The calcium chloride turnkey project's annual production capacity is 135000 TPA and is valued at 20 million USD. Nuberg's scope of work includes plant design, detailed engineering and procurement of complex chemical equipment for TCI Sanmar for the anhydrous calcium chloride pellets/granules production at its site in Port Said (Egypt).
The technology supplier for the chemical plant is Zirax from Russia, a reputed global calcium chloride technology provider. Zirax's responsibility is to transfer the technology of production of liquid and anhydrous products and to provide basic engineering and technical regulation documents. The plant commissioning is planned to be by the end of 2017.
The calcium chloride plant is a part of Sanmar's already existing chemical complex, incorporating caustic soda plant, EDC (Ethylene Dichloride), VCM (Vinyle Chloride Monomer) and PVC plants. This chemical complex produces hydrochloric acid (HCL) which will be used to manufacture calcium chloride (CACL2).
The calcium chloride from the chemical plant will be supplied mostly to the markets of North and South America, Western Europe, Middle East and Africa.
Mr. A K Tyagi, Chairman, Nuberg Engineering said, "We are quite happy of our cooperation with Zirax for TCI Sanmar's calcium chloride plant and we suppose that this experience in Port Said will consolidate our relationship for joint performance as in the current project and in other future possible projects with a high professional involvement to meet the requirements of new customers."
Mr. K Satyanarayana Rao, Managing Director, TCI Sanmar Chemicals S.A.E. commented, "The start-up of the new calcium chloride granules production plant, which we will build up together with Nuberg and Zirax, will significantly raise TCI Sanmar's revenues and also allow us to expand our product portfolio."
Mr. Mikhail Petrushin, General Director, Zirax said, "As an engineering and production company we consider the signed agreement as a great honor. The cooperation with such respectful and professional clients and partners such as TCI Sanmar and Nuberg will allow us to provide efficient application of our experience and knowledge in high quality anhydrous calcium chloride pellets production for different purposes of the worldwide calcium chloride market which, from our point of view, feels a shortage of high quality products."
