Smelting Shop No. 4 is the newest unit of the enterprise. This shop uses an innovation technology of smelting in the direct current furnaces being a unique one not only for the Republic of Kazakhstan, but also for the global ferroalloys industry. The shop is equipped with the most efficient (72 MW) direct current furnaces in the world for the production of high-carbon ferrochrome. The whole process is automated as much as possible. The production solutions make it possible to dispose of the ferroalloys gas and dust. Domestic raw materials – fine ore and carbon reductants are used for the furnaces.
Particular attention is paid to safety and environmental protection. This project aims to treat the wastewater produced while chrome production.
