SVSU students proposed a large-scale modernization of the Magadan CHPP

123 teams advanced to the semifinals of the Autumn Cup of the Student League of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN". This year it was dedicated to the theme "Sustainable development", report The organizers are ANO "Russia – the land of opportunities".

–Teams from 76 universities, from 10 to 18 teams in each federal district, made it to the semifinals of the Autumn CASE-IN Cup," said the Deputy General Director of ANO Russia – the Land of Opportunities Anton Serikov. – This is a serious achievement, and the semi-finalists are already among the strongest youth engineering teams in their regions.

During the Autumn Cup, the contestants, on behalf of PJSC ALROSA, solved the case "Climate projects: development and implementation in permafrost conditions."

– Unlike the main season of the CASE-IN championship, students from all fields participate in the Autumn Cup together.

The semi-finalists were the teams that proposed the most effective measures to reduce, capture, recycle and store greenhouse gases. In their decisions, the students took into account the specifics of the geographical location of ALROSA's enterprises and Russian legislation.

The team of the Polytechnic Institute of Northeastern State University Tardigrades, in solving the engineering case of the Student League, proposed a large-scale modernization of the Magadan CHPP using hydrogen energy production technology. In their presentation, the students justified the proposed solutions with economic benefits and an impetus for the development of the region.

– This project carries with it a huge amount of knowledge and experience, which each of us receives both at the stage of solving the case and at the presentation of the work done before the jury. Criticism and dialogue especially strongly correct you during feedback from experts, as if you get the opportunity to look at your creation from the outside," the captain of the SVSU Tardigrades team, a future mining engineer, shared with the press service of the Polytechnic Institute. Sergey Plitschko.

As a result of the semi-final, the team took 5th place.
