We are particularly proud to be able to recount another positive update in the “PCBs free Program for Japan” project: the arrival of the first order for the development of a system (DMU) for the dehalogenation of oils and transformers contaminated by PCBs.
To completely understand the extraordinary nature of this news, we need to take a look at the previous “episodes” (see link at bottom of page).
Very briefly. Sea Marconi welcomed the challenge posed by the public and private Japanese sector: first of all, the laboratory detection of infinitesimal contaminations of PCBs in oil (never before detected), subsequently pushing Sea Marconi technology to the max, with the objective of decontaminating oil up to a rate of PCB < 0.5 mg/kg. Today we are proud to say that we have reached both objectives. Our laboratory has been confirmed as an extraordinary international point of reference, and the PCB decontamination technology by Sea Marconi, CDP Process + DMU, has been officially validated by Japanese authorities.
To satisfy the demands of this client, Sea Marconi performed an enormous job, redesigning itsdecontamination units (DMU), until finally defining an entirely new technological concept.
Basically this means lower weight and smaller dimensions, optimised fluid schemes, improved performance, optimised use of materials, which translates into improved performance, reduced impact of logistics, faster treatments and therefore an undeniable advantage for the end user. The development of the first system for Japan is without a doubt an extraordinary milestone, but we know it is just the beginning of a difficult path, which will nonetheless provide us with enormous satisfaction.
