Background

According to the production capacity replacement plan, it is planned to build a 1×1300m3 blast furnace, a 1×100t basic oxygen furnace and supporting facilities in the existing plant area, and dismantle the existing equipment.[1]

The 1300m³ blast furnace and 100t basic oxygen furnace are the two most critical and fundamental projects in the "Capacity Reduction, Replacement, Upgrade, and Renovation" series of projects by Huaxin Yuan Group. These projects have the largest investment, totaling nearly 2 billion yuan. The construction period for the project is 18 months. Construction began in March 2023, and put into operation in July 2024.[2] The production efficiency will increase by 50%, with an annual increase in output value of 3 billion yuan and an additional tax revenue of 250 million yuan.[3]
