Oxygen filtration station,
Oxygen supply and reduction station,
Low-pressure pipelines supplying oxygen to bf blast pipelines.
The installation is now undergoing rinsing – degreasing to be followed by a pressure test performed together with a notified body, installation of fittings and commissioning.
