On June 2, the one-time thermal load test run of the 265 m² continuous strand sinter machine construction project of Xiangfen County Xinjinshan Special Steel Co., Ltd. which was generally contracted by CIE was successful and put into production smoothly. This is the first general contracting project of sinter machine construction undertaken by CIE in southern Shanxi.

The advanced process and energy saving & emission reduction technology are used in the project. The main technical and economic, energy consumption and emission indicators have reached the advanced level of the similar sintering plants in China. It is estimated that the annual output of high-quality sinter will be 3 million tons after the project is fully put into production, which realizes the expected goal of replacing inefficient production capacity with green and efficient production capacity, and at the same time helps CIE further explore the southern Shanxi market.
