Research on China Germanium Market, 2014-2018 - Emerging Opportunities, Trends, Size, Drivers, Strategies, Products And Competitive Landscape


Research on China Germanium Market, 2014-2018, focuses on the in-depth research on the market supply and demand, price trend, downstream demand, and business performance of key manufacturers as well as industry competition and industry chain. In addition, this report also analyzes the business performances of 7 key enterprises, including: Yunnan Lincang Xinyuan Germanium Industrial Co., Ltd, Yunnan Chihong Zn&Ge Co. Ltd, Nanjing Germanium Technology Co., Ltd, and Xilingol Tongli Ge Refine Co., Ltd etc.


As the typical scattered metal, Germanium is mainly hosted in varieties of metallic minerals and coal mines with the proved reserve of only 8,600 MMT (Metal Metric Ton) in global. In 2013, the global output of germanium was 151 t, up 8.6% over last year.

In which the output of Yunnan Lincang Xinyuan Germanium Industrial Co., Ltd was 62.7 t, accounting for 70.45% of total output in China. Because of the transfer of production line, Yunnan Chihong Zn&Ge Co. Ltd did not resume production until November 2013, and extracted about 2 t of germanium.

As an important rare metal, China has increased the strategic reserve of germanium, in 2013, China collected and stored germanium for 30t, which resulted into the shortage of supply and demand and decline of export. In 2013, the export volume of germanium was 25.82 t, of which, 16.19 t was exported to America, followed by Germany with export volume of 3.593 t.

Research and Investment Value Analysis of China Gas Station Industry, 2014-2018 - Research and Markets


Research and Investment Value Analysis of China Gas Station Industry, 2014-2018, systematically analyzes the latest external environment of gas station development in China, and summarizes the overall status quo of gas station market and the latest development of key enterprises in China, which provides references for understanding deeply development trend of gas station market in China.


With the open of finished-oil market and increasing of market participators, the homogeneity competition of finished oil has made its profit margin increasingly small; in addition, the same standard is executed in China, so the difference of people’s view on finished oil quality is diminishing. Many factors result into the fierce competition in terminal markets. The finished oil operators often sacrifice enterprise profits and launch price war and promotion war so as to keep markets and defeat rivals.

Estimated by Ministry of Commerce of China, by 2013, there had been 97,465 gas stations, in which, CNPC has 20, 272 gas stations, accounting for 20.80%, Sinopec has 30,536 gas stations, accounting for 31.33%, and other gas stations of different ownership systems account for 48%.

Next step: Government should encourage gas station to conduct marketing services focusing on oil metering, quality and specification, support new refueling survives, such as IC card networking, improve non-oil businesses, such as comprehensive servicing area, mobile phone and bank card payment, supermarket etc, and further extend retail terminal services.

Research and Investment Prospect of Chinas Biodegradable Plastics Industry, 2014 - Research Background & Research Ideas

China’s research and application of biodegradable plastics began in 1980s with the attempt to promote the industrialization of this product in China. Now, the premise is getting mature to promote the biodegradable plastics in a national scope. The consumption of plastics bags in China per year generally reaches 100 billion, equal to 5 million tons of petrochemical resin raw materials. The lack of scientific classified garbage collection and recycling system is a major reason to hinder the promotion of biodegradable plastics in China’s market, and the production cost of biodegradable plastics is much higher than traditional polyolefin plastics, so the competitive advantage of biodegradable plastics is not so obvious in the short run. Therefore, the policy support from the government will play a vital role in the future development of the industry.


At present, the operation and utilization of biodegradable plastics are highly recognized in various places in China. Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Hainan have launched pilot classified garbage collection and recycling system in each administrative region successively. Xinjiang, Northeast Region, and Yunnan, etc. have launched the pilot utilization of agricultural plastic films. Yunnan Provincial Government has issued regulations about the prohibition of production and sales of plastics, and this prohibition is about to be implemented on Jan. 1, 2015.

Although biodegradable plastics still cannot completely replace the common petrochemical plastics in some certain application fields due to the absence of some properties, in view of the future market space, experts believe that the application of biodegradable plastics in garbage bags, plastic films, and shopping bags, etc. will certainly represent a promising prospective. According to conservative estimation, the demand of biodegradable plastics in China will reach 3 million tons. Therefore, there will be millions of market spaces in China’s biodegradable plastics industry.

China is one of the most important supplying places for global biodegradable plastics products. According to rough estimation of Huidian Research, by the end of Jun. 2014, the production capacity of China’s biodegradable plastics amounted to 700,000 tons per year. With the painstaking efforts of Jilin and Yunnan Provincial Governments and the Central Government’s high concern about the environmental protection, many enterprises have begun to launch the construction and expansion of the production capacity of biodegradable plastics.
