1. Status and Analysis of Industry Development in 2010

(1) Analysis of Industry Development Environment in 2010

In the face of the extremely complicated domestic and international economic environment, severe natural disasters and various challenges in 2010, China has accelerated the transformation of its economic development mode, strengthened and improved macroeconomic regulation and control, and played its role as a market mechanism. The overall performance of the national economy is good. In 2010, China’s GDP was 397.983 billion yuan, which was calculated at a comparable price, which was an increase of 10.3% over the previous year. The annual consumer price was up 3.3% from the previous year.

In 2010, China’s investment maintained rapid growth. In the urban fixed asset investment, the primary industry investment increased by 18.2%, the secondary industry investment increased by 23.2%, and the tertiary industry investment increased by 25.6%.

On April 16, 2010, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Environmental Protection jointly issued the "Environmental Protection Industry Equipment (Products) Catalogue for Encouraging Development (2010 Edition)", environmental monitoring instruments, water pollution control equipment, and air pollution. Eight major categories of environmental protection equipment and products such as management equipment are listed as environmental protection equipment (products) that the State encourages to develop.

On October 18, 2010, the State Council issued the "Decision on Accelerating the Cultivation and Development of Strategic Emerging Industries." It lists the energy-saving and environmental protection industry as one of the seven strategic emerging industries that the country will focus on cultivating and developing at the current stage, by 2020. Energy-saving and environmental protection industries have become the pillar industries of the national economy.

In 2010, the Ministry of Environmental Protection successively issued the “Notice on the Assessment of the Construction of the Total Pollution Source Reduction Monitoring System in 2010” and the “Notification on Strengthening the Validity Audit of the State's Key Monitoring Enterprises' Pollution Source Automatic Monitoring Data”,” The 2010 National Environmental Monitoring Work Points and other documents have put forward higher requirements for the automation, stability, and accuracy of environmental monitoring equipment, and have also promoted the development of monitoring industry operation services.

(2) Analysis of the overall operation of instrument industry in 2010

Analytical instruments have a wide range of applications covering China's industrial, agricultural, food, medical and health, transportation, scientific research, environmental protection, aerospace and other aspects. They have the mission of gatekeepers and mentors in the operation of various industries in the national economic construction. . In 2010, with the increase of energy conservation and emission reduction in our country, as well as the continued growth of investment in fixed assets of the secondary industry and the upgrading of related industries, analytical instruments exhibited good market potential. Especially in the environmental monitoring and industrial production process control play a greater role, more and more widely used, has great room for development.

In 2010, China's analytical instruments mainly include: laboratory analysis instruments, environmental monitoring instruments, and industrial process analysis instruments. The market sales amounted to more than 17 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of more than 20%. The market for laboratory analytical instruments is relatively mature and stable, with an increase of less than the average level of instrumentation. Environmental monitoring instruments and industrial process analysis instruments are subject to the impact of national policies and energy conservation and emission reduction policies. The growth rate is relatively large. The following describes the market development of these two aspects of analytical instruments.

(3) Operational status and future development trend of environmental monitoring instrument industry in 2010

According to incomplete statistics, in 2010, there were about 250 enterprises (including integrators) that produced on-line automatic monitoring systems for waste gas and wastewater. Among them, 130 companies produced waste gas on-line monitoring systems and 120 production waste water online monitoring systems. There are more than 20 companies that are wholly owned or joint ventures. These instrument manufacturers are dominated by private enterprises, with only a handful of state-owned enterprises. The registered locations of enterprises are mainly distributed in the economically developed and coastal regions. In recent years, the number of foreign-funded enterprises entering China is still increasing.

In 2010, China's environmental monitoring instruments and systems achieved an output value of approximately 11 billion yuan, an increase of 18.7% over 2009's 9.267 billion yuan. As a basic national policy of China, environmental protection, coupled with the energy conservation and environmental protection industry, is listed as one of the seven strategic emerging industries that the country is currently focusing on training and development. It is expected that during the “12th Five Year Plan” period, China’s environmental monitoring instruments and systems industry It will still maintain a growth rate of 15%-25%. In environmental protection monitoring instruments and systems, in addition to some portable and laboratory environmental monitoring instruments, the focus is to develop on-line automatic environmental monitoring equipment, mainly including the following major categories of products:

1 exhaust pollution source monitoring system

In 2010, China's exhaust pollution source monitoring system achieved an output value of 1.82 billion yuan, an increase of more than 20% over the same period last year. During the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, driven by factors such as desulphurization in the iron and steel industry, denitrification in the thermal power industry, monitoring of waste incineration exhaust gas, and upgrading of existing exhaust gas pollution source monitoring systems, the market of China's exhaust pollution source monitoring system will continue to maintain a continuous growth trend. The growth rate should be between 15-25%. It is estimated that the annual market capacity of the exhaust pollution monitoring system during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period should be more than 2.5 billion yuan.

2 Ambient Air Quality Monitoring System

According to the Ministry of Environmental Protection's "12th Five-Year Plan for National Environmental Air Quality Monitoring Network Point Adjustment Plan," by the end of 2009, among the 113 major environmental protection cities, the country has been approved and incorporated into the national environmental air quality monitoring network. There are 661 cities with prefecture level or above (not including 113 key environmental protection cities) with 691 existing ambient air monitoring points, 14 national atmospheric background monitoring network monitoring points, 31 national rural monitoring network monitoring points, and national acid There are 440 monitoring stations in the subsidence monitoring stations, 82 in environmental monitoring stations for sand and dust, and 31 in the urban greenhouse gas monitoring and monitoring network.

During the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, driven by new points in prefecture-level cities, newly-added points at county level, rural air monitoring, greenhouse gas monitoring, and upgrading of air quality monitoring systems, the “12th Five-Year Plan” period It is expected that there will be an additional 700 sets each year in the country, with an average of 600,000-700,000 yuan per air quality monitoring system. The air quality monitoring system will have an annual market capacity of more than 400 million yuan.

3 Wastewater Pollution Source Monitoring System

According to the “National List of Key Enterprises Monitored by the State in 2010” by the Ministry of Environmental Protection, there are 4,547 state-level monitoring companies for wastewater in China and 1,814 municipal sewage treatment plants. In 2010, the output value of the wastewater source monitoring system in China was 819 million yuan, an increase of more than 20% year-on-year.

During the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, China will continue to increase the monitoring of waste water pollution sources by environmental regulatory authorities, and will increase monitoring factors such as oil, heavy metals, and cyanide, which will further increase the demand for waste water pollution source monitoring systems. During the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, the annual demand for wastewater source monitoring systems in China will reach more than one billion yuan.

(4) Business Process and Future Development of Industrial Process Analytical Instruments Industry in 2010

During the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period, under the influence of factors such as structural adjustment, industrial upgrading, and energy-saving and emission reduction of China’s industrial enterprises, the market scale of China’s industrial process analysis instruments continues to expand, as follows:

2006-2010 China Industrial Process Analytical Instrument Market Scale

Unit: 100 million yuan

Project 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010

Market size (billion yuan) 19.222.026.830.135.3

As an important tool to improve the level of industrial technology, the market size of China's industrial process analysis instruments has continued to grow in recent years. However, compared with the industrialized countries, the application level of the industrial process analysis instrument industry in China is still low. With the rapid development of China's national economy and the secondary industry, especially the industrial upgrading of cement, metallurgy, petrochemical and other industries and the continued growth of fixed asset investment, will inevitably bring about the great development and broad market prospects of China's industrial process analysis instruments. During the "12th Five-Year Plan" period, industrial process analysis instruments will still maintain a growth rate of 15%. It is estimated that the total market size can reach more than 30 billion yuan in 2011-2015.

2. Major enterprises in the industry

The companies that mainly engage in environmental protection and process analysis instruments abroad include Siemens AG, ABB Switzerland, Thermo Fisher Scientific, US Hash Company, Yokogawa, Shimadzu Corporation, and Sikemaiake Company. The high-end process analytical instruments and environmental monitoring market.

The companies that mainly engage in environmental analysis instruments and process analysis instruments in China include Hangzhou Congguang Technology Corporation, Beijing Xuedilong Corporation, Beijing Tianrong Corporation, Hebei Xianhe Corporation, Peony Union Friendship Corporation, Aerospace Yilai Corporation, Lanzhou Shihua Corporation, and Beijing Kailong Company, Chongqing Chuan Branch Company, Beifen Maihaike Company, Nanjing Analytical Instrument Factory Co., Ltd., etc., mainly occupy the middle and low-end process analysis instruments and environmental monitoring market in China. However, some companies have also begun to increase their R&D efforts and improve their technical strength. The goal is to keep a close eye on the high-end analytical instrument market.

3, analysis instrument technology development trend

In the past 20 years, high-tech, such as microelectronics technology, computer technology, precision machinery technology, thin-film technology, network technology, nanotechnology, laser technology, and biotechnology have developed rapidly, resulting in fundamental changes in the field of analytical instrumentation. Move toward miniaturization, intelligence, automation and networking.

How to use the instrument well? Play its biggest role. The development of the application technology of analytical instruments has become an extremely important issue. Through the application of analytical instruments, the industry technology is improved, the efficiency is improved, the quality is guaranteed, and the cost is reduced. Therefore, it can be said that users are not just consumers, but more importantly they are profiters. For this reason, accelerating the development and promotion of application technology and maximizing the actual use of analytical instruments are important topics for analytical instrument manufacturers.

With the development of networks and communications, analytical instruments are moving toward networking, intelligence, and intelligence. The service of analytical instruments has become an important direction for future development. The manufacturers of future analytical instruments will not only provide the products themselves but the application services of the instruments. The user is only interested in the accurate and stable measurement and analysis data that he wants most, especially in the application of environmental monitoring and process analysis.

Due to the powerful network and communication functions, the provision of such services has also been made easy by the remote maintenance function. At the same time, with the downstream industry increasingly demanding the accuracy, performance, and stability of analytical instruments and systems and industrial process analysis systems, we use advanced technologies and processes to select appropriate analyzers, application software, circuits, and gases. Road, to promote the analysis of the instrument system to low power, multi-functional, integrated and systematic development will be the industry trend.

4. Major problems and suggestions in the industry

(1) The scale of the company is small, operation and management are not standardized, and the technical level and quality of products need to be improved.

Most companies in the domestic instrumentation industry have not been established for a long time, and they have common problems such as low technology level and weak development capability. Main performance: The problem of poor product reliability and stability is still outstanding. The industry technology foundation is weak. The ability to independently develop and innovate is poor. High-end products are almost occupied by foreign products, especially the core control systems and technologies in large-scale precision instruments and complete sets of projects. It basically depends on imports.

(2) The industrial structure needs reorganization

At present, the majority of domestic analytical instrument companies are mainly low-end analytical instruments, and relatively high-precision technologies and analytical instruments are relatively lacking.

(3) R & D investment is relatively low, and the product's technical level is poor.

Most of the existing analytical instrument companies are relatively small in size and relatively lack of funds, and it is difficult to invest large amounts of money in the research and development and basic research of high-precision technologies.

(4) Low rate of corporate capital withdrawal

The low rate of capital repatriation of enterprises and the high level of accounts receivable are an important factor contributing to the long-term and impact analysis of instrument manufacturers.

(5) The shortage of talent and the level of science and technology are not high starting point

Analytical instruments are high-tech products that integrate multiple technologies. Research, development, and manufacturing require composite professional and technical personnel. Due to the late development of China's instrumentation industry and the lack of adequate technology and experience accumulation, the technical foundation for product R&D is weak and inexperienced, and only mid- and low-end products can be developed and manufactured.

Suggestions for the development of the industry:

(1) Increase national investment in basic analytical technology research, especially increase investment in sophisticated technologies and catch up with advanced foreign technologies

(2) Integrate technical resources, develop high-end analytical instruments, occupy the high-end market, and go abroad at the same time.

(3) Get rid of the non-continent competition in the analytical instrument industry and improve the industry's barriers. Support analytical equipment companies with relatively strong technological capabilities.

(4) Revitalize national industrial brands, vigorously support the development of ethnic instrument companies, increase investment in R&D for these national brands, increase technical strength, and enhance their market competitiveness.

The analytical instrument industry is still a young industry in China, but it is also a sunrise industry and it is in a thriving stage. Accompanied by the ever-increasing demands of the country on the environment and the further adjustment of the industrial structure, it will inevitably maintain its growing momentum of good growth, and will also play an important role in the development of the national economy as its "multiplier."
