Description:

Owing to the technical support of research institutes and the guide from the central government, the amino acid growing at a fast speed, though now the most popular method in China, the fermentation method, is not that developed as the western countries.

It can be said that China is a newcomer of amino acid in the world market. Most of the strains for the fermentation are ascended from overseas. The technology for the chemical synthesis cannot compare with that of foreign companies. But being a large and important developing country with vast number of population and animals, China is no doubt attractive to overseas manufacturers. There are still some areas worth considering from commercial point of view.

In feed industry, Chiatai Macro of Thailand and Ajinomoto of Japan have both set up their joint ventures in China to produce feed grade lysine. Roune-Planc has set up joint venture in Tianjin to produce feed grade methionine.

In pharmaceutical area, Ajimonoto has already established joint venture with Shanghai Tianchu. They have a strong ambition to be the No.1 in the production of pharmaceutical amino acids in China.

One good way is to develop the downstream products by using the amino acid in China, especially to produce the dextro type (D-) amino acids, which are promising in the application of synthesizing the highly profitable pharmaceuticals.

Executive Summary

(Note: The following summary is based on the situation in 2001and maybe different to what it is nowadays. Please be noted.)

In China the feed grade amino acids usually refer to lysine and methionine.

In the past years, import lysine, almost all of which are feed grade lysine, dominated the Chinese market. In 1999 the actual production from Chinese manufacturers is xxxxKT but the import lysine is near xxxxKT. The import lysine is from the following companies:

- Cheil of Indonesia ( xxxx% in 1999)

- Sewon & Miwon of South Korea xxxx% in 1999)

- ADM of USA and AJI of Thailand

- Kyowa Hokko Vietnam

It is estimated that the demand for feed grade lysine in China is at least xxxxKT per year.

The demand for feed grade methionine is estimated to be around xxxx toxxxx tonnes per year in China and the supply is dominated by imported materials.

The popular brands of imported methionine are from Degussa, Sumitomo and Rhone Poulenc.

China import statistics show that about xxxx tonnes of methionine were imported to China in 1999. In addition, there is also a large quantity of methionine being brought into China without proper customs declaration.

The application of threonine, tryptophan and arginine is quite limited due to the high price.
