As part of a retrofit project, Elco AG has modernised their paper waste disposal plant. Thanks to four new fans in negative pressure operation, energy consumption has been reduced by 120 kilowatts. In production this means clear savings in operating costs.
Since the beginning of this year, Elco AG (Brugg), has been working with disposal technology which has, in large part, been modernised. The remodelling consisted of the exchange of an old for a modern control management with automatic switch-off. In addition, the old fans and cutters, as well as parts of the ducting system from a third-party supplier were replaced with state-of-the-art technology. This retrofit project was planned and carried out by Hunkeler Systeme AG.
