On Jan. 6, 2013, the State Council of the
People’s Republic of China issued the 12th Five-Year Plan for Biological Industry
Development (the 12th Five-Year Plan), covering the biological industry’s seven
sub-sectors—biological medicine, biological medical engineering, biological
agriculture, biological manufacturing, biological energy, biological
environmental protection and biological service sectors, according to Biomaterials
China News 1301 issued on 8 January by CCM.
Specifically, the plan for the biological
manufacturing sector is shown below.
Target:
1. To achieve the production of a batch of
important biological products from non-grain feedstock;
2. To achieve a capacity of biological
materials of 1 million t/a by 2015;
3. To achieve a capacity of biological
products of 10 million t/a by 2015.
Content:
1. Industrial demonstration of non-grain
industrial sugar: promoting the R&D and application of high quality,
large-scale preparation technologies including the processing technology of
biomass such as tuber crops, straw and corn, and enzymatic saccharification,
constructing non-grain industrial sugar industrial demonstration lines, and
forming the large-scale supply of non-grain fermentable sugar.
2. Industrial demonstration of biological
chemicals: promoting the industrial application of microbe-engineered bacteria
and thermochemical technologies, constructing large-scale production lines of
biological chemicals such as alcohol, organic acid, biological olefin and its
derivatives, and improving the competitiveness of biological chemicals compared
to petroleum products.
3. Industrial demonstration of biological
materials: promoting the development and application of biological materials’
biological and chemical polymerization technologies, constructing demonstration
production lines of biological plastics and fibers, such as polylactic acid
(PLA), poly butylene succinate (PBS) and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), and
promoting the application of biological materials.
Policy:
1. Establishing an authentication mechanism
for biological products;
2. Introducing an incentive policy for the
consumption of biological products;
3. Researching a system for rationing
agricultural raw materials for the industrial sector.
Compared to the 11th Five-Year Plan for
Biological Industry Development (2006–2010), the 12th Five-Year Plan reveals
that the Chinese government attaches importance to the development of the whole
industry, not just the technology, and it pays more attention to raw materials
and consumption. The 11th Five-Year Plan for Biological Industry Development
only included encouraging biological products and stated the government’s
support for their large-scale production.
In the 12th Five-Year Plan, China China
Meanwhile, the Chinese government is also
focusing on the consumption of biological products and is attempting to
encourage domestic consumers to use them. Although China
Once an authentication mechanism has been
established to judge whether a product is biodegradable and test its degree of
degradation, producers will be able to set a reasonable price for different
degrees of degradation, and it will also be easier for consumers to purchase
real biological products. This mechanism will help consumers build confidence
in this industry and protect the profit margin of those high degradation
products.
The 12th Five-Year Plan reveals that the
Chinese government is working on related policies that can help the biological
industry become mature and maintain sustainable development.
PBS has been added to the list of
encouraged biological materials in the 12th Five-Year Plan due to its
biodegradable properties and comprehensive performance. Currently, there are
five producers producing these products and there are another two new
production lines under construction.
It is also worth noting that it is the
first time that the Chinese government has listed biological service as an
independent industry. The government plans to construct national biological
resources and an information technology network service system and form an
information service capability for the biological industry.
