MMSC is built on a new "slate"
Mednogorsk (Orenburg region)
At the Mednogorsk copper-sulfur plant (metallurgical complex of UMMC) in record time completed the construction of the garage to defrost the frozen goods. The construction of the "premises" as simply call a new industrial facility metallurgists, was scheduled to be completed by mid-2020. The completion of the works by the end of 2019 will allow this winter season, the bulk copper raw material, take the rail.
the fact that due to the natural moisture of copper concentrate (the main enterprise of the processed raw materials) corsets in large chunks, sticks to the sides of railroad freight cars, etc. Early to ensure the needs of MMSCs in raw in winter, used vehicles, the cost of which is substantial higher than in the train.
the payback of the project at a cost of 148 million rubles is 1.8 years.
– implementation of the project will allow not only to refuse the services of the Hauler in favor of rail transport, but also to involve in the production of additional types of purchased raw materials supplied through the networks of the Russian Railways, – says the validity of the project, the General Director of the MMSC Andrey Ibragimov.
In the construction of a new facility were involved nine contractors, including the structural units of the plant.
– Directly part of the railway Department in the construction of the premises began in February of this year with the development of pits for foundations of the garage and fire tanks, emergency tanks and gas platforms. Our experts paved 300 meters of railway tracks, installed two switch put 455 pieces of sleepers and about 30 tons of railway rails. There were 15 pieces of railway and motor vehicles, – says the head of the railway shop Denis Karasev.
overall dimensions are 117 x 21 meters, a height of 7.7 meters. Capacity – 16 cars: two independent sections with 8 cars each. As fuel for thawing natural gas is used, which is fed to six heaters. The entire process is automated and controlled from the control room operators de-icing installations that have been trained in the Bureau of training. The change involved two employees. The maximum time defrosting material (16 W/wagons) at a temperature of minus 30 degrees to 23.3 hours.
