Vanadium completes environmental project
17 January 2008 (09:05)
Kachkanarskiy Ore Mining and Processing Enterprise (aka Vanadium, part of Evraz Group) completed its three-year environmental project. As a result, the company’s agglomeration facilities have been fitted with gas purifying units, the spokesperson for Evraz Group said to UrBC.
The company’s agglomeration plant received a modern electric precipitator capable of cleaning up to 1 million cubic meters of exit gas an hour. Its powerful electrodes can trap 3,400 tons of iron-ore concentrate dust a year.
It took the enterprise six months to complete the installation of the precipitator. All the component parts of the 130-ton body, the mechanical equipment, and the electrodes were made by the plants located in Yaroslavl and Sverdlovsk Regions.
The installation was Vanadium’s last investment in its environmental project that let the company cut down on its harmful emissions by 17,000 tons in 2007.
The company has replaced six older gas-cleaning units since 2004, so all the agglomeration facilities are now fitted with new and modern equipment. The amount of trapped agglomeration dust is estimated at 20,400 tons annually.
