2020-th year on the Dnieper metallurgical plant in Kamensk began work at full capacity blast furnaces DP-1M and DP-9. Seduta after the forced technological downtime of blast furnace No. 12 also have successfully logged in.
DP-12 brought to the reserve in September of last year. In the idle time period it was completed: revision of mechanical and electrical equipment Assembly, repair duct, repair the lining, replacement of cable and wire products and engines.
the First fusion products (iron and slag) were obtained before the new year.

From January 4 blast furnace operates with separation of iron and slag. Stable thermal state of the furnace, the major indicators of normal.

"We are entering the final stage of the process rozmowki DP-12 and by mid-January we plan to achieve its daily capacity of 2,200 tons. The blowing is carried out according to the schedule, blast furnace No. 12 was working satisfactorily," said Palguta.
