[Ongoing] Big River Steel Works, the new state-of-the-art mill in Arkansas

BRSW has awarded Russula the construction of one of the largest water treatment plants (WTP) ever built for the metallurgical sector. The water plant is divided into 13 circuits that treat daily more than 65 million liters (17M gal) per hour. The WTP is composed of a make-up water treatment area, contact and non-contact cooling circuits, an effluent treatment area and an advanced effluent recovery system.

This water treatment plant represents the know-how acquired by Russula over many years and includes new processes such as the effluent recovery system, which applies the latest techniques in water treatment. As a result, the new plant will significantly exceed the environmental requirements and reduce water consumption to only 1.5 million of liters (396k gal) per hour, by recovering the vast majority of the water discharged into the environment.
