Following the order for a new billet welder and spooler line to be installed at the SDI Structural and Rail Products Div. Columbia City, Indiana facility, the mini-mill group has now ordered a water-treatment plant to complete the project.
The new water-treatment plant will include the indirect cooling circuit (460 m3/h) and direct cooling circuits (1100 m3/h) equipped with DANfilterTM.
DANfilterTM -Danieli patented sand filters require fewer units, thus reducing plant CapEx by about 30% and footprint by about 50%. At the same time, DANfilterTM improves the quality the water.
The new SDI water treatment plant has been designed for future rolling mill expansion.
Commissioning of the water-treatment plant is expected by Q3 2018.
