Terrafame, Finland
Project:
Mega Plant Project: Structural Design, Detail Design Construction Support
Terrafame OY appointed Process Plant Technology (PPTech) to design a New Metals
Converting Plant (NiSu) at their existing Sotkamo, Finland site. The NiSu consists of 3 processing
plants, Cobalt sulphate (CoS), Nickle sulphate (NiS) and Ammonium sulphate (AmS).
PPTech appointed Nurizon Consulting (Pty) Ltd. [Nurizon] for the structural steel design of
these plants.
The structures are generally separated into different modules for the different mechanical
equipment.

enhance structural stability.
The three plants and the respective modules were design in South Africa. Fabrication and
assembly took place in China. Complete assembled modules were sent via ship to Finland for
installation and commissioning. The crystalizer units for AmS and Nis were the only units
assembled on site. The project commenced in 2019 and commissioning for the plant started in
2021
