Mednogorsk (Orenburg region)
the second phase of construction of oxygen mednogorsky copper-sulphur plant (metallurgical complex of UMMC) has started after the enterprise has purchased the basic equipment, made in Japan. At the moment, works on installation of booster compressors and electric motors to them. In parallel, the manufacturing of technological pipeline of blowers and components in the processing pipeline of the vacuum pump.
- the package has been shipped from the port of Kobe (Japan) is 10 February 2020. Four days later, the imported equipment arrived in the port of Vladivostok. Further rail transport to Orenburg, where we were expecting it. Delivery of equipment to the plant was carried out in 40 foot containers. It involved two tractor trailers and one trawl for transportation of containers weighing about 30 tons. Only twenty-three containers, of which fifteen with the equipment. This vacuum pumps, high pressure oxygen compressor, blowers, filters, valves and various components, and spare parts. Eight containers of adsorbent, Packed in sealed drums and bags, - says the Manager of the project "Pnevmomash" Konstantin Pavlenko.
the Installation of the local equipment of the Russian production began in the summer of 2019, this attracted 29 domestic enterprises. Manufacturers of storage equipment, absorbers, mufflers, balance tanks, control and measuring apparatus and instruments, automation systems and cable products, pipelines and valves.
Note that pyrometallurgical processing of sulphide copper-containing raw materials is carried out in oxidizing conditions, it requires oxygen. Therefore, the construction of an oxygen plant will increase the production capacity of MMSC technology oxygen on the further development of chemical-metallurgical complex, production efficiency and competitiveness of the enterprise.
the Design capacity of the 2nd stage of the oxygen station - 5366 Nm3/h. The cost of works and equipment - 872 million rubles. Completion and submission of the second stage of the oxygen station is scheduled for the 4th quarter of 2020.
