ENGINEERING FOR A
NEW SINTER PLANT IN
UKRAINE

ACHIEVED RESULTS

THE CUSTOMER• Low environmental impact (majorimprovement over current emission levels)

Name. PJSC YENAKIIEVE Iron & Steel Works
Location. Enakievo, Donetsk, Ukraine• High sinter quality• High performance

PJSC YENAKIIEVE Iron & Steel Works is one of
the leading Ukrainian fully integrated steel making
companies being a part of Metinvest Group
Metallurgical Devision. Yenakiieve Steel produces
a wide range of metal products: concast,billets, angles, channels, beams, shapes for shipbuilding and engineering industry and rebars forconstruction sector. The overall steel productionof Yenakiieve Iron & Steel Works results to 2,5Mt/year• Improved efficiency• Maximum system and plant availability at low
maintenance costs• High flexibility in raw material selection

THE CHALLENGESCOPE OF SUPPLY

The fully integrated steel making company PJSC Yenakiieve
Iron and Steel Works (EMZ) decided to improve its
production and environmental situation by building a newsinter plant according to the highest standards, equippedwith highly efficient offgas cleaning and de-dusting
facilities. To achieve these targets, Primetals Technologies
was selected as a supplier. The project was split into threestages: basic engineering, selected detail engineering, andprocurement and construction. While the first two stages
have already been completed to the client’s complete
satisfaction, the third stage can only be realized after thepolitical situation has stabilized.

• Process and plant engineering

THE SOLUTION
In order to achieve high productivity and the required
sinter quality, the sinter plant is designed with the latest
Primetals Technologies developments to produce sinterfor high performance of the blast furnace and ensure a low
environmental impact from the sinter offgas. The plant isequipped with the following unique Primetals Technologies:• Basic engineering (including input for approval by
Ukrainian authorities)• Selected detail engineering
