Houston/USA – KBR has recently been awarded a contract to utilise its proprietary Plinke Magnac technology to produce high concentration nitric acid at Grupa Azoty's Tarnow site in Poland.

KBR will provide basic and detailed engineering design, equipment, and related advisory services for the plant, which will be built adjacent to an existing plant that was also supplied by KBR and has been in operation since 1998.

Magnac is used to produce 98.5 wt % high-concentration nitric acid from fresh, weak nitric acid. KBR's proven process and patented, unique equipment design and material selection ensure plant availability and reliability to deliver a high-value product to the market.

Specialist Book „Heat Transfer Technique“The comprehensive standard work „Heat Transfer Technique“ offers not only a detailed and well-founded presentation of the basics of heat transfer technique, but also shows the latest state of the art and the latest regulations in the use of organic fluids. Thematically, the book is rounded off with an overview of property data of organic heat transfer fluids as well as many use cases from practical experience.

"This contract reinforces KBR's existing relationship with Grupa Azoty," said Doug Kelly, KBR President, Technology Solutions. "We are proud to deliver well-proven solutions that will enable Grupa Azoty to achieve its business expansion goals safely, reliably and efficiently."
