It is expected that the supply and demand of the domestic soda ash market will be largely balanced throughout the year. As the supply of raw materials, energy, transportation and Other supplies are in short supply and prices are rising, the production cost of soda ash manufacturers will increase. In the dual role of cost-driven and market-driven, the annual average price of soda ash may be higher than in 2007.
