protection will intensify, and the situation is increasingly severe for the majority of SMEs.

When the first wave of environmental crisis opened since the strikes, forced by a strong environmental crackdown, upstream mining companies, paint companies downstream plastics business, corporate titanium white powder, calcium carbonate business ...... formalities are not perfect, there Polluted, all shut down! In just half a month, thousands of factories across the country were shut down, and many bosses who had just embarked on the road to entrepreneurship were pushed to the brink of death.

The regulation of business in the vast majority are SMEs, compared to large enterprises, SMEs updates or additions become the new environmental protection facilities cost burden, large enterprises can rely on bank loans, working capital and scale advantages, more relaxed Achieve environmental upgrades. However, small and medium-sized enterprises originally have a large part of high-pollution and high-energy consumption facilities. Due to the increasing number of homogenized products in recent years, the vicious competition between enterprises in small and medium-sized enterprises, low-cost competition has led to sharp decline in profits, and it is difficult to Upgrade environmental protection facilities. The majority of small and medium-sized enterprises have become the "direct object" of the environmental storm.

The “environmental storm” has led to an increase in the price of raw materials. The rise in prices is likely to cause the phenomenon of reluctance to sell. SMEs need to raise prices on the one hand, and on the other hand cannot guarantee on-time delivery. At this time, customers will look for new suppliers. . In the first and second time, orders will be transferred from small and medium-sized enterprises to large enterprises with more supply guarantee and bargaining power. Large enterprise raw material procurement has obvious futures attributes, while SME raw materials are generally available for purchase. Futures trading can reverse the process of spot trading, that is, no goods can be sold first, and no goods can be bought. Therefore, when raw materials rise sharply, the raw materials used by large enterprises are still the prices before the price increases, and the cost advantage comes out. The days of small and medium-sized enterprises are even more difficult.

Industrial upgrading under the environmental storm

"This is the best era and the worst era." It is appropriate to use this sentence to describe the survival of small and medium-sized environmental enterprises in the current powder industry. Environmental protection, energy conservation and emission reduction are the inevitable roads for the development of the entire environment, but the harsh environmental storms bring more than just bad points.

First of all, for the entire powder industry, this is a big "transformation", which is conducive to the industrial upgrading of the entire industry. Secondly, for enterprises, it is not only a trend, but also a business opportunity to achieve transformation and upgrading, to seize opportunities, change development models, and take the green economy. For long-term development and growth of small and medium-sized enterprises, it is necessary to achieve a "win-win" environment and economy, and through transformation and upgrading, eliminate backward production capacity and increase economic and social benefits.

Taking paint companies as an example, the competition of coatings companies is becoming increasingly hot, and the homogenization of products is serious, accompanied by fierce price wars. The environmental protection storm is conducive to the elimination of high-energy backward production processes and the closure of small and medium-sized enterprises that violate the law and regulations. It can make room for the release of advanced production capacity and return the entire industry to the state of normal product quality.

Summary The future "environmental storm" may become the norm, which is a fatal blow to those small factories that have no core competitiveness, especially the previous "costs" by price. SMEs under the environmental storm face more challenges, and relevant industry players should be prepared to meet the challenges.

Inconel Heat Exchanger Tube

INCONEL®

Yuhong Group supplies Inconel® alloys C-276, HX, 22, 600, 601, 625 & 718 in the form of Plate, Sheet, Bar, Wire, Pipe, Tubing, Pipe Fittings, Flanges and Electrode.

The registered trademark name, Inconel, is applied as the prefix name to more than twenty different highly corrosion resistant high temperature strength metal alloys produced by Special Metals Corporation. These Inconel alloys or superalloys are nickel-based alloys that exhibit traits such as high resistance to corrosion, oxidation, carburization, pitting, crevice, corrosion cracking, and high temperature strength. Often, Inconel is referred to as [Inco".

Alloys of identical chemical and mechanical properties are available from other manufacturers and offer excellent alternativesto the various Inconel® brand alloys.

The corrosion-resistant superalloys are widely used in extreme environments where tremendous heat and corrosion resistance is paramount to the integrity of the end product. Chemical processing, nuclear, petrochemical, aerospace and marine industries widely use these superalloys.


What are the Characteristics of Inconel ?

Good resistance to acids, such as sulfuric, phosphoric, nitric, and hydrochloric
Almost completely free from chloride induced stress corrosion cracking
Excellent mechanical properties at both extremely low and extremely high temperatures
Outstanding resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion and intercrystalline corrosion
High resistance to oxidation at elevated temperatures


In what Applications are Inconel alloys used ?

Chemical and petrochemical processing
Components where exposure to high mechanical stress and sea water are required
Flare stacks on offshore oil platforms
