Pilot HSDG units

Petrovietnam (Vietnam). The pilot HSDG unit was

successfully started up. The trial batches of the fertilizers

were produced. The construction of commercial-scale

HSDG unit is being discussed with the Customer.

QAFCO (Qatar). The project at the

commissioning phase.

HSDG for prilled urea fattening, total capacity – 500 TPD

at Kemerovo Azot, Russia

Undersize prills (smaller than 2 mm) after the prilling tower are fattened (spherodized) in the HSDGs. Result: no undersize prills, finished product with improved properties.
