📋 Tender Overview
In the context of world mining technology rapidly shifting to a smart mine model, Vietnam faces an urgent need to modernize mining and processing activities. Associate Professor, Dr. Phung Manh Dac, General Secretary of Vietnam Association of Mining Science and Technology: World mining technology is changing very quickly, moving towards digital mine models, smart mines, and high-level automation integration. At the seminar Innovation and modernization of technology in the mining industry organized by Industry and Trade Magazine on the morning of November 14, experts and representatives of management agencies emphasized strategic solutions for the mining industry to advance. entering a stage of green, safer and more efficient development. The mining industry needs to enter a period of strong modernization. Assessing the current situation, Associate Professor, Dr. Phung Manh Dac, General Secretary of the Vietnam Association of Mining Science and Technology, said that world mining technology is changing very quickly, moving towards digital mine models, smart mines, and high level of automation integration. Meanwhile, Vietnam is in a transitional phase with a number of open pit mines at the same level as previous countries, but underground mining is still limited in terms of mechanization. He said that in the past 10 years, Vietnam Coal and Mineral Industries Group (TKV) has made strong progress thanks to two major projects on automation, mechanization, computerization and digital transformation. Digital transformation in mine management has also made clear progress, such as digital transformation. Operationalization of controlling people entering the furnace, assigning shifts, communicating or managing resources. These results show that the industry can go further if it continues to promote technological innovation in the next 5-10 years. Dr. Dao Duy Anh, Deputy Director of the Department of Innovation, Green Transformation and Industrial Promotion (Ministry of Industry and Trade): Technological innovation is an important condition to help the industry increase labor productivity, reduce raw material and fuel consumption, improve competitiveness and contribute to the net zero emission target. From a state management perspective, Dr. Dao Duy Anh, Deputy Director of the Department of Innovation, Green Transformation and Industrial Promotion (Ministry of Industry and Trade), emphasized that this is a thorough policy of the Government. He said that technological innovation is an important condition to help the industry increase labor productivity, reduce raw material and fuel consumption, improve competitiveness and contribute to the net zero emission target. Three major solution groups will be prioritized by the Ministry of Industry and Trade in the coming period: Upgrading technology and equipment; completing policies in a flexible direction, suitable for business types; and promoting research and international cooperation to quickly receive advanced technology, Mr. Dao Duy Anh stated. clearly. Many new research directions open up opportunities for green development in mining. Representative of the Institute of Biological Materials and Environment, Associate Professor, PhD. Senior Lieutenant Colonel La Duc Duong said that the Institute is focusing on researching three key groups: Minerals and green materials; Clean energy and chemicals enhance oil and gas recovery. Notably, research on utilizing waste slag to create pure TiO2 material, along with adsorbent materials for heavy metal treatment, have all been patented. The Institute also develops spherical graphite materials for Li-ion batteries, establishing a pilot line for products serving the energy storage field. Associate Professor, PhD. Lieutenant Colonel La Duc Duong: Enterprises implementing new technology are facing three groups of difficulties: Complex mine conditions; large investment costs for pilots and industrial lines and risks in operating environment. With oil and gas, the Institute has built a group of hydrophilic-hydrophobic polymer products to increase oil recovery. Actual testing in Cuu Long and Nam Con Son shows effective improvement of 5-12% in oil recovery and reduction of water extraction by 10-20%. However, according to Mr. La Duc Duong, enterprises implementing new technology are facing three groups of difficulties: Complex mine conditions miscellaneous; large investment costs for pilots and industrial lines and risks in the operating environment. Support mechanisms need to be clearer and more encouraging, from testing funding funds, tax incentives for new equipment to intellectual property protection regulations, Mr. La Duc Duong proposed. Proposing solutions, Associate Professor Dr. Phung Manh Dac said that the industry needs to accelerate digital transformation and automation; Apply electric battery and fuel cell transportation instead of diesel; Expand the mechanization of underground mining and use slope conveyors for mines down to -300 m deep. These solutions not only reduce resource loss but also greatly improve safety conditions and mining efficiency.Dr. Dao Duy Anh emphasized that it is necessary to continue to improve science and technology infrastructure, promote cooperation between research institutes and businesses, and build a synchronous mechanism to encourage innovation. If done well, Vietnams mining industry can completely enter a stage of greener, smarter and more sustainable development in the coming years, Mr. Dao Duy Anh affirmed.
