Technip to provide services to a roasting system for KGHM

Technip has been awarded a contract by KGHM to provide engineering and procurement services for a 480 tpd Dorr Oliver FluoSolids® roaster system for the Glogow I Copper Smelter Optimisation Project in Glogow, Poland.

Based on Technip’s 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 co-generation of electricity.

In addition to proprietary technology and equipment, Technip will provide erection supervision, commissioning, startup and training assistance to KGHM.

Stan Knez, President, Technip Stone and Webster Process Technology, said, "Technip’s extensive experience in roasting technology along with our proven ability to meet a demanding schedule makes us uniquely qualified for this important project."

Technip’s operating centre in Claremont, California, USA, will execute the project, which is scheduled for completion in 2017.
