On August 4, 2021, a meeting of the heads of the Don State Technical University, the metallurgical company Donelektrostal and NP EUROSOLAR Russia took place at the Don State Technological University.
NP EUROSOLAR Russia intends to jointly with DSTU and large industrial enterprises of the Rostov region to implement projects on decarbonization of production and sustainable low-carbon development of industrial and agricultural enterprises.
NP EUROSOLAR Russia has a successful experience in implementing projects related to technology transfers for solving environmental issues of industrial enterprises.
As a result of the meeting, NP EUROSOLAR Russia and DSTU agreed to define specific tasks and areas of joint activity and consolidate them in the cooperation agreement.
Also at the meeting, an agreement was signed on cooperation between Donelektrostal and DSTU within the framework of the consortium "Technologies of a new agro-industrial complex and health saving in the conditions of green urbanization", initiated by DSTU. Within the framework of cooperation, it is planned to launch a joint laboratory "Green and waste-free technologies".
The company, together with the university, intends to implement a number of research projects, including developing a technology for processing technogenic formations of ferrous metallurgy.
– Many metallurgical enterprises face difficulties in processing industrial waste. It is necessary to introduce new technologies into production, taking into account the environmental aspect. We intend to work together with the Don State Technical University to solve this problem, "said Vladimir Gverdtsiteli, Director of Donelektrostal. – Also, together with the university, we have started creating a laboratory that will work on projects to improve the energy efficiency of technologies used in our production to reduce energy costs, the use of alternative energy sources at metallurgical enterprises.
The consortium "Technologies of a new agro-industrial complex and health saving in the conditions of green urbanization" includes universities and scientific organizations, as well as a number of large companies of the Rostov region. The participants of the association will be engaged in scientific activities in a number of areas: electric machines and robots; green and waste-free technologies; the Institute of living systems; health and functional nutrition; food storage and processing; smart construction; intelligent logistics and transport; new food resources.
– The format of interaction between universities, research institutes and enterprises within the framework of the consortium is the most acceptable for conducting research and development work. DSTU initiated the creation of three such associations – - said the rector of DSTU Besarion Meskhi. - The consortium "Technologies of a new agro-industrial complex and health saving in the conditions of green urbanization" is focused on creating breakthrough eco-friendly technologies for the agro-industrial complex, and cooperation with companies such as Donelektrostal will allow implementing breakthrough projects to solve specific production tasks.
LLC "Donelektrostal" was established in 2020 in Shakhty. The company was created to implement a project for the construction of a full-cycle metallurgical plant. The product line will be represented by shaped rolled products and rolled wire, which are widely used in the construction of buildings and structures, heavy engineering, car building, etc. The company will also organize waste-free processing of metal dust that occurs in the process of metallurgical production.
