Energy System Conversion for Natural Gas Use at Rotem Amfert Negev
KH Engineering led the management and supervision of the energy system conversion at the Rotem Amfert Negev facilities, adapting the systems to natural gas use—a significant step toward improving industrial processes and reducing pollutant emissions.
The project included the design and installation of natural gas supply systems for the plant furnaces (Nos. 42, 50, and 70), along with the adaptation of civil infrastructure for gas transportation, the establishment of supporting systems, fuel tank installations, and advanced feeding systems. Additionally, gas pressure reduction systems were installed, along with electrical feeding systems and new equipment infrastructure.
Project Scope:
✅ Project Management – Design and oversight of the conversion phases.
✅ Construction Supervision – Quality control, safety monitoring, and timeline adherence.
✅ Pipe Rack Construction – Building pathways for natural gas pipelines and transport systems.
✅ Natural Gas Pipeline Installation – Including underground pipelines and connections to the facilities.
✅ Furnace Conversion and New Burner Installation – Ensuring a full transition to natural gas operation.
Through this project, Rotem Amfert Negev is upgrading its energy systems, improving production efficiency, and reducing reliance on polluting fuels, as part of its shift to clean and sustainable energy.
