Abstracts

In the first quarter of 2007, China accumulatively produced crude oil 46,041,000 tons, up 1.5% from the same period of 2006, and concentrated nitric acid (converted into 100%) 475,000 tons, growing by a year-on-year 14.4%. Production of organic chemical raw materials was fast growing; especially production of fine methanol, which grew by quite a large margin; but output of glacial acetic acid was less than that of the same period of 2006. The output of fine methanol was 2,356,000 tons, up 48.2% from the same period of 2006; the output of chemical pesticide raw materials (converted into 100%) accumulated to 353,000 tons, up 20.3%; and the output of synthetic resin and polymers accumulated to 7,233,000 tons, up 19.7%.
