ENEA Wytwarzanie activities to reduce emissions of sulfur and nitrogen oxides:
- construction of flue gas denitrification system (FGD)
- modernization of pulverized coal burners
- modernization of the electrostatic precipitators of unit 3
- investment in retrofitting refrigerating units in air conditioning systems from refrigerating factor R22 to MO59-21. Thanks to the retrofitting, ENEA Wytwarzanie reduces the use of substances that deplete the ozone layer.
The Company's plans related with the expected industrial Emissions Directive (IED), concerns building the fourth desulphurization system and buildings for catalytic denitrification installation in all power units.
