Publication Date: 19.08.2020, 14:00

The parameters have changed significantly.

Dorogobuzh plant (part of Acron Group) has completed a technical re-equipment of ammonia production.

The implementation of the project made it possible to increase the capacity of the unit from 1.740 thousand tons to 2.1 thousand tons, reducing the consumption of natural gas by 7%. It’s planned to produce 130 thousand tons of product per year. Total investments in the project exceeded 5 billion rubles (approximately $68.3 million).

The ammonia unit with a designed capacity of 450 thousand tons per year was commissioned at the Dorogobuzh plant in December 1979.
