Yuzhny Kuzbass, a part of Mechel, has purchased a pump for coal concentrate water separation before drying valued at some 6 million rubles for its Siberia central processing factory.
The new pump boasts better productivity, as it creates up to 300 cubic meters of air environment per minute, and can also decrease electricity expenses. The Siberia factory operates 7 pumps of the type. Depending on the coal grade, two, three or more pumps are put into operation. (Ukrainian metal)
