Coal Handling and Preparation Plant
Having established Mongolia’s first Coal Handling and Preparation Plant (CHPP) at Ukhaa khudag, Energy Resources LLC is today a leading exporter of value-added, high-quality coking coal in Mongolia. The plant is comprised of three processing modules with a collective capacity to process 15 million tons of raw coal annually. While the 1st and 2nd modules of the plant are operational from 2011 and 2012 respectively, the 3rd module was put into operation in 2013. The CHPP enables the company to sell washed hard coking coal products, making a significant contribution to raising the market recognition and competitiveness of Mongolian coking coal globally. The CHPP was built and designed by Sedgman company of Australia, one of the world leaders in coal processing and material handling technology. The CHPP’s highly automated, cutting-edge technology allows up to 95% water-recycling making it an optimal environmental solution. This high-efficiency water recovery solution is tailored specifically to the unique environmental conditions of Gobi region. Since operations began in 2011, the CHPP has produced approximately 80 million tonnes of value-added coal products.Timeline of the modules
