97 Category 3: Industrial Buildings and Plants 3 Owner: YARAAB, Köping, Sweden Architect Jan Zmelík General Contractor YARAAB, Köping, Sweden Engineering Office Casale Project a.s. Construction Period 10/2015 - 02/2017 The construction site is located in Köping, Sweden. Köping has two nitric acid plants and two technical ammonium nitrate plants. The site also produces chemicals for technical and industrial use (DeNOx, water treatment). The planned production in the new plant SYRA 4 is 685 tons of nitric acid per day. There are several steel structure units – compressor house, nitric acid process unit including PGC house, pump station, potable and demineralisation water System, nitric acid tanks, electrical substation, pipe and cable rack. Structural engineering software SCIA Engineer was used for the design of all steel structure models using European hot-rolled profiles. After climate and technological loads have been applied, the structures were analysed and evaluated according to the Eurocodes. During the design and loading process the steel structure designers co- operated closely with other professions – piping, equipment and electrical. The import/export files into/from software Aveva and Advance steel were used. The results of the static analysis (reactions, anchoring design, global end connection forces, deformations, bearing capacity, unity check of steel) were presented in the Engineering Report and in a common civil/mechanical 3D model using software Navisworks. SYRA 4 Plant - Köping, Sweden Casale Project a.s. Contact Jan Zmelík Address Sokolovská 685/136f 186 00 Prague, Czech Republic Website www.casaleproject.cz Casale is one of the oldest companies active in the field of synthetic ammonia production. Throughout its existence, Casale has been active in the construction of new plants. Casale acquired in 2014 from Borealis (formerly GPN) the complete set of that company’s proprietary process technologies for the production of nitric acid (NA), ammonium nitrate (AN), urea-ammonium nitrate solution (UAN) and multi-nutrient fertilizer products, including its granulation technology. Urea is one of the most important agricultural fertilizers. A large part of the ammonia produced in the world is transformed into urea in plants installed downstream of ammonia production units.
