«Starokostiantynivcukor» LLC has a number of important reconstructions and modernizations of sugar production facilities, which aim to optimize work processes and significantly reduce energy use.

It is reported by the company on its Facebook-page.

«This year we have a number of important tasks that our entire team will work hard on, — said Vitaliy Kyryk, the sugar engineer's chief engineer. — The main one is the replacement of two evaporators with modern film ones».

At the same time, it is planned to reconstruct the limestone-fire extinguishing department with the replacement of the equipment: limestone-fire extinguisher, pumps and others. The old gas furnace will be dismantled.

These works are planned to be completed before the beginning of the new beet processing season. 

«As a result, we plan to reduce the number of pumps from 6 to 4, which will take less electricity. In general, these volumes of work will reduce the consumption of both limestone and coal», — said Mykola Oliynyk, head of the CHP.

Further plans of Starokostiantyniv sugar producers include the reconstruction of the exit-juice workshop.

«It will be a rather extensive reconstruction. We will take away the old vacuum filters and deliver another new filter press. All this must be done in order to reduce sugar losses during production and improve the suspension filtration scheme, — explains Vitaliy Kyryk. — Therefore, we are determined to work fruitfully with the whole team for a qualitatively high results».
