Group鈥檚 technology and proprietary equipment will help increase copper production at KGHM鈥檚 smelter
Technip was awarded a contract by KGHM(1) to provide engineering and procurement services for a 480 metric ton per day Dorr Oliver FluoSolids庐 roaster system for the Glogow I Copper Smelter Optimization Project in Glogow, Poland.
Based on Technip鈥檚 proprietary technology, this system will include the roaster, dry concentrate feeder and calcine cooler. These components will remove organic carbon and sulfide sulfur from copper concentrate. This will reduce smelter emissions and improve copper production at the site. The system also includes in-bed steam coils for cogeneration of electricity.
In addition to proprietary technology and equipment, Technip will provide erection supervision, commissioning, startup and training assistance to KGHM.
Technip鈥檚 operating center in Claremont, California, USA, will execute the project, which is scheduled for completion in 2017.
Stan Knez, President, Technip Stone & Webster Process Technology, commented: "Technip鈥檚 extensive experience in roasting technology along with our proven ability to meet a demanding schedule makes us uniquely qualified for this important project."
With more than 70 years of experience with the Dorr-Oliver FluoSolids庐 technology, Technip is a leading provider of fluidized bed equipment and systems for metallurgical roasting, calcining and drying, waste combustion and other diverse applications. The technology has been part of Technip鈥檚 portfolio since 2000. Other recent installations include the Koniambo Nickel in New Caledonia and Vale鈥檚 Copper Cliff smelter in Ontario, Canada.
