The three-year program of "Metafrax", aimed at resolving ecological issues, foresees more than five billion rubles of investment. During the construction of the Ammonia-Urea-Melamine (AUM) complex in Gubakha, "Metafrax Chemicals" is erecting the largest carbon dioxide recovery plant in Russia. Putting this unit into operation will eliminate the daily release of 1120 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The CO2 emissions from production facilities will be reduced by more than half, which will be a significant contribution of the company to the control of the greenhouse effect.
