On July 10, 2025, Wuxi - Faced with the dual pressure of EU carbon tariffs and domestic "dual carbon" targets, China's gas-phase white carbon black industry has achieved a transformation from "high pollution and high energy consumption" to "green and intelligent" through process innovation and digital transformation. According to data from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, by 2025, the energy consumption per unit product in the industry will decrease by 28% compared to 2020, the carbon emission intensity will decrease by 35%, and the proportion of green products will exceed 60%, becoming a benchmark for the "dual carbon" practice in the field of inorganic silicon materials.


Technological innovation: cost reduction and efficiency improvement through circular economy model
The traditional sulfuric acid process is facing elimination due to high pollution and energy consumption, while new precipitation technology is becoming mainstream. The integrated device of "tail gas electrostatic dust removal deacidification tower chlorine gas analysis tower" developed by Shandong Dongyue Organic Silicon Materials Co., Ltd. has increased the recovery rate of chlorine gas and hydrogen chloride in the tail gas of gas-phase white carbon black production to 99.5%. The treated product gas only contains O ₂, CO ₂, N ₂, completely solving the problems of traditional processes such as inability to recover hydrochloric acid dust and excessive chlorine gas in exhaust gas. In addition, the "rice husk ash replacing quartz sand" technology adopted by Quecheng Group's Thailand base has reduced raw material costs by 25% and carbon emissions by 40%, providing the industry with a circular economy model of "turning waste into treasure".


Digital transformation: intelligent manufacturing enhances industrial efficiency
The intelligent factory built by Lianke Technology with an investment of 120 million yuan uses AI algorithms to control the reaction temperature and flow rate in real time, improving the uniformity of product particle size to 99.5% and increasing the yield rate by 12 percentage points. According to statistics, the penetration rate of intelligent manufacturing in the industry is expected to reach 35% by 2025 and exceed 65% by 2030. The "sulfuric acid waste heat power generation system" developed by Black Cat Co., Ltd. has increased energy utilization to 85%, and the electricity consumption per ton of product is 18% lower than the industry average. Its "low rolling resistance rubber formula" combined with highly dispersed white carbon black has increased the range of electric vehicles by 8% -10%. The related technology has been applied to Tesla Model Y, BYD Han and other models.


Standard leadership: China's technology defines global rules
In the global competition, Chinese enterprises have shifted from "participants" to "leaders". The application specification for precipitation method white carbon black in lithium-ion battery separators, led by Jin Sanjiang, has become a draft ISO international standard; Wang Yuelin, President of Yichang Huifu Silicon Materials Research Institute, presided over the completion of the international standard ISO 18473-3:2018 "Gaseous Silicon Dioxide for Silicone Rubber", ending the history of European and American companies monopolizing the formulation of standards for a long time. At present, Chinese enterprises have taken the lead in formulating 3 international standards and 12 national standards in the field of gas-phase white carbon black, significantly enhancing their technical discourse power.


industry outlook
With the deepening of the "dual carbon" policy and the commercialization of new technologies, gas-phase white carbon black will be deeply integrated into strategic emerging industries such as new energy, semiconductors, and biomedicine. It is expected that by 2030, the proportion of high-end products will increase from the current 42% to 65%, and the industry profit margin is expected to exceed 25%, becoming one of the most investment worthy tracks in the field of inorganic silicon materials.
