A major TV station in China has conducted a major international report on Baosteel Zhanjiang’s role in China’s 40-year reform and opening up outcomes.

The report, by China Central Television 2, follows on from the station’s widely-followed recent report on CISDI’s role at Formosa Ha Tinh Steel in Vietnam for the series Chinese Brands in Overseas Markets.

Mr Zou Zhongping, of CISDI, who headed up the blast furnaces’ technological process at Zhanjiang and was on the scene at both the Shanghai and the Zhanjiang plants, featured in the latest report. He commented: “in the many years spent on building Baosteel Shanghai and Zhanjiang plants, CISDI has been committed to applying innovative and green technologies and equipment.

“Our high-efficiency, low consumption mega blast furnaces, smart stockyard and rotary hearth furnace technology and our ZLD water treatment system have been successfully implemented. They are active players in transforming China’s steel industry from relying mainly on import to export, and in upgrading its model, quality and speed of development”.

In China’s steel progression, CISDI is a metallurgical front-runner, responding competitively to the tests of transforming the steel industry into an intelligent and more environment-friendly sector of the national economy.
