VAS Tue Minh Steel Binh Duong plant — Vietnam
Steel Plant in Vietnam. Approximate location 11.11332, 106.83344.
Steel PlantVietnamCO₂ not individually reported
VAS Tue Minh Steel Binh Duong plant is a steel plant in Vietnam. Steel plants burn coal in blast furnaces or use electric arcs to melt scrap; in both cases the molten metal must be kept above 1,500°C and transferred through extensive hot piping and vessels. It is operated by VAS Steel Tue Minh JSC. No facility-measured CO₂ figure is available in the open dataset used here.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-1567177.

In context: how this facility compares
Subsector: iron-and-steel. As steel plant, it requires high process heat (typically 800–1500°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Steel plants burn coal in blast furnaces or use electric arcs to melt scrap; in both cases the molten metal must be kept above 1,500°C and transferred through extensive hot piping and vessels.

Carbon emissions
No facility-measured CO₂ is published for VAS Tue Minh Steel Binh Duong plant; Climate TRACE provides only a steel plant sector-level estimate, so a precise per-site figure, ranking or carbon cost would be misleading and is not shown. No domestic carbon price — but cement, steel, aluminium, fertilizer and hydrogen exported to the EU face CBAM at €75/t (rising to 100% by 2034).
CO₂: Climate TRACE sector-level estimate (not facility-measured).
Operator
Operated by VAS Steel Tue Minh JSC.
Local climate
VAS Tue Minh Steel Binh Duong plant sits in a tropical savanna climate zone (Köppen Aw), at 11.1°N in the northern hemisphere.
Köppen zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).
Site climate & environmental severity
This site sits in a corrosive environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C4 — High), with humidity / wetness the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1238 W/m² to ambient — roughly 0.95× the loss at a 20 °C reference. Reference-surface calculation at a 150 °C surface from WorldClim climate normals (ASTM C680 / ISO 12241) — an indicative per-climate comparison, not a measurement of this site’s specific equipment. Open method dataset: DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20787408 (CC BY 4.0).
Indicative estimate via the ISO 9223:2012 informative method (atmospheric corrosivity from temperature, time-of-wetness and airborne salinity), using WorldClim climate normals, the Köppen-Geiger class and coast distance. Indicative, not a measured corrosion rate.
