SNC- LAVALIN wins EPCM Contract for Vale's Major Clean AER project

SNC-Lavalin (TSX: SNC) will provide project management, engineering, procurement and construction management (EPCM) services for Vale’s $2-billion Clean AER (Atmospheric Emissions Reduction) Project in Sudbury, Ontario.

Working closely with Vale and local contractors, SNC-Lavalin will retrofit and modernize Vale’s nickel smelter complex to reduce its current sulphur dioxide emissions levels by 70%, and its dust and metal emissions by up to 40% over current levels. Work will be carried out while the complex continues its regular operations with scheduled plant shut-downs.

“Vale is a repeat and long-standing client and we’re delighted they chose to retain us for the implementation phase of this major strategic environmental program,” said Feroz Ashraf, Executive Vice-President, SNC-Lavalin Group Inc. “We’ll be using the most appropriate and available commercial technology in our designs, and taking necessary considerations to reduce emissions over the life cycle of the project.”
