Kola Mining and Metallurgical Company completes restructuring project of the ore-thermal furnaces, processing raw materials for production of nickel. At the final stage of the project maintenance crews MMC conducted a set of works on optimization of gas removal systems, furnaces №№ 3 and 4 of the smelter, located on-site nickel village. Because of this in the workplace will be significantly reduced indicators of sulfur dioxide emissions. Repair facilities cost the company 40 million. Rubles.

Before the repair of gas removal system in the smelter in the framework of the optimization of manufacturing processes on the line of nickel ore processing specialists of Kola MMC introduced the system of automatic loading of raw materials. Also on the 4th aspiration converter was built shelter that minimizes fugitive emissions of harmful substances. In addition, the redistribution converter were mounted frequency converters control systems, removal of smoke. The above measures significantly reduce the level of environmental pollution and make the working conditions at the plant are more comfortable and safe.
