Start-up and operation of the new sinter plants and blast furnaces at Dragon Steel

摘要

In July 2006, the groundbreaking ceremony took place that marked the start of a major campaign by Taiwanese steel producer Dragon Steel Corporation to enter into the flat-steel market sector. Since then, a completely new integrated steelworks was built in two stages in the harbour area of Taichung. For this huge undertaking, Siemens VAI supplied two sinter plants, two large-sized blast furnaces and three 2-strand slab casters.
