With less than two months left before the scheduled start of demolition in August 2009, P.I. International is offering a last chance opportunity to purchase some or all of the assets of Port Kembla Copper (PKC) – including bulk handling equipment, two anode furnaces and anode casting equipment. At www.pkcassets.com you can download equipment lists, presentations, and see more details of the equipment including a few videos.

Ron Pariani of P.I. International notes “we have been advised that once demolition starts, access to the site will be limited and the priority will be the remediation of the site. There will not be access for safe non-destructive removal of valuable process equipment.” 

The PKC process consists of five key process areas:

• Concentrate receiving and handling
• Primary smelting furnaces
• Secondary smelting furnaces
• Acid plant
• Refinery
• Waste water treatment plant.
