SATKA METALLURGICAL MILL IS ONE OF THE OLDEST AND RECOGNIZED FACTORIES IN EURASIA
In the times of Russian Tsaritca, Anna, by order of the Berg-Collegium (the Ministry of Mines), dated November 14, 1756, a piece of land in the South Ural mountains was dedicated to building a Pig Iron Smelting Plant.
Due to the abundant resources such as water, energy, and minerals, a man named Baron Stroganov purchased a plot of land right at the intersection between the Small Satka and Big Satka rivers for a mere 200 rubles.
Two years later, in 1758, what became known as the Satka Metallurgical Mill produced its first pig iron.
The Satka Metallurgical Mill, Satka Chugunoplavilny Zavod, quickly grew to become one of the biggest metallurgical plants in the Southern Urals producing an annual 960mt in 1759 and 42,986mt by 1913.
A hydro electrical power station was added to the mill in later stages. During the Napoleonic War, The First and Second World War, the Satka mill served as a military plant producing grenades and bombs. After the war years, the mill contributed to the local community by building condominiums heated with energy from its power plant as well as schools and kindergartens.
During the Soviet times, Satka was the only mill in Russia that could pride itself in having received the GOST 805- certification for its pig-iron.
Then, due to drastic changes in the economic structure of Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union, the mill switched to the production of High Carbon Ferromanganese by 2002.
At present, the Satka Metallurgical Mill operates with two blast furnaces and many parts of the production process have and are being updated with new technology and innovations.
These efforts were rewarded with an ISO 9001:2001 certificate on the June 2, 2008 (Certificate # RU227146), which was especially rewarding since the mill celebrated its 250th anniversary in November of that year.
Nevertheless, the mill constantly focuses its attention on matters of optimizing the use of non-replaceable energy sources and technological advances. It continually researches and develops consequent modifications for the diversification of production.
The latest figures show that the Satka plant has accumulated considerable expertise and knowledge in blast-furnace operations, which ranks the mill to be among the top most efficient manganese converters. The Satka Metallurgical Mill has also set relations with several of the world‘s best specialists in metallurgy for further improvement of the manganese yield.
