Coal tar deep-processed products are important raw materials for pharmaceuticals, agricultural chemicals, dyes, and synthetic fibers, with strong profitability, leading to investment in coal tar deep-processing projects by a large number of companies in China in recent years. In 2014, China boasted coal tar deep-processing capacity of 24.10 million tons, concentrated mainly in North China and East China, which together occupied a proportion of more than 60%.

There are more coal tar deep-processing companies in China with fierce industrial competition. In order to promote sound development of the industry and gradually eliminate backward capacities, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in Mar 2014 issued Access Conditions of Coking Industry, providing that anhydrous coal tar processing capacity of single facility shall be no less than 150 kt/a. In 2014, the top3...
