Zaporizhstal intends to sign a Memorandum with the Zaporizhzhya Regional State Administration on reducing the environmental load on the environment

On October 1, 2020, Vitaly Bogovin, Chairman of the Zaporizhzhya Regional State Administration, paid a working visit to Zaporizhstal. The general director of the plant, Alexander Mironenko, briefed the head of the region in detail with the projects for the ecological modernization of the plant, investments in which amounted to 15 billion hryvnias of the company's own funds.

During the visit, the chairman of the Zaporizhzhya Regional State Administration Vitaliy Bogovin visited the central dispatching office of the enterprise, the sinter plant and the construction site for additional aspiration of the tail parts of sinter machines.

“Since 2012, we have modernized the gas cleaning systems of all sintering machines and achieved a 70% reduction in dust emissions from the sinter plant. Taking into account the best world practices at Zaporizhstal, the air is cleaned from dust - up to 30 mg /m3, each sinter machine is equipped with emission control sensors, which online show the efficiency of the gas cleaning equipment, "- informed the head of the region Alexander Mironenko.

Following the results of the working visit, the chairman of the ZOGA Vitaly Bogovin noted:

“The public requires the authorities to respond and take real measures to help solve environmental problems. We cannot ignore these demands. The Zaporizhzhya industrial site is not just Zaporizhstal, but many other enterprises. But you are one of the largest enterprises in the region and at the same time have the largest environmental modernization program. We expect from Zaporizhstal a plan of specific measures to reduce the load on the atmospheric air - clear, consistent steps with clear and realistic deadlines for implementation. We will include them in the memorandum between the authorities and the Zaporozhye enterprises and we will monitor their implementation. ”

As a result, an agreement was reached to sign a Memorandum of the Zaporizhzhya Regional State Administration with PJSC Zaporizhstal, under which the plant will undertake additional obligations to reduce its production emissions into the atmosphere.

Since 2012, Zaporizhstal has allocated more than UAH 15 billion for the environmental modernization of the enterprise. In addition to equipping the sinter plant with new aspiration units, blast furnaces No. 2, 3, 4 were reconstructed. A modern hydrochloric acid pickling line was built, which made it possible to completely stop the discharge of sulfuric acid vapors from cold rolling shop No. 1 into the Dnieper and sulfuric acid vapors into the atmosphere.
