Modern society development level depends, first of all, on the level and state of science. State Institute for Designing Enterprises of Coke Oven and By-product Industry “Giprokoks”, founded in Kharkiv in 1929, is an integral part of the Ukrainian scientific potential. The goal of the Institute was to create its own engineering school. For a short period of time new design agency, which did not have enough specialists and experience, created the own school for engineering of workshops and complexes of coke oven and by-product enterprises.

Today “Giprokoks” is the only leading design agency in Ukraine and CIS countries in the coke oven and by-product industry and is a world-famous engineering company, which carries out a comprehensive elaboration of scientific and technical documentation, evaluation of scientific and technical developments and applied research at the stage of their practical application, science and technical programs, projects and forecasts in the coke oven and by-product industry.

The whole coke oven and by-product industry of Ukraine and ex-USSR and several foreign countries, including Algeria, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Hungary, Egypt, India, China, Nigeria, Pakistan, Poland, Romania, Turkey, Finland, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Iran, including coke oven batteries Nos.1,2 and 3 complex facilities of Isfahan Steel Plant in Iran has been built to the design documentation of the Institute. In total 60 coke oven and by-product plants have been built. 20 Coke Dry Cooling Plants are operating in CIS countries, and 16 Coke Dry Cooling Plants have been built in India, China, Turkey, Germany, Finland, Hungary, Japan and other countries. The Institute is a holder of 30% of tracings of coke oven batteries in the world.

The personnel policy of the Institute is based on the creation of favourable conditions for professional development of the staff. The high-skilled staff is the main intellectual potential of the Institute. With a great pleasure “Giprokoks” recalls the names of Ex-Directors of the Institute - I.G. Molodtsov, M. N. Tsarev, A. N. Silka, S. K. Uspenskiy. Since 1994 the Director of the Institute is Viktor Ivanovych Rudyka, who has worked for many years at “Giprokoks”. A number of scale projects were implemented under his supervision, foreign economic activity of the Institute is carried out at a new high-quality level. The institute has always kept up with the science and technical progress and has educated a great number of high-skilled specialists in the field of coke oven and by-product industry and allied sector. The Institute staff amounts to more than 500 persons, among them – high-skilled technology experts and designers, civil engineers and architects, electrical and electronic engineers, automation experts, economists, water supply and service pipelines experts, general layout designers, service staff. Joint work with common goals and tasks enables the personnel of the Institute to keep their integrity and to hold the Institute at front of the engineering services market.

Giprokoks possess licences for design and survey work in Ukraine and Russia. The elaborations of “GIPROKOKS” meet the world market requirements and International standards, they have been covered by copyrights and patents; more than 50 licences and know-how have been taken up by the companies of Germany, Japan, Italy, England, Brazil, China, Poland, Turkey, Finland and other countries.

The basic directions of Institute activities comprise the comprehensive elaboration of the design documentation for construction, reconstruction, expansion and technological re-equipment of coke oven and by-product enterprises under operation in Ukraine, Russia and other foreign countries; engineering, scientific and research work, design and experimental work.

The Institute is able to carry out at high level the technical and economic substantiation, technical and economic evaluation, basic and detail engineering (explanatory notes, drawings, etc.) for all the coke oven and by-product enterprises of Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan and other foreign countries.

The Quality Assurance Model for engineering, production, erection and maintenance, which was worked out pursuant to the requirements of ISO 9001 has been implemented in the Institute in 1998. In 2001 the Quality Management System was certified by UkrSEPRO pursuant to DSTU ISO 9001-2001 and approved by the international body “Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance”. Recertification of the system was held in 2004. Giprokoks is the only institute among the scientific and research institutes of Ukraine which possesses the quality certificate of the international body “Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance”

Giprokoks possess all new principles and approaches to coke making facilities in the world. The Institute always participates in world congresses, symposiums and conferences on the issues of coke and iron production.

There are several foundations for future success of the Institute: the leading and young staff; upgraded material and technical basis with 400 modern computers, creation of the efficient system of automation of labour; electronic documents circulation.

The Institute is provided in full with orders for elaboration of scientific and technical documentation, and faces the future with confidence.
