The Laboratory for Industrial Energy and Environmental Protection has equipment for measuring the efficiency of energy devices and for determining emissions through flue gases from energy and industrial plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These measurements are a legal obligation of all owners of power plants and there is a possibility of working with the economy and the market, in order to carry out these measurements as well as control measurements for the needs of the customer.<br> It will be possible to perform measurements to determine the emissions of harmful substances from pollution sources that can be further used as input data for modeling the operation of the device in real operating conditions or dispersion of pollutants in the atmosphere, and various statistical indicators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The laboratory conducts warranty tests of the equipment in order to check the efficiency and emission of flue gases declared by the manufacturers. In collaboration with equipment manufacturers, it is possible to conduct research to improve the efficiency of the device and reduce emissions of harmful substances into the air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Laboratory equipment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<table> <colgroup> <col\/> <col\/> <col\/> <\/colgroup> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p>No.<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>Name<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>Puropuse &#8211; scope<\/p> <\/td> <\/tr> <tr> <td> <p> <\/p> <\/td> <td> <p> <\/p> <\/td> <td> <p> <\/p> <\/td> <\/tr> <tr> <td> <p>1<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>Device for isokinetic sampling of solids content in gases &#8211; SICK SCH-501<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>determination of solids concentration in waste gas<\/p> <\/td> <\/tr> <tr> <td> <p>2<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>Analytic weighing scale \u2013 OHAUS<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>Precise weight measurment <\/p> <\/td> <\/tr> <tr> <td> <p>3<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>Flue gas analyser TESTO 350-XL<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>Flue gas analysis<\/p> <\/td> <\/tr> <tr> <td> <p>4<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>Desicator<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>Sample drying <\/p> <\/td> <\/tr> <tr> <td> <p>5<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p>Drying furnace<\/p> <\/td> <td> <p> <\/p> <\/td> <\/tr> <\/tbody> <\/table>\n\n\n\n<p><br> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/media\/filer_public_thumbnails\/filer_public\/36\/f7\/36f7a3d2-3a0c-48e5-b1fc-a294267ae25a\/slika1.png__262x189_q92_crop_subsampling-2_upscale.png\" alt=\"slika1.png\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/media\/filer_public_thumbnails\/filer_public\/f8\/65\/f8658dc2-3ca7-471b-82b9-2907fea3a7bc\/slika2.png__566x364_q92_crop_subsampling-2_upscale.png\" alt=\"slika2.png\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/media\/filer_public_thumbnails\/filer_public\/01\/20\/01205d3f-5589-4bcf-b487-32c2fdb165c2\/slika0.jpg__580x1028_q92_crop_subsampling-2_upscale.jpg\" alt=\"slika0.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This equipment is used for research purposes as part of scientific research projects.
