Expect bio-based plastics production growth in 2020 to 3. 45 million tons1

China's trade remedy information network on August 21, quoted sinopec ( Stock! ) Reported, at present, only 5% of biological organic chemical industry base, is expected to double annual production of 2020. Bio-based plastics as a kind of important biological cornerstone industry products, is now growing rapidly, 6 times of the annual growth rate for oil plastic, 2020 annual output from 2. 33 million tons in 2013 is expected to increase to 3. 45 million tons.

the article, according to the biological base of organic chemical industry is on the rise. At present, the use of straw, corn cobs, straw, forest waste wood as raw material, the production of plastic, 1, 4 - Butanediol, biological base rubber, nylon, lubricating oil, spices, condiments, such as organic chemical products industry is developing rapidly. Currently, only 5% for biological organic chemical industry base, is expected to double annual production of 2020.

the bio-based plastics as a kind of important biological cornerstone industry products, is now a rapidly growing, 6 times of the annual growth rate for oil plastic, 2020 annual output from 2. 33 million tons in 2013 is expected to increase to 3. 45 million tons. At present, has been widely used in evian bio-based plastic and Coca-Cola beverages, biological base of disposable tableware also has a certain production scale.

the article also pointed out that biological organic chemical industry base in a foreign country after more than 20 years of development, has made great breakthrough. Biological organic chemical industry base in China starts late, but is not yet in full swing, with foreign development level and the larger gap.

the article puts forward Suggestions: ( 1) Development of biological organic chemical industry, raw material prices, stable supply is the key. So to research global situation, from agriculture, forestry department for proposed enterprise, built according to the scale, survey area can supply raw materials in different season, form a complete set of annual production, and transportation radius is smaller, the freight is reasonable. （ 2) According to the domestic existing foundation and the foreign successful experience, to accelerate the research and development, to establish industrial demonstration unit as soon as possible, such as ten thousand tons/year succinic acid, 10000 ~ 20000 tons/year of base plastic bottles, etc. （ 3) At the Chinese Academy of Sciences, institutions of higher learning, as well as enterprise institute, restructuring in the field of biological base of organic chemical characteristic research units, such as bio-based plastics research institute, bio-based fine organic chemical laboratory. This will help speed up the research and development, fosters the talent. （ 4) To stimulate the field of high-end talents make innovation talents, encourage positive input, accelerate, youth in talents cultivation, set up & other; Biological base organic chemical reward fund & throughout; 。
