✦ Synopsis
years. Of course, this synopsis overlooks the very rapid expansion in TiO 2 pigment production in China, Saudi Arabia and Ukraine.
'Informations Chimie' quotes DuPont with an estimate of China's current level of TiO 2 pigment consumption at 600,000-800,000 tonnes/y. This is much higher than Millennium's estimate of 400,000 tonnes/y, though admittedly that figure referred to full-year 2003. China's TiO 2 supply/demand balance will be radically altered when DuPont's 200,000 tonnes/y plant comes onstream at DongYing. According to 'IC', this should be achieved in 2010, assuming that all the approvals from the Chinese Government are granted in a timely manner.
