Recently, from the Iranian province of Yazd came good news, by our company to build Iran Noven graphite electrode Company two 93-meter graphite electrode two baking tunnel kiln and supporting equipment installation project progress smoothly, is expected to have cold commissioning conditions in 2 months. This is an overseas project undertaken by our company and Huanggang Zhonghui Kiln Company. Our company adheres to the concept of "science and technology enterprise, talent enterprise" and actively develops markets at home and abroad.
    The ultra-high power electrode secondary roasting tunnel kiln is led by Chen Xiaoxin, the general manager of our company, Ma Jinlin, the chief engineer, and the technical team is organized. The design concept is to digest, absorb and optimize the similar furnace type technology in Germany, improve it, and achieve more advanced technology. This type of tunnel is mainly used for the secondary roasting of intermediate products after immersion, and its advantages are large output, accurate temperature control, and low energy consumption. The main heat source comes from the product's own volatile combustion cycle heating, a small amount of external combustion auxiliary. In July 2023, after comprehensive comparison of multiple factors such as technology, process and cost performance, our company stood out in the fierce competition and successfully undertook the manufacturing and installation project of Iran's second roasting kiln.
    In view of the actual situation of the project, in order to ensure the progress and quality of the project and control the cost to the greatest extent, the company decided to carry out the project in the way of "domestic preliminary processing, overall packaging, and foreign installation". On the one hand, the main material processing of the two baking tunnel kiln was started in China, the steel was processed into semi-finished products according to the drawings, and the other materials required for the project, including resistant materials, electronic control systems, operating equipment and parts were packaged together, and the customs clearance was divided into four batches, after four months of shipping, and all arrived at the project site in May this year. On the one hand, Zhang Liangping and Zhang Qiang were sent to Iran Noven Graphite Electrode Company to prepare for the project.
     In order to strengthen the organization and leadership of the project, Chen Xiaoxin, the company's general manager, and Ma Jinlin, the chief engineer, have repeatedly arrived at the site in Yazd Province, Iran, to inspect and arrange engineering related matters. At the end of the month, project manager CAI Guocui led the construction personnel to the project site, and the construction personnel had no time to appreciate the exotic customs and put into the intense work. All colleagues work together to overcome the practical difficulties such as language barrier, diet differences, climate discomfort, especially in the face of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict triggered by the serious situation of domestic turmoil in Iran, the company launched an emergency plan in time to ensure the stability of the construction team and the safety of life and property, through the unity and cooperation at home and abroad, the front line behind, all comrades, at present, The project has entered its final phase. Whether it is the construction progress, the quality of the project, or the spirit of our employees have been highly praised by Iranian companies.
