Description

Project description: Guenther manufactures thermoelectric sensors used in industrial furnaces. The main goal of the project supported by GII is to change the production technology by implementation of thermo-sensors which are reducing the use of dangerous materials and emission of air pollutants. The thermo-sensor's measurement precision is compatible with the class of precision needed by the customer. The accurate temperature measurement becomes necessary due to the lifespan of the devices, the quality of final products, and minimization of malfunctions as well as reduction of energy loss in devices controlled by thermo-sensors. Project objectives: • "Green" thermo-sensor with guaranteed precision • Increasing the eco-friendliness level of the "green" thermo-sensors production process Outcome indicators: • Number of environmental technologies successfully applied for use in new areas - 3 • Green jobs created – 3 new green jobs • Reduction in CO2 emissions – 78 392 tones/ year

Summary of project results

The project was aimed at implementation of a new technology for the production of thermo-sensors, with the purpose to improve the precision of measurements and eliminate hazardous substances in the production process. The development of an innovative GreenTECH technology enabled the company to introduce a new more precise standard of measurements and by that reduce final customers’ energy consumption. Those new thermo-sensors reduce the use of dangerous materials and emission of air pollutants. The implementation of new technology will effect on reduction of SO2 (141,2 Mg/year), NOx (92,5 Mg/year) and dust (7,0 Mg/year). The implementation of thermo-sensors will also lead to reduction od CO2 emission thanks to reduced energy consumption by end users.
