Output as a percent of midyear capacity. Midyear capacity is the average of the capacity at the beginning and the end of the calendar year. million tons in 1972, indicating a utilization rate of 90% of capacity (see Table 3). This utilizaition rate is comparable with that of other countries.] Plans for expansion at existing plants should add at least 750,000 tons per year of new capacity by the end of 1973, which would raise total capacity to about 18.5 million tons and output to about 16.5 million tons. 3. The modern sector operated well below capa- city during the economic retrenchment of the early 1960s, and production was disrupted during the Cultural Revolution (1966-69). Since 1969 a step-up in production has taken up this slack; output has increased almost twice as fast as capacity. future growth in output must come from additions to plant capacity. Recent construction activity has required a 7%-10% annual increase in output of high-quality cement, and new uses for cement have been developing. With a scarce timber resource base, cement is increasingly replacing lumber for 1. For example, the average for 1954-68 for Brazil was 87%, varying from 79% to 94%.

The Small Plant Sector 4. In the past few years, Chinese public state- ments on the cement industry have stressed the importance of the small plant sector. These state- ments indicate that the "over 2,400" small cement plants produced almost one-half of total national production in 1972. Since 1965 the average annual increase in output from these small plants has been four times that of the modern sector -- 23% for small plants, compared with nearly 6% for large plants. 5. The small plant program was a Leap Forward project, which fell into disuse during the early 1960s when many of the plants were abandoned. The output of the small plants, revived during the Cultural Revolution, has grown at an average annual rate of 31% since 1969. By the end of 1971, China had 1,800 small plants, and an additional 600 were built in 1972. An increase in efficiency is indi- cated by the estimate of average output per plant in 1972 of 5,960 tons (see Table 4), compared with the 1971 average of 5,400 tons. Concurrent with the growth of the number of plants and the increase in output per plant, the grade of output has im- proved to more usable levels. The average grade of cement2 produced in small plants, which was 150 in 1960, has been raised to about 400. Although not sufficiently strong for major loadbearing structures (grade 500 or better is needed for bridges, buildings, etc.), this cement is good enough for rural hydrology projects, sidewalks, and surfacing of floors in buildings and tunnels. 6. The growth of the small plant sector, which frees the modern sector from pressure to supply cement for rural use, allows larger amounts of high-quality cement produced in modern rotary kilns to be supplied for military and industrial con- struction. The Chinese claim that 70% to 80% of the output of small plants goes to the agricultural sector. 2. The grade is a quality measurement. Grade 400, when made into concrete, will withstand a pressure of 400 kilograms per square centimeter. 4 Approved For Release 0 / R PP79T01098A000100100001-4 Approved For Releasee tDP79T01098A000100100001-4 China: Small Cement Plants and Production 1972 Thousand Metric Tons Region and Number of Estimated Average Province Small Plants Output Output Total 2,4001 14,3002 5.96 Northeast 2663 ???? ????

The geographic distribution of modern cement plant capacity has altered strikingly during the last two decades. In 1949 the modern cement capacity was concentrated in the northeast and along the coast, with little or nothing in interior provinces. New plants have been built in the regions that were cement deficit. Production in the interior regions has now been adjusted so that the proportion of modern cement capacity approximates the proportion of population except in the north region. The north region, however,.is compensated for this deficit by a disproportionate number of small plants (see Table 5). As an example of the magnitude of this China: The Cement Industry -- Regional Statistics 1972 Region Total Number of Small Plants Total Capacity of Modern Plants Population) Land Area Total 100.0 100.0 100.0 100.0 Northeast 11.1 17.1 8.6 12.6 North 29.3 15.4 26.4 11.6 East 10.42 16.6 17.2 3.8 Central 5.8 12.1 13.3 5.9 South 13.42 11.9 11.2 6.0 Southwest 3.6 18.0 17.0 25.2 Northwest 20.5 8.7 6.3 34.9 Unlocated 6.03 "" 1. Population is based on 1957 estimates. 2. The small plants in these areas appear to have higher than average yearly outputs, compensating in part for the lower percentage figures. 3. Most of the unlocated plants are probably in the central and southwest regions. change, the industrial northeast, which had 42% of modern capacity in 1952, has seen its share fall to 35% in 1957, 28% in 1965, and 17% currently. Although changes of this size are not expected for the future, development will continue for the areas that now have to bear high freight charges for cement. In Tibet, which has no modern plants, the price of cement can be as high as five times the ceiling price in the vicinity of a modern plant -- the Approved For Release 28 51A t P79T01098A000100100001-4 CJNFER Approved For Relea_e(2HUMXN.'k IAJ DP79T01098A000100100001-4 difference being due to motor vehicle transport charges. 8. The majority of small plants are in areas that have little modern capacity, such as the underdeveloped northwest.3 While a greater num- ber of small plants are distributed in the cement- poor regions, considerable variation exists among plants in levels of output. The 491 small plants in the northwest have a yearly output averaging between 1,200 and 1,700 tons, whereas the 250 plants in the eastern region average more than 11,000 tons. These figures indicate that the most efficient plants in the small plant sector are concentrated in the eastern and southern regions. The east, with 10% of the small plants, produced 20% of the small plant output in 1972, whereas the northwest, with 20% of China's small plants, produced only 6% of the output. 3. Because capacity figures are not available for small plants, the number of plants is used as a less accurate -- but available -- substitute. 7 Approved For Release ,,, f J ,gJNP&; P79T01098A000100100001-4 Approved For Release 2000/05/15: CIA-RDP79TO1098A000100100001-4 Confidential Confidential Approved For Release 2000/05/15: CIA-RDP79TO1098A000100100001-4 Approved For Release -B' /fig/iV iT1hbla79T01098A0001001000.01-4 CHINA: THE CEMENT INDUSTRY IN 1972 1.
