The project for the “environmental protection through the reduction and the elimination of dangerous substances such as PCBs in the oil of transformers”Read more

A few days ago the fabrication of a plant for Mongolia, finalised toward the dehalogenation of electrical equipment with insulating liquids contaminated by PCBs was completed. This plant is of a DMU (Decontamination Mobile Unit) type with extremely innovative configuration and technical solutions. It is a plant made of two modules designed and developed in a manner allowing the operators to work insideRead more

Sea Marconi has recently started in Sweden a campaign for the decontamination treatment from PCBs with the ambitious target of 2 mg/Kg (ppm w/w). The activity, which shall have a total duration of about four months, involves the complete dehalogenation of 8 transformers with 15 tons of oil each at an important industrial site in Central Sweden. The Customer has chosen the “on-load” treatmentRead more
