Two of the largest pieces of process equipment for Alpha HPA’s HPA First Facility have been successfully installed on site this week.
The 26-metre-tall reagent absorber and the fume scrubber have been transported to site and erected, the conclusion of months of planning, engineering, logistics and construction coordination.
Positioning equipment of this scale requires careful preparation and close collaboration between partners, contractors and site teams. Supported by specialist lifting equipment and expertise from Walz Group, the installation marks another step forward for the project.
Construction Manager Grant Wilson commented, “The final lifts are the most visible part of the job, but there’s a huge amount of work that happens in the background to get to that point. Seeing both vessels safely installed is a credit to everyone involved, from planning and logistics through to the crews on the ground who made it happen.”
With both vessels now in position, another important element of the facility has moved from design drawings to reality.
