Hydrogen Peroxide Plant, Giza

President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi opened Medical and Industrial Gas Plant and Hydrogen Peroxide Plant with 50% concentration, at the headquarters of the Nasr Company for Intermediate Chemicals in Abu Rawash. The plant contributes to covering the local market’s needs for medical oxygen that is necessary for hospitals and medical centers and supports many productive projects. It also has industrial uses in the companies of petroleum products, paper and textiles, and a number of food and pharmaceutical industries. These projects have been implemented in cooperation with many civil companies.

The hydrogen peroxide plant, the first of its kind in Egypt, contributes to many industries. Its products are used in the manufacture of paper and textiles and many of the pharmaceutical and petroleum products industries. The plant also aims to localize the hydrogen peroxide industry in the Arab Republic of Egypt and to make use of hydrogen gas produced by the chlorine industry in the company's factories to produce 23,000 tons per year of hydrogen peroxide. This industry is also important as it will help make the local market fully self-sufficient so there will be no need to import such products; even more, the surplus could be exported.

Almost twenty civil companies were involved in the supplying, construction, manufacturing of local equipment, installations and operations, and some Egyptian companies working in the textile industry were supplied with the new product of hydrogen peroxide.

In the field of environmental safety and in accordance with the system of preserving the environmental safety at the main headquarters to prevent any harmful emissions from factories and to comply with environmental requirements according to international standards, the company has undertaken many additional environmental measures in favor of manufacturers. These measures are represented in supplying the tower of the Medical and Industrial Gases Factory with a silencer to reduce the noise rate, establishing a unit for separating and treating the solvents in the hydrogen peroxide plant, establishing an additional unit for treating the industrial wastes of the manufacturers and recycling the water used in industrial process and irrigating green spaces and devoting attention to increasing green spaces.
