China Tuxede Calls for Exemption of High Titanium Slag Tariff

Imported high-quality raw materials, but because of the name with the word "slag" was requested by the customs department in accordance with the "residue" to pay the appropriate tariffs, thereby affecting the overall development of China's titanium dioxide industry. To this end, the China Coatings Industry Association submitted to the National Tax Committee the "Report on Requesting the Exemption of Customs Tariffs from Imported High-titanium Residues and the Establishment of Import Tariffs for High-titanium Residues".
According to the China Coatings Industry Association, high-titanium slag is neither waste nor a by-product, but is a high-quality raw material for the production of titanium dioxide. Some experts said that the amount of titanium dioxide consumption has become an important indicator of the economic development of a country and the level of people’s living consumption. In 2005, the production of titanium dioxide in China reached 700,000 tons, accounting for 1/6 of the global total and apparent consumption of titanium dioxide. Although China has proven reserves of 965 million tons of titanium, there are not many available high-grade titanium resources. During the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period, it is estimated that the cumulative total production of titanium dioxide in China will reach 3.7 million to 14 million tons. Therefore, about 4.4 million tons of ilmenite or 2.8 million tons of high-titanium slag should be imported from abroad as a titanium resource shortage in five years. Added.
The content of selected ilmenite sand is about 45%, and the content of high titanium slag is more than 7%. Compared with ilmenite, titanium dioxide produced from high titanium slag not only has high product quality, but also reduces acid consumption by 40%, power consumption by about 20%, and water consumption by 30% during the production process. At the same time, it basically eliminates The production of ferrous sulfate solids.
However, this kind of titanium-rich material with environmental protection advantages, which can save resources and energy—high-titanium slag, because it has no import tariff number in China, was imported by the Ministry of Customs and requested by the “residue residue” or “unlisted chemical industry. "The goods" impose tariffs ranging from 4.5% to 6.5%. Compared with the import of zero-tariff ilmenite, this has seriously affected the enthusiasm of titanium dioxide production enterprises to use high-titanium slag, and has also caused adverse effects on the development of China's titanium dioxide industry.
It is understood that foreign countries usually include high-titanium slag in the "2614" (Titanium ore and its concentrate import tariff serial number) tariff range, or separate special tariff code number, the implementation of zero tariffs. According to industry sources, the use of imported titanium slag as substitute for ilmenite to produce titanium dioxide complies with national industrial policies. It is hoped that the relevant authorities will pay attention to solve the tariff problem of high titanium slag as soon as possible so as to better utilize foreign mineral resources and realize the titanium dioxide industry. Sustainable development.
