The chemical industry sector is making continued successes in production while strictly abiding by the requirements of the top emergency anti-epidemic system.

The Hungnam Fertilizer Complex solved scientific and technical problems arising in the work for improving the capacity of compressors as part of a brisk technical innovation drive for enhancing the efficiency of the newly expanded fertilizer production line and achieved notable results in the current top emergency anti-epidemic situation.

The Namhung Youth Chemical Complex made substantial achievements in several capacity expansion projects by readjusting and reinforcing production processes qualitatively in accordance with scientific and technical requirements.

While striving to hit its fertilizer production target, the complex scrupulously organized the management of equipment and technology and strictly complied with the requirements of the standard regulations of operation to push ahead with the production of such basic chemical products as ammonia and polypropylene as planned.

Meanwhile, the workers and technicians of the February 8 Vinalon Complex are channelling efforts into strengthening its material and technical foundations and producing good results in the production of chemical products including vinalon, caustic soda and vinyl chloride.
