Protective atmosphere gas plant has been delivered to manufacturer of copper and copper alloy products to be used in the continuous casting installation.
Ebner Industrieofenbau Gesellschaft received an order from company OAO MMK in Magnitogorsk/Russia, one of the biggest Russian steel producers, for the delivery of a HICON/H2 top hat annealing furnace plant to anneal bundles of steel bands in a pure hydrogen atmosphere.
In the first phase of the modernization program, 45 existing HN annealing sites with 240,000 tons annual annealing capacity will be replaced by 36 annealing sites with HICON/H2 technology and 600,000 tons annual annealing capacity.
With these new installations OAO MMK will be in a position to manufacture high-grade steel for the car industry.
The Mahler IGS hydrogen plant will be delivered to Ebner Industrieofenbau Gesellschaft at the end of August 2003.
There are four months available for both the erection and the commissioning of the plant in Magnitogorsk in the Ural mountains.
The whole of the hydrogen generation plant will be completely installed indoors.
