The Cost of Winter Downtime: The Economics of Using Anti-caking Reagents

Every winter, coal terminals and thermal power plants face the same problem: frozen coal. Fines for railcar downtime (demurrage), the cost of heavy machinery to crush frozen lumps, and the risk of damage to the wagons — all of this turns «savings» on anti-caking reagents into significant losses.

Direct Benefits of Using Green Coal

The cost of treating a ton of coal with our reagent is competitive. Let’s compare this with the costs of dealing with the consequences of freezing:

  1. Demurrage Fees: One day of idle time for a railcar can cost thousands of rubles.

  2. Wagon Repair: Breaking up frozen coal often leads to damage to the bodies and unloading hatches.

  3. Safety Risks: The use of blasting or vibration poses a threat to personnel.

Green Coal is insurance for your logistics. By ensuring the flowability of cargo at temperatures down to -45°C, we guarantee that your wagons will return for loading on time.
