Located in Southeast Sulawesi Province, Indonesia, the CNI project is the country’s first industrial project invested by a local Indonesian owner and contracted to China ENFI on an EPC basis. The project employs advanced RKEF process and is equipped with China ENFI’s patented 72MVA rectangular electric furnace (the largest of its type in Indonesia) and hot calcine transfer system, to produce ferronickel with a 22% Ni grade. Each production line is designed to produce approximately 125,000t/a of nickel equivalent ferronickel products, positioning the project as a ?new benchmark in Indonesia’s ferronickel smelting industry? upon commissioning.
With the ?successful energization of the electric furnace on April 6, ?the slag tapping on April 18, and the ferronickel production on April 27, the project has set a record in the industry for ?large-scale rectangular ferronickel electric furnaces by completing the entire process from furnace energization to ferronickel output in just 21 days?.
