TechnipFMC has announced the completed construction of a new ammonia production unit called “Ammonia 4”, executed for Duslo a.s, part of the Agrofert group.
The plant passed performance tests in July 2018. This new unit operates in the existing fertilizer complex located in Sal’a, in Slovak Republic.
TechnipFMC’s scope included the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of this new ammonia unit. The contract awarded in 2014 was executed by the company’s operational centre in Rome, Italy.
Ammonia 4 is based on Haldor Topsoe’s last generation technology. It has a capacity of 1600 tpd of ammonia with an estimated operating life of 40 years.
With the completion of the Ammonia 4 plant, Duslo a.s has become one of Europe's top ammonia producers in terms of energy efficiency and volume of emissions.
