According to the figure, 3,690 tons of ferrovanadium (about 1030 tons of ferrovanadium 80#) should consume 4,308 tons of V2O5 flake, and 5,235 tons of vanadium-nitrogen should consume 7,413 tons of V2O5, total need 11,721 tons of V2O5. In October, some export orders in the international market, together with long-term orders, are expected to be about 300 tons, 150 tons of V2O5 flake have arrived at the port in the import market, the total consumption of vanadium pentoxide is approximate 12,021 tons. Market gap is about 2616 tons of V2O5. Some ammonium metavanadate and ammonium polyvanadate can offset the amount of vanadium pentoxide.
