China’s leading fertilizer producer Hubei Yihua Chemical Industry plans to build a 300,000 tonne/year PVC plant in Inner Mongolia.The plant would be constructed at Wusu city in northern China at an estimated cost of yuan (CNY) 1.4bn ($205m) and would take one year to complete.But when the construction would begin is still uncertain. The plant would use calcium carbide as the feedstock for cost advantage. Constructing the plant in Inner Mongolia ensures access to vast, cheap resources of raw materials like salt and limestone for PVC production.
