To foster the efficient and high-value utilization of phosphorus resources, eight government departments, including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the National Development and Reform Commission, have jointly issued the 推进磷资源高效高值利用实施方案 (Implementation Plan for Promoting Efficient and High-Value Utilization of Phosphorus Resources), which will be referred to as the “Plan” below.

China has recently released a plan to improve the utilization of phosphorus resources, aiming for greater effectiveness and efficiency in the years ahead. By 2026, the country is expected to see consistent improvements in the innovation, eco-friendliness and safety of its phosphorus chemical industry, coupled with a remarkable increase in the output of high-end phosphorus products, according to the plan issued by eight state organs including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the National Development and Reform Commission.

【知识要点】

磷矿是战略性的非金属矿产资源。磷化学品关乎粮食安全、生命健康、新能源及新能源汽车等重要产业链供应链安全稳定。工业和信息化部相关负责人表示,我国磷矿资源丰富,磷化工产业体系完整,是全球最大的磷矿石、磷化学品生产国。但磷矿综合利用水平偏低、资源可持续保障能力不强、磷化工绿色发展压力较大、磷化学品供给结构性矛盾突出等问题依然存在,制约着产业高质量发展。

In its development goals, the Plan proposes that by 2026, the ability to sustainably secure phosphorus resources will have been greatly optimized, innovation in the phosphorus chemical industry will have made steady progress, the environmental safety levels of this industry will have steadily improved, the supply capacity of high-end phosphorus chemical products will have been significantly increased, leveraging regional advantages and driving interconnected development will have become more robust, and the resilience and safety of the industry’s supply chain will have been further improved. Specifically: in terms of innovation-led development, breakthroughs will be made in a plethora of key technologies, including the efficient mining, clean production, and comprehensive utilization of phosphorus resources; in terms of structural innovation, there will be a marked improvement in the capacity utilization of traditional products such as ammonium phosphate and yellow phosphorus, and there will be a continuous optimization of revenue share of non-agricultural products such as phosphorus-containing chemicals and other products of high added value within the phosphorus chemical industry; in terms of green development, the proportion of ammonium phosphate production capacity that is above the energy efficiency benchmark will exceed 35%, while the rate of harmless treatment of newly added phosphate gypsum will reach 100%, and the comprehensive utilization rate will reach 65%; and in terms of ecological development, there will be around 3 top-tier phosphorus chemical enterprises, each of which will have industry leadership and global competitiveness, while around 3 advanced manufacturing clusters of distinctive character will be constructed.

In addition, the Plan outlines a series of measures from such perspectives as “strengthening resource security support,” “enhancing innovation and development capacity,” “optimizing and adjusting the industrial structure,” and “promoting safe and green transformation.”

【重要讲话】

要科学规划建设新型能源体系,促进水风光氢天然气等多能互补发展。要强化粮食和战略性矿产资源等生产供应,打造保障国家重要初级产品供给战略基地。

It is necessary to soundly plan and build a new energy system to promote the complementary development of multiple energy resources such as water, wind, solar power, hydrogen and natural gas. It is essential to strengthen the production and supply of food and strategic mineral resources, building Sichuan into a strategic base to ensure the supply of important primary products for national needs.
