The COVID-19 epidemic has brought benefits to the pyrrole industry, prompting its demand to grow
As early as the 1840s, pyrrole products have appeared. In 1860, pyrrole was synthesized for the first time. With the continuous deepening of research, the production technology of pyrrole has become increasingly mature, and some pyrrole production companies have emerged in the Netherlands, Germany, Japan, etc. my country’s pyrrole industry started late, and due to the small scale of domestic demand, my country’s pyrrole industry has not developed. The number of manufacturing companies in the industry is very small, and it mainly relies on imports from abroad. In 2020 and before, the proportion of my country’s pyrrole imports has remained above 95%.
After the outbreak of the epidemic in 2020, pyrrole has gained new development because it can be used to produce COVID-19 treatment drugs, and downstream demand has shown an accelerated development trend. According to the released “China Pyrrole Industry Market Monitoring and Future Development Prospects Research Report 2022-2026”, in 2021, China’s pyrrole industry The demand growth rate has reached 12%, and the demand is about 160 tons. Stimulated by the demand side, my country’s pyrrole production capacity has increased significantly, and the industry’s production capacity will reach 365 tons in 2021.
The pharmaceutical industry is the most important application field of pyrrole. The future development of the pharmaceutical industry will provide continuous driving force for the long-term development of the pyrrole industry. On the one hand, according to expert predictions, the COVID-19 virus will coexist with humans for a long time, and the COVID-19 treatment drug market will exist for a long time. Driven by this, pyrrole will continue to grow in the next few years. On the other hand, in addition to COVID-19 treatment drugs, pyrrole can be used in the pharmaceutical field to synthesize a variety of drugs such as atorvastatin and sunitinib. The pharmaceutical industry is an important industry related to residents’ health. my country’s support for the pharmaceutical industry will not weaken in the future. The long-term growth of the pharmaceutical industry will bring development opportunities to the azole industry. It is expected that in 2025, China’s pyrrole industry demand will reach more than 250 tons.
However, there are also some problems in the pyrrole industry, such as high product prices, which hinder its further promotion and application; there is great environmental pollution in the production process of pyrrole, and the more stringent my country’s environmental protection policy is, the normal production of the pyrrole industry will be greatly affected. Negative Effects.
Therefore, Industrial analysts said that investors should comprehensively consider the country’s industrial policies, the industrial plans and policies of different provinces and cities, and the different Factors such as the industrial advantages of provinces and cities, the scale and potential of demand for pyrrole in different provinces and cities, etc., are used to select appropriate investment areas. In addition, when investing in the pyrrole industry, we must pay attention to environmental protection issues and adopt various methods to ensure protection.
