The construction for water treatment plant of 2250mm hot rolling mill and gas holders for the entire plant of Zhanjiang Steel (Baosteel Group) started at the end of December 2013. The project was contracted by CISDI on EPC basis.

Construction Starts for Water Treatment System of 2250mm HSM

December 7, 2013 witnessed the start of construction for water treatment of 2,250mm HSM, Zhanjiang steel.

2250mm hot strip mill is one of the core projects of Zhanjiang steel, and the water treatment project is intended to provide water treatment system for the hot strip mill, covering reheating furnace, indirect cooling water circulation, laminar cooling water circulation, direct cooling water circulation and sludge treatment. The water treatment system is designed with capacity of 36,361m3/h, and 98.9% of water will be reused.

Construction Starts for Gas Holder Project.

The groundbreaking ceremony for gas holder project of Zhanjiang Steel was hold on December 30, 2013.

The project covers one 300,000m³ blast furnace gas holder, one 150,000 m³ coke oven gas holder and two 120,000m3 LDG holder.

Baosteel Zhanjiang Plant is located in Guangdong where the rainy season and dry season is distinct, so the construction period available is relatively short due to heavy rainfall. Accordingly, the project team has developed strict plan to make the best out of the alternating dry and rainy season, which means that steel structures will be fabricated during rainy season while civil construction and steel structure installation is arranged in dry season. .

Gas holder system plays a big role in balancing the fuel gas distribution and supply for the entire plant and in reducing gas emission. CISDI has made calculation model and wind load distribution test under typhoon conditions in order to present appropriate design for the typhoon, thunderstorms and high corrosion environment in Zhanjiang area.
