On the site of Pervouralsk Pipe Plant (PNTZ, part of ChelPipe Group), AQA Genesis, a modern water refining system, has been launched to provide a “green” water supply circuit for pipe production processes and to significantly reduce the plant’s environmental footprint. RUB 520 million was invested in the facility commissioned as part of AQA, a multi-phase programme to upgrade water systems of ChelPipe Group’s assets.
Dmitry Kobylkin, Russian Minister of Natural Resources and Environment, and Vasily Osmakov, Deputy Russian Minister of Industry and Trade attended the ceremony online. The facility launched by Yevgeny Kuyvashev, Governor of the Sverdlovsk Region, Andrey Komarov, Chairman of ChelPipe Group’s Board of Directors, and Danila Shestakov, an activist of the City of Leaders social movement.
AQA Genesis is based on the best available technologies and uses Russian-made latest generation equipment – an automated process monitoring and control system, which records every parameter, related to water quality and consumption. Every hour, AQA Genesis withdraws water from PNTZ’s pipe rolling process, exposes it to multi-stage treatment – sedimentation, reagent treatment, clarification, cooling, removal of sediments and oil products – before returning it to the facility for reuse.
AQA Genesis will recycle 33,000 cubic metres of water per day, reduce the asset’s industrial effluents by 30%, the content of suspended solids in water sevenfold, iron – sixfold, and oil products – more than hundredfold. AQA Genesis provides a recycling water supply solution to minimise river water usage.
