[Original] Vietnam Cement Industry Development Plan 2020 (Translation)

2015-12-17 11:53:30

Vietnam's Ministry of Planning and Investment recently released a plan for the domestic cement industry by 2020. In the next five years, the goal of Vietnam's cement industry will change from fully meeting domestic demand in terms of quantity and quality to developing high-tech industrial equipment for export. It is estimated that by 2020, Vietnam's domestic demand for cement will reach about 68 million to 70 million tons.

I. Development goals

   The development goal of the cement industry has changed from fully meeting domestic demand in terms of quantity and quality to developing high-tech industrial equipment for export, while the industrial equipment can be competitive in the domestic and international markets.

II. Development advice

1. Investment

   Cement project investment must ensure social and economic benefits, cement products are competitive in Vietnam's regional and international economic integration, resources are rationally utilized, ecological environment and historical and cultural sites are protected, nature is integrated, and the needs of national defense security are met. Priority should be given to expansion investment projects, new construction projects in the central and southern regions, and projects to be started in the north. No new investment should be made in shaft kiln and independent grinding station projects. Independent grinding station is incomplete for domestic cement clinker producers.

2. Technical aspects

   The latest technology, high automation and appropriate equipment should be used to ensure high quality and stability of products, while products should be diversified and reasonably priced.

   Natural resources, minerals and electricity should be used economically in the production of cement.

   Under the conditions of product quality and environmental protection, a variety of raw materials and fuels, including garbage and industrial waste, are used in the production process of cement.

   Vertical kilns should be gradually replaced by rotary kilns, and eventually all of them will be replaced by 2020.

3. Capacity

   Focus on the development of large factories.

   Projects in mountainous and remote areas should choose the right capacity.

   If the shaft kiln is required to be transformed into a rotary kiln, the medium and small capacity can be used, but it must not be less than 1000t/d.

4. Location of cement plant

   The location of cement plants must require access to raw materials and convenient transportation. According to the regional and local market demand and the supply and demand situation of the national market, cement plants should be mainly concentrated in the following eight regions. These areas have potential for cement and clinker production.

   Large-scale cement clinker plants should be built in areas with abundant natural resources and convenient water transportation, so as to facilitate the transportation of clinker to the south.

   In the northwest and northeast mountainous areas, the construction of large-scale cement plants should be combined with the economic development needs of the region and adjacent areas.

III. Indicators

1. About proved reserves

   For projects with a capacity of more than 3000t/d: the minimum reserve must be able to produce continuously for 30 years.

   For projects with a production capacity of less than 3000t/d, the minimum reserve must be able to produce continuously for 20 ~ 25 years.

2. Technical specifications for cement production

   Investment projects for the development of the cement industry must adopt advanced technical specifications in terms of fuel, raw materials, dust content of exhaust gas, noise intensity, automation level, labor productivity and localization.

The following table lists some of the necessary specialized technical specifications.

3. Cement plants that transform vertical kilns into rotary kilns must meet the following conditions:

   The full repayment of the investment loan and the desire to refurbish and transfer technology.

   Qualified limestone and clay can be obtained, and the reserves are enough for the continuous operation of the plant for more than 20 years.

   Seek a market for the product.

   Financially healthy.

   Senior director and production manager.

   Vertical kiln cement plants that do not meet the above conditions must formulate production adjustment or liquidation plans before 2020.

4.Requirements for grinding station

   To be integrated into a cement manufacturing facility capable of supplying clinker to meet domestic demand.

   Meet the requirements in accordance with the regulations on environmental hygiene.

5. Cement plant production: demand and planning

   The following table shows the cement demand forecast for the whole country and the eight economic regions.

IV. Sources of investment funds

   Mobilize domestic and foreign capital to invest in cement industry, including credit line, project creditor's rights, self-owned capital, equity capital, paid-in capital, etc. Encourage enterprises in the economic sector to invest in cement production, including introducing foreign capital for joint venture or holding.

   The state will support cement investment projects in mountainous, remote and poverty-stricken areas through existing policies and mechanisms.

V. Interdepartmental coordination

   It is necessary to coordinate relevant industries and departments, such as engineering machinery, communications, natural resources and environment, science and technology, education and training, infrastructure construction, etc., in order to better serve the development of the cement industry and facilitate the development of other industries.

   The development of the cement industry must be combined with the government's major machinery projects.

   Give full play to the research capabilities of mechanical engineering, metallurgy, information, automation and other industries to design and manufacture technology, equipment and accessories for the cement industry, so as to rapidly increase the proportion of domestic equipment.

   The state will provide procurement support for the design and manufacture of equipment and the technology needed for the cement industry to gradually replace exports with domestic equipment.

   Collect resources through advanced technical means to quickly master the skills of design, manufacture, installation and operation of 2500t/d cement production line.

   As a large cement project, the weight and value of the equipment using domestic products must account for 60% and 25% ~ 30% respectively.

   Enterprises with technical ability and good financial status are encouraged to act as general contractors for cement projects.
