Hoa Phat Dung Quat Steel Corporation

When it comes to the steel industry, it seems to be synonymous with the "heaviness" in operation and production involving thousands of workers and massive equipment. With the nature of steel refining and processing from ores, Hoa Phat Dung Quat Steel Corporation is concerned about balancing efficient production operations and environmental protection. This is an important issue that requires an optimal solution. Investing in technology and digital transformation is the direction chosen by this enterprise, and iLotusLand software is the selected solution to contribute to automatic environmental data monitoring.

Hoa Phat Dung Quat Steel Corporation

Hoa Phat Dung Quat Steel Corporation was established in February 2017 and is the investor in the construction and operation of the Hoa Phat Steel Production Complex in Dung Quat Economic Zone, Quang Ngai Province. This is a strategic project, ensuring the leading position as a steel manufacturer in the Southeast Asia region for Hoa Phat Group.

Hoa Phat Dung Quat Steel Corporation installs monitoring stations to monitor and protect the environment

With a production capacity of 4 million tons per year, the main products are construction steel, high-quality rolled steel, and hot-rolled coil steel. The factories have faced unexpected incidents related to noise, emissions, and dust since their operations began. The company has installed 14 automatic environmental monitoring systems within the factory and construction site area, including:

• 3 wastewater monitoring stations
• 12 air quality monitoring stations
• 1 raw water monitoring station

Current Status

The automatic wastewater monitoring system will continuously and automatically monitor parameters such as CO, SO2, NOx, Total dust, FlowOUT, FlowIN, Environmental discharge, DustOUT, TSS, pH, BOD, Temp, and Flow. The wastewater monitoring data is recorded and transmitted to the central station in accordance with current legal regulations. The data transmission system is located at the wastewater monitoring station, and the signal is input into the data transmission device, which is taken before being input into the monitoring system at the factory to ensure the original signal.
