Development Type: 

ProposalDescription: 

Richbay intends to install a chemical filling plant with a capacity of more than 500m3 storage of dangerous goods that will be situated on approximately 7.5 ha. It is intended that the proposed plant will be commissioned in three phases. -Phase 1: Filling Plant -Phase 2: Acid Regeneration Plant -Phase 3: Solvent Filling Plant

Expanded_Motivation: 

Richbay has existing chemical filling plants in South Africa, however in order to be closer to the northern market in South Africa a filling plant is required in Gauteng. The site in Gauteng is centrally located and in close proximity to the major routes in the Province. Ferric Chloride is produced in a wide range of applications in the industrial sector including surface water clarification, heavy metal precipitation, industrial effluent treatment and phosphate precipitation in sewage treatment. Currently there is only one company in the country that produces and supplies Ferric Chloride to South Africa and other neighbouring countries. This serves as a motivation for Richbay to increase the supply of the product, particularly to the neighbouring countries located further north of the country. The unemployment rate in the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality is reported to be 29.72%, which is higher than that of Gauteng and South Africa (25.28%). The development will slightly reduce the unemployment rate, by creating several job opportunities. The increased production of Ferric Chloride in the country will also make a slight contribution to the country’s chemical manufacturing industry, and subsequently contribute to the country’s GDP.
