Titanium Production: United States, Russia, Japan and China dominating the semi-finals

Because smelting technology is complex and difficult process, currently only the United States, Russia, Japan, China, the four countries to grasp the full titanium industrial production techniques, the formation of the semi-finals dominating the landscape of the world. Also in Europe, although no titanium sponge industry, but titanium processing and application technology in the world advanced level. Ukraine and Kazakhstan inherited the former Soviet Union part of titanium sponge industry.

Titanium processing timber producing countries including China, the United States, Russia, Japan and Europe. Since 2010, Chinese production of titanium mill ranks first in the world, Baoji Titanium Valley is famous for the country. With the global economic recovery, civil aviation began a slow recovery, which led to titanium demand growth in 2010, the global titanium sponge and titanium mill production was restored. 2011 global titanium sponge production reached 206,000 tons, an increase of 29.2%. 2011 global titanium mill production reached 148,000 tons, an increase of 32.5%.
