On May 24 this year, Zhuang Yuequn, secretary of the Maoming Municipal CPC Committee and chairman of the standing Committee of the Maoming Municipal people's Congress, pointed out at the meeting of the standing Committee of the Maoming Municipal CPC Committee that the construction of projects such as the upgrading and transformation of Maoming Petrochemical and the Titanium Valley in South China should be speeded up to speed up the construction of a modern industrial system supported by the real economy. When investigating Guangdong Yueqiao New Materials Technology Co., Ltd., Maoming Mayor Wang Xiongfei pointed out that the titanium-zirconium new material industry has a broad blue ocean and has a bright future, and enterprises should continue to play an innovative role, master more invention patents, speed up product iterative updating, constantly extend the industrial chain, upgrade the value chain, and create superior industrial clusters.
From the establishment of the project in May this year to now successful land acquisition, the project has run out of "speed", which is enough to see Maoming's determination to develop titanium-zirconium new materials industry.

New industry, new track.
This year, in accordance with the idea of "planning a plan, attracting investment, introducing an enterprise, developing an industry, and building an industrial chain", Maoming High-tech Zone proposes to build a "32nd" industrial park, including green chemical industrial park, titanium-zirconium new material industrial park, integrated circuit and electronic information industrial park, power battery four major materials and new energy storage industrial park, photoresist and advanced new material industrial park. To create the main position and main engine for industrial development.

Among them, the planned area of titanium-zirconium new materials industrial park is about 10000 mu, and three industrial agglomeration areas are planned and built, including titanium-zirconium mineral processing and intensive processing, high value-added plates and downstream industries. mainly develop titanium-zirconium whole industry chain, rare earth scandium aluminum alloy and other advanced metal new materials and downstream equipment manufacturing industry.
Titanium applications are mainly concentrated in chemical industry, aerospace, warship, nuclear power and other fields. In recent years, China has shown rapid growth in the output and consumption of titanium and titanium dioxide, and there is great potential for the development of titanium industry.

Reduce titanium.
Zirconium is mainly ceramics, cutting tools, decorations and even military, nuclear power and other fields. China's zirconium industry is mainly zirconia production, and the production capacity and output of chemical zirconium industrial products rank first in the world, but the production, application, science and technology of high value-added zirconia and composite zirconia structural ceramics are mainly concentrated in Japan and the United States. China's self-sufficiency rate is less than 10%.

Zircon sand.
Facing the demand and breakthrough of the development of titanium and zirconium industry, Maoming High-tech Zone sees a new development space from Guangdong Yueqiao New material Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as Guangdong Yueqiao).
At present, Guangdong Yueqiao has an annual processing capacity of 300000 tons of ilmenite (80, 000 tons of zircon sand, 30, 000 tons of natural rutile, 120000 tons of ilmenite, 3000 tons of monazite) and 80, 000 tons of reduced titanium. as well as 200000 tons of artificial rutile, 100000 tons of iron oxide red and 50, 000 tons of activated carbon, it is the largest titanium-zirconium concentrator in China at the present stage. It provides a solid foundation for the development of titanium-zirconium industry chain in Maoming High-tech Zone.

At this year's high-quality industrial development exchange meeting of Maoming High-tech Zone, the main leaders of Maoming High-tech Zone stressed that it is necessary to strengthen the leading role of the park chain and leader, strengthen industrial linkage, and fully activate the "partition effect." to extend the chain and supplement the strong chain for the advantageous industries in the region, and expand the potential energy of industrial development.
Develop a new racetrack for titanium and zirconium industry and shape new advantages in industrial development. In May this year, Maoming High-tech Zone built a titanium-zirconium new material industrial park, nurtured and strengthened the titanium-zirconium new material industry, with Guangdong Yueqiao New material Technology Co., Ltd. as the main chain enterprise, make a good job of the development trend, development path and industrialization chain of titanium-zirconium new materials industry, and promote the development of titanium-zirconium new materials downstream industry and equipment manufacturing industry.

Industrial park industrial chain
At present, Maoming High-tech Zone has formed a clear construction idea, planning 10,000 mu titanium-zirconium new material industrial park, building titanium-zirconium mineral resources and mineral processing products deep processing zone, chemical materials zone, high value-added new material zone three industrial agglomeration zones, focusing on the development of artificial rutile, titanium dioxide, titanium, lithium iron phosphate and other key products To create the only all-titanium industrial chain ecological circle from titanium ore, artificial rutile, titanium materials and titanium downstream industries, to realize the sharing of titanium and zirconium resources, the seamless link between upstream and downstream industries and the joint development of the industrial system, to form an industrial chain development pattern of "one industrial park, one large industry, multiple industrial chains, one large cluster, multiple small clusters".

Titanium zirconium products production and processing equipment.
The construction of the titanium-zirconium new material industrial park is divided into two stages. in the first stage, the planning and construction of 30, 000 tons of advanced titanium materials and titanium equipment project and its supporting 500000 tons of high-end titanium-rich materials project, 200000 tons of new energy cathode material lithium iron phosphate project and its supporting 200000 tons electronic grade iron oxide integration project, 1 million tons of rare metals separation and intensive processing project, the total investment is about 12.257 billion yuan, covering an area of 1421 mu After completion, the total annual output value is about 30 billion yuan, and the industrial added value is about 6.7 billion yuan. "the main task of the first stage is to make efforts in the manufacturing of artificial rutile, titanium materials and titanium equipment at both ends of the titanium industry chain, and to rapidly rise a titanium-zirconium new material industrial park in the high-tech zone."
