LJUNGSTRÖM continues to support the implementation of ultra-low emissions in the Chinese iron and steel industry with its gas-gas heaters (GGH) for flue gas Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) De Nitrification plants. These SCR plants are typically a retrofit to the existing equipment at the iron and steel plants, and a vital part of the “Blue Sky Battle Plan” launched in 2018 to fight air pollution from industrial sources.

The Laiwu Iron and Steel Group Co. (Liagang Group) is a super large iron and steel complex with a production capacity of more than 10 million tons, and it is the largest production base in China for H beams, gear steel, and powder metallurgy products.

LJUNGSTRÖM has completed the delivery and successful start-up of three (3) GGH units at the steel complex under aggressive and accelerated delivery schedules that required the support structure to be delivered within 60 days of the contract signing, and all remaining parts delivered within 90 days. Upon completion of the installation, commissioning and plant start-up the performance indexes of the GGH units met all the technical requirements of the contract, with the customer and plant owner thankful of the timely completion of the project and quality of the Ljungström® gas-gas heater equipment.

“We are excited that our equipment plays a key role in the reduction of air pollution in China, and continue to support customers with quality products that they can depend on. Our teams in Shanghai, Beijing and Nantong work tirelessly to meet our customer requirements and schedules.” said Haiming Li, Managing Director, LJUNGSTRÖM China
