China Vanadium Operating Rate And Output In February 2020

www.ferroalloynet.com In February, affected by the new crown virus epidemic, ammonium metavanadate was generally shut down, and four factories resumed work at the end of the month, and more factories are expected to resume production in March. Large vanadium factories started normally, and some small factories were completely shut down in February, and they are expected to resume production in March. Many chemical V2O5 powder enterprises shut down, and a small number of factories resumed production at the end of the month. In February, ferrovanadium factories in the northern region were basically shut down, and about 80% of them resumed production at the end of the month. The operation rate of VN alloy manufacturers is relatively high. In the first ten days, due to the shortage of raw materials, some manufacturers have cut production and stopped production. In the last ten days, with the gradual recovery of logistics, production has returned to normal.
