GENERALITAT OF CATALONIA AWARD IN RECOGNITION OF A SINGULAR ACTIVITY IN FAVOR OF THE ENVIRONMENT
Potentially, galvanic industries can be very polluting, due to their ability to generate waste that contains a significant concentration of heavy metals.
The decisive factor that prompted the company to carry out this project in favor of the environment was the desire to reduce the amount of waste that was generated, through vacuum purification treatments that made zero wastewater discharge possible.
UNIPEDE AWARD IN RECOGNITION OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN THE PRODUCTION PROCESS
Elhco implemented a pioneering waste treatment system that made possible to concentrate the maximum amount of liquid waste to obtain a solid sludge through a circuit of vacuum evaporators. At the same time, very good quality distilled water is obtained that is reused for industrial processes.
With this system, it is possible to reduce water costs, sanitation fee, amount of reagents, wastewater discharges and 50% of the sludge generated that goes to landfill.
INTERNATIONAL ELA AWARD
Award from the International Union of Producers and Distributors of Electrical Energy (UNIPEDE, Paris), an association founded in 1925 and present in 57 countries, of which 37 are European.
