Tackling The Key Challenge Of SO2 Emissions
In Polar Division implements a system of measures aimed at
reduction of SO2 emissions to Maximum Permissible Emissions
which includes:
■
Development of the concentration facilities of the Talnakh
Concentrator in order to maximize sulphur percentage in
final tailings without losses of valuable metals
Modernization of pyrometallurgical processing facilities of
the Nadezhda Metallurgical Plant and shutdown of the main
facilities of the Nickel Plant situated in the immediate vicinity
of the residential areas being a source of weak sulfureous
gas which is difficult to recycle
In June 2012, MMC Norilsk Nickel signed contract with
Techint S.p.A (Italy) to develop design documentation with
simultaneous specification of technical parameters at pilot
facilities and consequent construction of sulphur recycling
and storage facilities with a total capacity of up to 950
thousand tons per annum. The total amount of CapEx for
the project is USD1.7 bn
