In November 2020, the third furnace of YDD's ferrosilicon ore-smelting electric furnace project in Karaganda, Kazakhstan went into formal operation, which marked the completion of the project and the start of full production.
Financed by the Development Bank of Kazakhstan JSC and constructed by Chinese company Jinzhou Tiansheng Heavy Industry Co., Ltd., the project includes three 63 MVA furnaces and an associate plant, with a designed annual production capacity of 180,000t of high-quality ferrosilicon during phase one and 240,000t during phase two. Construction of the project commenced in May 2018, with the first two furnaces coming on stream in late 2019, and the third furnace fired up in September 2020 has now started commercial production.
