| Case Study: Pre-feasibility Study for a Greenfield Continuous Casting & Rolling Plant |
|
Recently CRU Strategies were asked to undertake a pre-feasibility study to establish the market for, and the technical and commercial viability of, a continuous casting and cold rolling operation in the Middle East. Part of the project included a technical study for which they approached Innoval. We provided information on the optimal scale of the plant and the choice of technology. This was followed by an overview of the plant layout with construction and capital costs. We also advised on the raw material requirements, labour requirements and operating costs and we gave an overview of the environmental issues. Colin Pratt, Managing Consultant, CRU Strategies, had this to say about the project:
Because of their independence and well-known technical expertise in the field of aluminium rolling, it was the logical choice to bring Innoval on-board when we compiled this study. We hope to collaborate again on future aluminium projects.   For more information please contact: This case study appears as an article in the 2009 edition of 'innform'; the newsletter of Innoval Technology.
