AMPO POYAM VALVES will supply 900 slurry angle severe service valves in 2020 for National Aluminium Company Limited (NALCO), which is one of the largest integrated bauxite, alumina and aluminium power complexes in India. The refinery has planned a revamp in the existing High Rate Tailing Thickener (HRT) unit, which plays a vital role in bauxite tailings separating diverse residues, and consequently, new slurry application valves will be installed here.
Furnace Fabrica India Limited was awarded the engineering, construction, and procurement contract for this revamp and it has relied on AMPO POYAM VALVES for the design and manufacture of 900 slurry angle slurry, bayonet, three-way, straight through and lift check valves.
AMPO POYAM VALVES’ expertise and know-how have allowed developing an optimal solution in terms of materials, design and valve performance, considering the heavy slurry service at the refinery.
All those valves will be manufactured in AMPO INDIA, which comprises an area of approximately 15,000 square meters in Coimbatore (Tamil Nadu), India and which includes a valve assembly, testing, painting and packing facilities. Here, AMPO INDIA is able to manufacture up to 72” size valves.
