Universal Compressed Air to supply compressed air to major steel producer under long-term contract.
UCA will build, own and operate a state-of-the-art facility to provide up to 23,000 scfm of compressed dry air to the steel company under its long-term Pipeline AirTM performance contracting model resulting in significant savings and guaranteed reliability for the steel company. A Pipeline Air TM contract combines UCA’s compressed air supply expertise with the capabilities of highly efficient centrifugal air compressors, heat of compression air dryers, closed loop cooling systems and master controllers. The unmatched performance of the UCA Compressed Air System provides the backbone of comprehensive power and reliability guarantees and truly positions compressed air as a utility for the steel company.
Due to these factors, the steel company contracted with UCA for their compressed air needs. UCA will execute the design, construction, commissioning, startup, maintenance and operations of the new plant. The plant design is highly modularized to shorten field construction time, which minimizes the transition within the steel plant’s existing operations. Startup is planned for mid-2022.
More and more manufacturing companies in a variety of industries are realizing that Pipeline AirTM is a great way to outsource compressed air needs as a utility, save money, preserve capital, and focus on their core business. UCA is delighted to deliver Pipeline Air TM to a leader in the steel industry.
