Tenova uses cutting edge technology to ensure that environmental protection and compliance with legislation are integrated into the design of each smelting plant. Silicon metal furnaces utilise bag filters, where Tenova includes the clean air emissions quality as a process guarantee.

Tenova’s tapping fume extraction system is located above each taphole to capture the fumes released during the tapping process. The extraction system is connected to a dedicated fugitive air cleaning bag filter, which cleans the fumes prior to exhausting to the atmosphere. Our fume extraction systems ensure that environmental standards are met and give peace of mind to our clients. 

Engineering Modelling and Investigations, including FEA and CFD Modelling are used to make sure the best possible design is delivered for each project, ensuring adherence to the best possible environmental standards.
