He said with the two furnaces, the institute could produce non-ferrous materials including aluminum and stainless steel.
He also challenged the institute to continue its research on the production of lithium batteries with a view to commercialising the findings.
On the pencil production project of the institute, Onu said he was satisfied that production had finally started on the project.
“We have all seen pencils produced by PRODA and this effort is quite commendable,” he said. He also encouraged them to do more and not relent, as Nigeria will gradually attain tecnological Independence.
