In 2009 Chinas crude steel output 567.8424 million tons, up 13.5%. 692.4372 million tons of steel production (including cold rolling and processing of wood), an increase of 15.9% over the previous year. Pig iron output of 543.7482 million tons, up 15.9%. ? Chinas share of the worlds total crude steel production of 37.72 percent from 2008 to 2009, a substantial increase of 46.55%. A countrys steel output in China is almost at the back of the output of the 23 countries combined. ? In 2009 driven by domestic large-scale investment, as well as by the world economic crisis, the role of decline in exports, domestic crude steel apparent consumption (domestic market, the apparent consumption = production - net exports) 564.99 million tons, up by increased 112.33 million tons, an increase of 24.8%. Increase of more than 100 million tons a year of apparent demand, which is in Chinese history has never been found.

Focus on medium-sized enterprises in 2009 steel, iron, timber production growth rates were 11.3%, 15.3% and 13.7%, while other SMEs, growth rates were 24.7%, 18.5% and 27.3% respectively. 2009年我国不同类型企业产量增长率,% 15.9 13.5 18.5 15.3 11.3 13.7 18.5 24.7 27.3 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 生铁 粗钢 钢材 全国 重点 中小 冶金工业经济发展研究中心 4 Increase in the proportion of long
