    Metso to supply zinc smelter expansion

    Metso has been awarded an order to supply key cellhouse process equipment for a zinc smelter expansion project in South Asia. The value of the order was undisclosed, as was the name of the customer, which is one of the leading zinc producers globally.

    The zinc plant project is based on Metso’s calcine leaching, solution purification, and cellhouse process technology. The delivery includes the latest high-capacity zinc cathode stripping machines, an anode washing and flattening machine, as well as the largest entity of cooling towers supplied by Metso to date, designed to maintain optimal electrolyte temperature and support efficient electrolysis performance. Metso will also provide advisory site services during project implementation.
