This cluster of warehouses is built next to Cai Cui port, the central port of the Mekong Delta, convenient for exporting goods. Phase 1 builds a warehouse complex and a multi-purpose industrial irradiation line with a capacity of 50,000 tonnes a year, on an area of nearly 2 hectares.
Irradiation technology that will be introduced, includes the use of Cobalt-60 sources and accelerators, which are two popular technologies throughout the world.
Multi-function industrial irradiation lines using Cobalt-60 source are designed and manufactured by the Centre for Radiation Research and Development under the Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute, according to the standards of industrial irradiators with safety features in accordance with the regulations on industrial irradiators of the International Atomic Energy Agency - IAEA and of Vietnam.
According to the plan, this cluster of warehouses and irradiation lines that come into operation in 2023 is expected to bring more favourable access opportunities and reduce transportation and logistics costs for businesses in the Mekong Delta, as well as promote the export of goods through the Can Tho port cluster.
