Global VCM production in 2000 was 21.1 million tons. It grew at a CAGR of 3.7% from 2000 to 2009. Global VCM production in 2009 was 29.3 million tons.Global VCM production is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.7% from 2009 to 2020.
Global VCM capacity in 2009 was 40.0million tons. Asia-Pacific had the largest capacity of 18.1 million tons and a share of 45.1%. Europe had a capacity of 10.4 million tons and a share of 25.8% followed by North America with a capacity of 8.0 million tons and a share of 20.0%. The Middle East had the capacity of 2.0 million tons and a share of 5.2% followed by South and Central America with a capacity of 1.6 million tons and a share of 3.9%.

Global VCM capacity in 2009 was 40.0 million tons. 50.8% of the global capacity was based on Naphtha for feedstock while 27.2% of global capacity was based on Natural gas for feedstock. 17.2% of the capacity was based on Coal and 4.7% capacity was based on other feedstocks.
China still produces the majority of its VCM through the acetylene route which is considered to be highly polluting and energy consuming. But the presence of large low cost coal fields gives it an advantage. Otherwise it has to depend on ethylene derived from crude oil. The future of acetylene based plants will depend upon global crude oil prices because if they remain low china will import VCM derived from EDC. Otherwise it may resume building more acetylene based VCM plants.
