A large-scale reconstruction of slag drying drum furnaces has been completed at the Magnitogorsk Power Plant
The introduction of mixing air heaters at the Cement and refractory plant will reduce energy consumption in the slag drying department of the production workshop by 10% and reduce the environmental impact on the environment.

Outdated brickwork structures have been replaced with modern heat generators. The new equipment operates on the principle of clean combustion: recirculating burners reduce the flame temperature, preventing the formation of nitrogen oxides. Thanks to the improved mixing of gas with air, the fuel burns completely, which minimizes carbon monoxide emissions.
An important advantage of modern units is the system of smooth power control (modulation). The operating mode of the new equipment can be changed depending on the specifics of the production process. The high efficiency of the installation will also ensure fuel savings and a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions.
We are not just modernizing production facilities, but purposefully implementing solutions that minimize the impact on the atmosphere, said Yuri Kochubeev, Director of the ICOZ.
"It is fundamentally important for us to ensure the plant's efficiency increases while strictly adhering to high environmental standards and taking care of the quality of life in Magnitogorsk."In parallel with the modernization of the production workshop equipment, Magnitogorsk Cement and Refractory Plant is implementing a major project to install an automated industrial emissions control system that will monitor air in real time. Project documentation is currently being developed and basic technological equipment is being supplied.
