HC1900-Activated Clay Grinding Mill

Activated clay has a microporous structure, and the appearance is a porous white-off-white powder, which is odorless, tasteless and non-toxic. As an adsorbent, activated clay has good adsorption, decolorization and filtration properties, and is widely used in food, environmental protection, chemical industry, medicine, cosmetics, petroleum, papermaking and other fields.

China's activated clay market is relatively fragmented, with a large number of low-tech and small-scale enterprises in the industry. Due to technical limitations, China's activated clay development and utilization started late, and the product quality is poor. The demand for high-quality clay relies on imports. In recent years, many foreign companies have set up factories in China to develop active clay resources. Against this background, the pressure of competition among domestic companies has increased, forcing companies to upgrade to high-end and intensive processing, which in turn drives the industry to develop for the better.

In recent years, thanks to the expansion of application fields and the establishment of factories by foreign companies in China, China's activated clay market has grown rapidly. In 2021, the market size of China's activated clay is about 1.57 billion yuan, and the demand has increased to more than 100 tons. It is expected that from 2022 to 2027, China's activated clay market will still maintain a growth trend, and the market growth rate is higher than the global average.

There are more than 50 activated clay production enterprises in China, but due to environmental protection policies, the maximum production capacity of activated clay is usually no more than 50,000 tons per year. Therefore, there are currently less than ten companies that dominate the market. China's activated clay production capacity is mainly distributed in Northeast China, North China, East China and other regions, and the total production capacity of the above regions accounts for about 70% of the country's total. With the advancement of science and technology and the release of demand, activated clay resources have gradually attracted the attention of countries around the world. From the perspective of production capacity distribution, activated clay production capacity is highly concentrated, mainly distributed in the United States, Spain, Mexico and other European and American regions, of which the United States is the world's largest activated clay. The production of white clay accounts for about 60% of the global output.

Activated clay has excellent adsorption, filtration and decolorization performance, and has a wide range of downstream applications. The market demand continues to remain strong, and the industry has a broad space for development in the future. In recent years, under the background of stricter environmental protection, the competition in the activated clay market has become increasingly intensified. In order to compete for the high-end market, deep processing technology reserves and new product research and development have become the focus of competition in the field of activated clay.

An important part of the production of activated clay is grinding.
