Outotec to deliver copper smelting technology and services to RTB Bor in Serbia
Outotec has signed a contract with SNC-Lavalin, a Canadian engineering and
construction company, to design and deliver a new copper flash smelting furnace
and related services to RTB Bor's smelter in Serbia. The contract value exceeds
EUR 60 million.
RTB Bor is currently operating an old reverb type copper smelter and plans to
replace it with Outotec® Flash Smelting Furnace, which will significantly
improve the environmental performance of the plant.
Outotec's turnkey delivery includes engineering and license for a new flash
smelting furnace, equipment supplies, procurement, as well as construction and
commissioning services. The project is scheduled for completion in late 2013 and
the new facility will produce annually 80,000 tons of copper anode while
reducing liquid and gaseous emission levels to European standards.
"This contract demonstrates the strong drive for sustainability in the
metallurgical industry. Outotec® Flash Smelting technology is the cleanest
method available for the treatment of copper sulfide ores. In addition, it
provides considerable savings in energy consumption compared to other
corresponding technologies. With a mission of sustainable use of Earth's natural
resources, we are continuously developing our technologies and services to help
our customers, such as RTB Bor, provide a healthier environment for the
citizens", says Outotec CEO Pertti Korhonen.
