www.ferroalloynet.com: In April, there were two new start-up enterprises of ammonium metavanadate, with a small increase in production. Chemical grade V2O5 powder enterprises showed signs of increasing production, but the increment was small. The production of the large V2O5 flake plants is slightly reduced compared with that of last month due to the equipment maintain. The output of VN alloy has been affected to some extent due to the continuous production cost pressure of VN alloy manufacturers recently, some manufacturers keep the furnace heat preservation or production reduction. Ferrovanadium plants started steadily and increased production.
