At the end of May, I had a trip to visit the electrolytic zinc plant in Thai Nguyen, Song Cong industrial zone, guided by teachers and automation mentors. This is the largest zinc manufacturing plant in Southeast Asia. In recent years, the company has focused on researching and gradually applying mechanization to mining and metallurgy technology, with the aim of improving working conditions for laborers and creating competitive products.
The Thai Nguyen electrolytic zinc plant has a capacity of 10,000 tons of zinc ingots per year, which has now been adjusted to 15,000 tons of zinc ingots per year. During my visit, I observed the zinc production process, temperatures, and various machinery and equipment within the plant.
