Everyone profits from recovery
|
There are considerable benefits from recovering energy and other
resources consumed in production for both environment and
economy. Recovery is the way to stability and cost efficiency in
production.
Vargön Alloys with its vast experience is one
of the leaders in the field when it comes to recovery from
production. Since 1957 we have continued to develop and
implement our own effective systems for energy recovery. Energy
corresponding to more than half of the electrical energy input
is recovered.
The recovered energy is used by the
district heating plant of Vänersborg to heat homes and other
buildings with our hot water.

Recovery capacity |
Vargön Alloys began recovering energy and cleaning flue-gases at
a very early stage. The first energy recovery system went into
operation in 1957 and flue-gas cleaning systems were installed
as early as 1970. |
