Cold Crystallization Plant (CCP II)

A second Cold Crystallization Plant (CCP II) has been recently built and put into operation in late 2010 to give a total production of 450,000 tpy.

The new plant is much similar to the Cold Crystallization Plant I, but with enhancement of modified processes and advanced technology.  The modifications tackle the areas of crystallization, flotation, screening, leaching and other areas. An advanced control system (DCS) has been incorporated to facilitate the control of various processes. Highly efficient dust collection systems have been included in the new plant to ensure minimum dust emissions into the surrounding environment. A new compaction plant has also been installed to produce 250,000 MT per year of high quality granular potash.  The new compaction plant comprises a post-treatment unit intended for enhancing the quality of granular potash.
