Background
DENAIR partnered with one of Uzbekistan’s top three gold mining companies, a century-old enterprise recognized for its large-scale operations and rigorous production standards. The customer required a reliable high-pressure air supply to support deep-level mining processes. This project centered on a containerized compressor system providing 24 m³/min airflow, with an inlet pressure of 25 bar and a discharge pressure of 60 bar.

Challenge
The mining site had long relied on aging Soviet-era diesel-driven boosters that had reached the end of their service life. Frequent breakdowns disrupted production, increased operational risk, and raised maintenance costs. Additionally, the mining area faced limited electricity availability, making it difficult to replace the old equipment with traditional electrically driven solutions. The customer needed a modern, robust, and energy-efficient alternative capable of delivering stable high pressure under challenging conditions.

Solution
DENAIR supplied a containerized high-pressure compressor engineered to operate reliably in remote and power-constrained mining environments. The container design provided a fully integrated system with efficient layout, simplified installation, and strong environmental protection.
The new solution delivered stable 25→60 bar boosting capability, enabling seamless integration into existing mining processes. Its optimized power configuration ensured dependable performance even with restricted power supply.
After the initial delivery, the customer quickly recognized the equipment’s operational stability and cost advantages. As a result, they expanded their usage and now operate five units of the same model across multiple mining locations.

Conclusion
This Uzbekistan project highlights DENAIR’s ability to replace outdated high-pressure systems with modern, containerized compressor solutions that enhance reliability, improve maintenance efficiency, and reduce production interruptions. The successful adoption of five units reinforces DENAIR’s position as a trusted long-term partner in the gold mining industry.
