Valves for Ammonia & Fertiliser Plants — Kitwe
Kitwe is the commercial heart of Zambia's Copperbelt — Glencore's Mopani Copper Mines (Nkana Division, Kitwe; Mufulira Division 30 km north; combined capacity 100,000 t/yr copper plus cobalt) and Chibuluma South Mine require continuous supply of slurry-resistant knife gate valves (SS 316L, rubber-lined), PTFE-lined butterfly and ball valves for sulfuric acid SX-EW circuits, and ASME B16.34 process valves for flotation and hydrometallurgy plants; the Nkana copper smelter (195,000 t/yr copper anode capacity) requires refractory-lined gate valves and stainless globe valves for anode furnace cooling water circuits; Vajra Industrial Solutions supplies Kitwe-based mining contractors and procurement offices with slurry and acid-service valves, ISO 9001 documentation, and DDP delivery via Lusaka.
High-pressure WC9 gate valves, LF2 ball valves, and NACE MR0103-compliant valves for ammonia synthesis loops, urea reactors, and fertiliser production systems.
