Project:
„Reducing the energy intensity of the production process at KOVOLIT, a.s. - operation of the foundry"
The subject of the project is the acquisition of two new dosing furnaces with a controlled metal dosing process to replace two existing crucible furnaces through which the final energy consumption and CO2 reduction in the KOVOLIT, a.s. production process will be reduced.
This project was co-funded by EU and MIT.

Support area: Industrial pollution abatement
Year of implementation: 2012-2014
Project:
“Industrial waste water treatment plant”
The project subject-matter was a significant modernization of the die cast process waste water treatment system based on purchasing new machinery and technological equipment and implementing new procedures for safe disposal of oily waste waters.
This project was aimed at the abatement of waste water pollution formed in the aluminium casting forgery operation.
By implementing the measures based on the vacuum distillation principle, a strong abatement of emissions in the waste water drain from the die cast process was achieved compared to the original state. This has resulted in cutting the emission load on the waste water treatment plant in Modřice which is the most important water-works element in the South Bohemia region. The project implementation was made in compliance with BAT (Best available technologies), i.e. the best available technologies within integrated prevention and control of overall pollution impact.
This project was co-funded from the resources of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the State Environmental Fund of the Czech Republic (SEF)
