Vard Tulcea SA, Romania - Ventilation and Filtration

Vard Tulcea SA, a shipyard specializing in hull construction and a member of the Fincantieri Group, collaborated with Minex Group to implement an advanced ventilation and emissions filtration solution.

Delivered equipment:

• Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO) system for treating volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions generated by the shipyard’s automated blasting and painting installation for plates and profiles.

Achieved benefits:

• Process efficiency: The RTO system effectively captures and treats VOC emissions, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and improving air quality within the shipyard.
• Increased productivity: The integration of the RTO system into the shipyard’s automated workflow minimized downtime and optimized the blasting and painting processes.
• Energy efficiency: The RTO system recovers a significant portion of the thermal energy used in the oxidation process, reducing energy consumption and operational costs.
• Improved working conditions: The implemented solution minimizes worker exposure to harmful emissions, creating a safer and more comfortable work environment.
• Environmental protection: The installation significantly reduces pollution by capturing and neutralizing VOC emissions, contributing to the preservation of environmental quality.

With the implementation of this solution, Vard Tulcea SA reinforced its commitment to sustainability and compliance with the highest environmental standards in the shipbuilding industry.
