The
Chinese government has released a supplementary list of targets in a 1.15
million/tonne capacity closure drive, focusing on old pulp and paper capacity.
This raises the country's closure goal for this year to more than 9.95 million
tonnes/yr.
The
document is a follow-up to the first list, which detailed the shutdown of 8.80
million tonnes/yr of old pulp and paper capacity. It was released by the
Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in July.
