Estimated Sales
The scale of production: an annual output of 60,000 T phthalic anhydride, 60,000 T dioctyl (o-) phthalate, and 3,000 T fumarate, the by-product.
The domestic requirements for phthalic anhydride and its post-product dioctyl (o-) phthalate is concentrated in Zhejiang province. At present, factories in the country can afford to supply 60 percent of the total phthalic anhydride consumption for customers. Therefore, it is required to import them for 200,000 tons annually. The dioctyl (o-) phthalate is used as the plasticizing agent for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) product processing. The annual processing for PVC has exceeded 300,000 tons only in our province. As a result, the project would enjoy a brisk market.
It is predicted to make 788 million yuan in annual sales income with the annual profit of 87 million yuan.
