China Drying News In 2012, PX deservedly became a hot word for Chinese public opinion. During the “two sessions†in Zhejiang Province, several officials’ representatives called on all sectors of society to “demonize†PX. Chen Tiexiong, deputy to Zhejiang Provincial People’s Congress and Secretary of the Taizhou Municipal Committee, said that the PX project in Taizhou must be launched. Some representatives also suggested that this matter should be viewed rationally under the precondition of protecting the basic interests of the people.
The Chinese name of PX is para-xylene, a low-toxic chemical substance that is flammable, toxic, irritant, and has irritating effects on the eyes and upper respiratory tract. At high concentrations, there is anesthetic effect on the central nervous system. Inhalation of higher concentrations of xylene may even cause acute poisoning.
In the “Two Conferences†of Zhejiang Province in 2013, Liu Liwei, deputy to the Zhejiang Provincial People’s Congress, Standing Committee of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee and Director of the Public Security Department, introduced that the Ningbo PX project had an annual production capacity of 600,000 tons. The government research team he personally participated in conducted a field trip and found that the gas produced by the project is colorless, basically odorless, and is completely exported through pipelines. The general public does not directly contact the gas.
Chen Tiexiong analyzed from the economic point of view that the PX project is a high-end project in the petrochemical industry. Right now, 40% of PX materials in China are imported, which is 6 to 7 times higher than domestic materials. He also said that the Taizhou PX project must be launched.
It is understood that in 2010, China has become the world's largest consumer of PX, accounting for 32% of the world's consumption. However, the huge demand gap has caused China to import large amounts of PX from abroad every year. Coupled with its own insufficient production, China has been forced to accept high prices on PX by companies such as Japan and South Korea.
Liu Liwei said that the completion of the PX project can drive the development of countless industries in the downstream, such as plastics, pharmaceuticals and many other areas require this leader. At present, China’s PX projects account for 50% of the domestic market, but with long-term negative resistance, its market share will continue to decline and even be occupied by other countries. “If we do not go ahead, foreign countries will have to hit China. ."
The international toxicity to PX has been highly toxic and low-toxic. It is known that PX toxicity is mainly chronic, so it is dangerous for people who have been exposed to it for a long time, and it has a mutagenic (abnormal) effect. It is called by the environmentalists as a great-grandchildren project. As a type of benzene series, long-term exposure to PX does not rule out the possibility of canceration.
The industry believes that the current control of pollution mainly depends on government supervision and corporate conscious. Qian Yanzhen, deputy of Zhejiang Provincial People’s Congress and chief forecaster of the Ningbo Meteorological Observatory, said that the government should pay more attention to the needs of the people while paying attention to economic interests. In her view, with the improvement of economic conditions and personal qualities, people's demands for health have also increased. How to find the balance between development and environmental protection has become the key to the government's implementation of sustainable development.
Zhang Xiaobin, deputy of Zhejiang Provincial People’s Congress and dean of the Ningbo Municipal Planning and Design Institute, also suggested that the construction of PX projects could be appropriately slowed down on the basis of ensuring the quality of life of local residents.
As a local official, Chen Tiexiong hopes that the PX project can be launched as soon as possible, but he also admitted that the government must have a long-term understanding of development, not only to let PX do it, but also to eliminate the people's concerns.
