Danieli Corus Tapped for Two Blast Furnaces for Hoa Phat
01/05/2022 - The two blast furnaces will add 5.6 million metric tons per year of capacity to the Vietnamese steelmaker’s Dung Quat steel complex II, according to Danieli.
The Dung Quat steel complex I facility currently has a production capacity of 5 million metric tons per year.
According to Danieli, the two 2,500 m3 working-volume blast furnaces will each have a nominal annual hot metal production rate of 2.5–2.8 million tons.
Danieli’s scope of supply includes the level 2 process automation systems, pulverized coal injection systems and part of the hot blast systems.
The order follows a 2017 order for four 1,080 m3 working-volume blast furnaces.
The Hoa Phat Group recently celebrated its first 3 million tons of cumulative hot-rolled coil production at the Dung Quat steel complex.
