As already anticipated by an article of June 2010 published on this web site, Sea Marconi, in collaboration with the University of Turin1 (Dept. of Analytical Chemistry), University of Missouri (“Rolla”)2 and the Serbian research Institute “NIKOLA TESLA”3, is engaged in a research project promoted by the Ministry of Economic Development favouring the integration between Universities and enterprises at international level. The studies, startedRead more

Following an invitation by institutional authorities and local Utilities, from 29th March through 1st April 2011, Vander Tumiatti was in the Philippines as an expert in the management of electrical equipment with insulating oils. The archipelago of the Philippines includes over 7,000 islands; the economy has a considerable expansion and for this reason, policies for energy efficiency are required toRead more

On 23rd March 2011, at its headquarters in Collegno (Turin), Sea Marconi welcomed a delegation coming from the Republic of Azerbaijan. The working group came to Italy with the objective of deepening the solutions provided by Sea Marconi for the management of the PCBs problem in their Country. Under an economic point of view, Azerbaijan can count on flourishing agriculture andRead more

Sea Marconi, at an important European chemical industry, is performing an extremely delicate specialised activity: the decontamination of five power transformers originally filled with Askarel (a mixture of 60% of PCBs and 40% of chlorobenzene as solvent). The activity is scheduled in two phases: 1. draining the contaminated fluid and the subsequent filling with oil with a special formulation (in this instanceRead more

Monday 7th and Tuesday 8th February 2011, at the Sea Marconi Headquarters in Collegno (Turin) a meeting was held with a Japanese delegation interested to the Sea Marconi’s solutions for the management of transformers contaminated by PCBs in Japan. At the meeting participated Mr Toshihiko Takeo, general manager of JEMA, association of Japanese manufacturers in the electrical area, Mr YoRead more

The topic of decontamination from PCBs is very much felt by the French Ministry of the Environment. In effect, last December, the minister Kosciusko-Morizet reminded that in all Europe, Directive EC no. 96/59 imposed to decontaminate or dispose of within 31stDecember 2010 all the equipment with PCBs exceeding 500 ppm (mg/kg). After this communication, an investigative campaign followed to verifyRead more

A Since 1999 Sea Marconi has developed, synthesised and patented new materials designated as “Functionalised nanosponges” which, having a carrier function, are able to absorb, hold and release in a controlled manner, organic molecules or metallic iones, providing surprising application properties. Nanosponges are polymers, natural derivates from the amid based on cyclodextrins, formulated through special chemical reactions of reticulation withRead more

The last 2010 invention by Sea Marconi refers to a modular plant for the integrated conversion of carbonaceous matrices with the scope of obtaining and/or valorising derivative products, “energetic or bioenergetic vectors”, “energy or bioenergy” with low environmental impact or CO2 neutral – CO2 n or CO2 negative – CO2 N and/or “Zero emissions – ZE”. This invention, for which Sea Marconi has applied for an international patent, is mainly basedRead more

After the accreditation of the test of PCBs in February 2009, Sea Marconi has obtained last November 2010 from ACCREDIA a brilliant confirmation, by extending the accreditation to the tests of dissolved gases (DGA*, dissolved water and furanic compounds)* (see here below the detail of the accredited tests). Created form the combination of SINAL and SINCERT, ACCREDIA is the only organism authorised by the Italian State to performRead more

A really extraordinary edition of the My Transfo (Turin, 23rd and 24th November) has taken place: starting from the format of the event, through the location with the prestigious intervention of the Chancellor of the Polytechnic, and the technical-scientific level of the topics being considered. However, the point that I would like to emphasise is the number of participations. We had theRead more
