PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY
DEVELOPMENT DIVISION<\/span><\/p>\n

The Proprietary Technology Development Division (DDTP), created in 2007, alongside its renovated Technological Center, which focuses on projects in R&D to develop new technologies in TR\u2019s strategic sectors, is the result of these activities initiated in 1971.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 1971, TR created the Research and Development Division as a business<\/strong> unit to specialise in hydrometallurgical and electrochemical processes.<\/p>\n

1974<\/span>RESEARCH

1976, First industrial achievement…<\/span><\/p>\n

Metalqu\u00edmica del Nervi\u00f3n, the first hydrometallurgical plant in the world to produce SHG ZINC through solvent extraction methods ZincexTM<\/sup> process. <\/p>\n

1977<\/span> MERCURY RECOVER<\/p>\n

In 1977, the first plant was set up to recover MERCURY<\/b> in industrial effluents from chlorine-soda plants through solvent extraction: the Mercurex process.<\/p>\n

Its success allowed it to license and operate two more plants, one in 1978 and another in 1982, for the same industrial group (EIASA) with the same process.<\/p>\n

1980<\/span>
\nNew standard for Zincex TM<\/sup> process<\/span><\/p>\n

\nSPENT DOMESTIC BATTERIES
RECYCLING PLANT<\/span><\/p>\n

En 1987<\/b> en Catalu\u00f1a (Espa\u00f1a) se pone en marcha una planta para el reciclado de bater\u00edas dom\u00e9sticas agotadas para la obtenci\u00f3n de sulfato de zinc ultra-puro.<\/b><\/p>\n

1988<\/span>
\nCOPPER SX
PROCESS<\/span><\/p>\n

In 1988<\/b>, a new plant was built in Almagrera (Andaluc\u00eda, Spain). It produced for a COPPER salt production (CuSO4.5H2O) through another process licencsed by TR: the Copper SX Pprocess. <\/p>\n

2003<\/span>
\nMODIFIED ZINCEX TM<\/sup> PROCESS (MZP) <\/span><\/p>\n

In 2003, a new plant was set up in Namibia for the production of 150,000 tpa of SHG zinc through the modified ZincexTM<\/sup> process (MZP), constituting an improvement in the ZincexTM<\/sup> technology.<\/p>\n

In 2010 in Akita (Japan), Dowa Minerals opened a new production plant for 20,000 tpa of SHG zinc using the modified ZincexTM process (MZP) applied to secondary materials of Zn.<\/p>\n

In 2013, in Portoscuso, Sardinia (Italy), Glencore opened a new production plant for 52,000 tpa of SHG zinc from Waelz oxides and Kivcet oxides using the modified a ZincexTM process (MZP).<\/p>\n

In 2014, in Mooresboro, North Carolina (USA), the Horsehead Corporation opened a new production plant for 140,000 tpa of SHG zinc from Waelz oxide using the modified ZincexTM process (MZP), as well as a production plant using ECOLEADTM technology, for 6,000 tpa of lead and 17 tpa of silver.<\/p>\n

WORLD LEADER<\/span>
\nCurrently more than 300,000 tpa of Super High Grade (SHG) Zinc are produced worldwide in various plants using ZincexTM Technology, consolidating TR as a world leader in the production of Zinc through its patented technology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"T\u00c9CNICAS REUNIDAS T\u00e9cnicas Reunidas S.A (TR) is an international general contractor that provides engineering, design and construction of various types of industrial facilities for a wide range of customers throughout the world.
