Ukrainian steelmaker Ilyich Iron and Steel Works of Mariupol (Ilyich), a subsidiary of Ukraine's largest vertically-integrated mining and steel group Metinvest, has stated that it has invested more than UAH 20 million ($1.68 million) in the capital overhaul of its agglomachine No. 12. The renovated unit is equipped with a modern management system and 100 percent replacement of rundown filtering gas cleaning elements will enable the reduction of dust emissions.
After the capital overhaul, Ilyich's sinter factory will be able to produce a more qualitative product at the expense of fines reduction in finished agglomerate. The performed repair works will minimize the amount of emergency stops of equipment.
