Tanzania-based steel manufacturer Lodhia Industries has signed a contract with Danieli Centro Combustion India for the supply of a new 50 mt/hour pusher-type reheating furnace for its new bar and wire rod rolling mill complex in Tanzania. Commissioning of the new reheating furnace is planned for the first half of 2027.
According to Danieli Centro Combustion India, the new reheating furnace will be designed with the most modern technology and will comply with the latest safety standards. It will be equipped with new-generation burners and an efficient combustion system to ensure optimal heating practices, higher thermal efficiency, reduced scale formation and lower pollutant emissions.
The company stated that the design reflects Lodhia Industries’ commitment to energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact, in line with its decarbonization strategy.
The furnace will serve the bar and wire rod mill previously ordered by Lodhia Industries from Danieli, completing the technological package for the new long product rolling complex in Tanzania.
