History of OOO “Innovatsionnyie Tehnologii "Severnaya Rus”
1992 – establishment of the innovative partnership “Severnaya Rus” on the base of “PechorNIIproekt” institute laboratory, later transformed into OOO “Innovatsionnyie Tehnologii "Severnaya Rus”
– the company develops, produces and distributes mining equipment and also complex technological equipment for enterprises that operate in harsh conditions of the Far North
1995 – the company receives the UN official partner certificate in New York
Since – the company develops a new line of business: thermo- and hydro- insulation for industrial and dwelling buildings using solid polyurethane, applied by spraying, eggshell and tiled methods
2010 – the company’s project of decorative thermo-insulating panel production for construction use wins the Komi Republic’s priority innovative projects contest
2011 – years of research had led to creation of the unique technology that enabled production of fuel briquettes from coal slack without using binding additives, which was later tested at OOO “Intinskaya Teplovaya Kompaniya”

Unique technology advantages
“Severnaya Rus” is the only company in Russia and Europe that produces fuel briquettes from coal slack without using binding additives. These briquettes despite low production costs are on par with or better than traditional coal in terms of efficiency. Traditional coal is twice expensive and does not provide any consumer benefits. The direct who produce briquettes from coal slack with binding additives do not have a competitive advantage: they create a very similar product, yet with a higher production costs (due to higher raw material costs and more complex technological process).
Optimal:
structure size density humidity
Provide:
high combustion degree less smoke low level of carbon emission
Briquettes are produced from coal slack
The “negative costs” materials are used along with reclamation of lands occupied with piles and settling ponds
Briquettes could be produced from small coal fractions
Low liquidity coal fractions of high quality coal ore are included into the high demand product segment
Briquettes are of high mechanical resistance and of low hygroscopicity
Warehousing and logistics costs are reduced
Briquettes are produced without use of binding additives
Exclusion of binding additives could potentially lead to the fuel briquettes use in mettalurgy

General lines of the technology development in Russia
Economy – huge base of “negative costs” raw materials
Approximately 1% (~ 3 m tons per year) of overall coal mine excavation settles as a dust and slack on the coal processing facilities grounds. Stable trend of coal refinement will positively affect the growth of fine coal waste quantities.
Based on organic components the coal slack is similar to the traditional coal ore.
Estimated coal slack stocks
А. Novak, Minister of Energy of Russia:
«Levels of coal refinement will increase 1,9 times by compared to 2015 level and will be on a 345 m tons level»
~260,0 M tons
Annual growth of coal slack
~3,0 M tons
Ecology – one goal of the project is to clean the lands previously polluted during the coal refinement:
Decrease the intensity of human impact on the landscapes
Recuperation and further use of grounds occupied by the coal production waste (~5000 ha)
Government program «Energy efficiency and energy development» sets goals, achieved by the project of “Severnaya Rus”:
«Stable fuel and energy resources supply within the country; increase the efficiency of fuel and energy resources use; decrease the anthropogenic impact of fuel and energy industry on the environment»

Fuel briquettes
Briquettes made without use of binding additives can be used as raw material for coke production with further application in metallurgy
During the enrichment stage coal slack and small fractions are mixed in the right proportions to then be processed in the pre-briquetting stage
Unlike the small fractions of coal, briquettes can be used for pyrolysis in order to obtain coke
On a final stage coke could further be processed into briquettes or sent to the customers as raw material
