  At the biological treatment facilities (BOS) of PJSC Nizhnekamskneftekhim, where the revamp of the mechanical cleaning of chemically polluted effluent is finished, works started on the commissioning of bio-filters. It is unique equipment that allows neutralizing volatile hydrocarbons that come from the industrial site along with wastes, and they are a source of unpleasant odors

  A bio-film is formed inside the bio-filters on a special carrier, where special microorganisms have been made into biomass for its formation, and they will absorb the odorous gases.

  This process is monitored not only by the Company as a technology developer and the supplier of the Median-Filter equipment, but also by specialists from the UVK and OSV (water and wastewater treatment plant), the scientific and technological center, the biofeedback laboratory and the sanitary laboratory. Analysis are done daily, the results are important for understanding the ways microorganisms are being developed, evaluations of their ability to purify air are performed.

  Azat Bikmurzin, the General Director, held a retreat at the BOS, where they discussed the progress of works and the organizational issues of preparing the facility for commissioning. All the work carried out at the complex will allow bringing the treatment of industrial wastes and their quality control to a fundamentally new, modern level at the end. The new unit will hugely improve the quality of wastewater treatment, and most important is, it will improve the quality of atmospheric air.

  General purpose polystyrene (polyvinylbenzene), brand PSON-25FEB, has excellent strength properties, good rigidity and resistance to mechanical stress. It is intended for the production of sheets and bi-axially oriented film (BOPS film), which has the highest transparency and brilliance. The material is chemically resistant to strong acids and alkalis. This brand is also used for the manufacture of blisters for the packaging of medicines and Correxes - liners in the boxes of chocolates, forms of rigid film and other piece goods.

  The advantages of bromobutyl rubber brand 232 is that it cures much faster than butyl rubber. The rate of vulcanization of bromobutyl rubber is comparable with the rate of vulcanization of natural, styrene-butadiene and other rubbers, which makes it possible to use it in mixtures with these elastomers. Bromobutyl rubber brand 232 is used for the manufacture of pressure sheets for tubeless tires, heat-resistant conveyor belts, adhesives, sealants, medical products.

  Winning at the republican competition gives Nizhnekamskneftekhim the right to present these products in the Federal competition round, as part of the Program “100 Best Products of Russia”. The results will be announced in December.
