TALKE accomplishes mechanical completion of SLOVNAFT project
The silo farm with 28 silos is the heart of the logistics plant for the storage and handling of polyethylene granules. The new logistics complex is fed directly from the production facility and is designed to handle up to 220,000 metric tons polyethylene per year. The new facility on the premises of the petrochemical division of Bratislava-based SLOVNAFT Group includes warehousing and packaging capacities, offices, traffic routes and manoeuvring areas. In addition, TALKE’s design comprises two bagging lines, three loading stations for bulk cargo and the product transfer lines leading from the degasification silos to the storage silos.
