Over the next decade, as long as the entire market is large enough to support mining and expand sucessfully, graphtie powder production capacity will continue to grow. New increased graphite capacity will cover current losses due to engineering errors caused by mining capacity of 100,000 tons of graphite. According to industry analysts, graphite product development will commence in ten fields in the world. Meanwhile, in the national building materials Bureau as the world’s largest producer of graphite, China accounts for 40%~50% of the total production of the world in recent years. The world’s second producer in India, in the past more than 10 years, graphite production accounted for about 15%. Other State-owned Brazil (7%), Mexico (6%), North Korea (6%). Graphite combined output of the above five countries accounted for more than 75% of the world production.
If in the future the world graphite market environment to continue towards a favorable direction, graphite production will increase, especially in Brazil, and Canada, and India and Mexico. The total is expected to increase by 120000 tonnes. “XV” planning under the guidance of the direction of deep processing of graphite is presented in, in China in the next five years focusing on the development of deep processing of graphite products are shaped carbon and fluorinated graphite, siliconized graphite tube graphite, lithium-ion batteries, carbon materials, carbon materials for fuel cells, and so on.
In addition, China’s production of graphite products there were still large gaps, and development work done. For example, 1000 nuclear power plants in the world, at present only three, while national planning will be built 23, its nuclear imports essentially all of pure graphite.
