Description
The project includes investments in a new lead refining plant and zinc electrolysis unit both replacing outdated units, and the upgrade of the zinc recycling unit resulting in lower production costs, better environmental performance, increased recycling rates of lead and zinc containing waste, and better working conditions.
Objectifs
This project aims at decoupling growth from use of resources and emissions (including greenhouse gases emissions) by: - an increased processing capacity, with a focus to increase treatment of waste streams containing zinc/lead and increase eco-effectiveness of finite precious metals in the region; - an increase the circularity of metals; - a decrease in production costs by improving resource efficiency, raw materials flexibility and shift from heavy fuel to natural gas; - a reduction of the environmental impact of its production to comply with future/more stringent regulations and ensure better working conditions for its production staff, and - a reduced reliance on concentrates from the mining sector, and related risk, e.g. price fluctuations and supply disruptions.
