Baranavichy meat processing plant

• Baranavichy meat processing plant

The day after the arrival of the Slonim I went to one of the main objects, pre-planned in Baranavichy.

Because of the rapid expansion of the city in the 1980s, the Baranavichy meat-packing plant has appeared almost in the very center. To derive from the urban area of the slaughterhouse complex, as well as to expand production in 1989 at Slonim highway began large-scale construction of new buildings for the enterprise.

It was purchased new equipment at the time, Baranavichy students sent to study in Moscow University, meat and dairy products. With the dissolution of the USSR construction finished by 40% was frozen object. The plant, which lost an opportunity to expand in 2007, Berezovsky became a branch plant. On completion of the huge buildings can now be no question.

The first thing that meets the territory - administrative building. It may be of interest unless germodveri in the shelter beneath it, the rest of the building is completely empty, though fully built.

Not far away stands a concrete frame with a five-story building height. Perhaps this should have been the evaporation plant with roof fans.

In the land of the sleepers were ways for the construction crane. Rails, like himself, the crane has long been stolen ...

In a concrete solution instead of a bath - algae.

For the past twenty years the area is overgrown with trees, and even within departments.

There was supposed to open up the full production cycle of meat-packing plant. This site was designed for the reception of live animals prepared for slaughter.

Paddock for lairage - in fact, a great hall, where they spent time cows and / or pigs before slaughter. Here, special grooves in which the feces were removed, rinsed off with water were provided in the floor.

After the slaughter in a separate building (about it later) carcass fell into a two-storey shop in a central location of the plant. From the side, this part of the building is decorated with projections inside which the ladder.

Here is the first tier of the shop. Paul filled with a thick layer of sand, completely coated dog tracks. Although the territory I met nobody, somewhere is likely to have a guard that protects the plant from scrap fans and is rarely detours.

Ground floor - technical. There is unlikely to show up any equipment.

But I found the remains of the fan in a small back room.

Since the lower tier could not find anything interesting, I had to find a way to the top in one of the protrusions.

In the floor cutting plant intentionally left gaps for the supply of carcasses.

There is also tight with the equipment, and in fact it should have been here a lot.

According to a special guide moving carcasses. A workshop with them flayed and removed unnecessary parts such as the head, limbs and internal organs.

From the shop windows offer a beautiful view of the territory of the enterprise. It can be seen one-story engineering building, half closed with locks and bars. Hangar on the right in the photo is quite heavily used.

View of the administrative building.

The last and most ambitious of the line interconnected halls - refrigerator. On its lower tier there is nothing interesting, except that a number of vessels in the annexe.

The second floor is much more interesting.

The huge hall, which had already butchered carcasses were to fall into the refrigerator of the processing workshop. Under the ceiling are clearly visible track to deliver them.

In the meat processing carcasses are hung on these hooks here and move away from the slaughter of the most subsurface passage through a butcher shop in the refrigerator.

The purpose of these systems remains a mystery to me. In all likelihood, mascara, moving past them, we had to pass some kind of pre-treatment.

Premises cooling chambers are separated from the external walls of the narrow pipeline corridor.

The incredible number of pipes under a ceiling refrigeration plant.

Carcasses were to fall into one of two transport corridors, which leave the freezer door. It is worth paying attention to the insulating foam core, scored in the walls of the chamber.

If there are rails, must be clockwise. Here is one of them designed to send the carcasses in the freezer.

arrow view closer. The apparatus should have to take the weight of the carcasses and transfer the suspension hook from one rail to another.

In the freezer for carcasses provided a number of parallel rails.

For the distribution of carcasses of these tracks has been set, of course, a number of arrows. In this case, the hook can be transferred from an arrow to arrow with a special chain, it is visible in the upper right corner of the image.

If you shoot without the flash, the numerous technological holes in the walls of the chamber effect the starry sky.

can also detect elements of radiators intended for collecting heat in the cold store.

Under the ceiling, too, something had set.

Finally, the finished carcasses have been transported from the factory, bypassing the long and wide loading ramp. Here during the construction even managed to take the driveway.

processing plant type with a loading ramp. Right - pre-slaughter pen, left - refrigerator.

A little aside hladostantsiya (one wall) and cooling tower with her.

The building stands slaughter. Clearly, this is a dirty business. Overground corridor it had to be connected to the recycling shop, but the transition has not had time to build. But yet set plastic container multistage scrubber designed to clean the air.

Domestic slaughter.

Finally, own boiler plant is located on a separate territory. She was in the greatest stage of readiness. Only the pipe did not have time to finish, leaving the top of the tiny valve to deliver bricks and mortar.
