RE:RE:RE:RE:Awesome Response From Peter!I'd just like to add that Peter stated many times there will be NO DOWNTIME OF THE OVEN for the replacement of the burner for torches.
In my field of work (IT sysadmin), we have a concept called redundancy in which we put more equipment in that is needed so that production is unaffected in case of a failure or to be able to take down one element for maintenance/replacement without affecting production.
I would believe that this is how they can replace them without turning off the line. Shutdown one oil burner, remove/add gas/electicity, take out burener, put torch in, plug it, turn it on and valide that everything is working properly and on to the next one.
Remember that those electrodes in the torches will also have to be replaced every few months without turning off the line.
So Olderguy, please get out of Pyr and be carefull to not let the door hit you on the way out...
There is no doubt in my mind that Olderguy is in the bashers team, even Peter knows it..

They have ro remove the existing torch and supporting infrastructure or make ready a new location for the new torch. They have to provide an electrical supply and possibly infrastructure for control and supply of whatever gas they are burning to create the plasma. Then they will likely have to shut down or pause production while they switch over torches.

Peter just verified what I said about the plasma torches being installed " remotely. " using a video link & the iron ore companies maintenance staff to do the switch to plasma torches. 2-3 technicians can switch 1 torch in a few hours. A very simple job. From that time forward the company will begin a massive reduction in GHG , and carbon taxes paid ...uncleron is always right ! ..Cheers....
You claim to be a long yet are constantly soft bashing this stock. You seem to clearly have some hidden agenda but either way what expertise do you have in knowing anything about industrial installations? Does there need to be downtime? Maybe how much only Pyrogenesis knows... but in my best estimate they will have 90% of the install done and do a swap on a weekend or off shift. This kind of stuff happens all the time. Where's my expertise? I'm an industrial electrician.... I install this kind of stuff. Don't create such a panic when you clearly don't know what you are talking about. Your incompetence boils my blood... these are bolt on replacements meaning they can and will be used in place of the old one and probably only need a small window of downtime maybe a day? An 8 hour shift? A 4 hour window? Maybe even an hour. I don't know depends on how much gets accomplished ahead of time.
