Khimprom JSC (Volgograd, Russia) to use Uhde Thyssen Krupp`s membrane technology

Uhde Thyssen Krupp, a  German engeneering company, has presented a membrane technology for chlorine and caustic soda production at Khimprom, said the company lately. The technology  could  enable Khimprom to improve   performance and reduce energy costs. In addition, it would cut an amount of processed waste at the plant.

At present Khimprom is carrying out a safety management programme providing for  the electrolysis unit to be repaired by the end of September. As a part of this programme, Khimprom plans to substitute  diaphragm electrolysis production by the one using Uhde membrane technology.

The company announced a  tender to find a potential partner that will share the  technology.
