RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:LKAB / SSAB -- > Monday, August 31 The pilot plant starts !!I am sorry, I must have typed it wrong....
I meant that client C
WANTED to forgo modelling in order to speed up things, not that Pyrogenesis was willing to do it.
Hybrit would seem like a situation, because of their past connections and experiences with Pyrogenesis, where the modelling might be less important for them, which is why I suggested that.
Sorry for the confusion,
Cheers!

Each has it's own process flow sheet and, as the study says, equipment will have to adapted to the new energy source, be resized or replaced for the new gas flows, and deal with NOx in some manner. Expect at least 6 months of detailed engineering before the necessary changes are known.</p>
