Date: Oct 24, 2018

www.ferroalloynet.com: Since environmental protection inspectorate to hold a new round of “look back”  in mid October in Liaoning and Sichuan Provinces, ferrovanadium enterprises in Jinzhou and Chaoyang and ammonium metavanadate enterprises in Guanghan, Deyang and Panzhihua are greatly influenced by environmental protection, but compared to last year, the environmental protection supervision strength is reduced. FerroAlloyNet only learned that two enterprises in Liaoning area, Beipiaowanhong and Jinzhou Hongding, shut down completely, and several others only suffered the production limitation. There is no enterprise required to suspend production yet in Sichuan Province, according to market sources.
