Environmental Monitoring Concept for Pulp, Paper and Mining Sector

Programme 2007 - 2013 Karelia ENPI CBC

Date of latest update: 2021-04-06

Description

Description (EN): The objective of the project is to create a novel environmental monitoring concept for heavy industry in order to reduce water pollution in Finland and Karelia.

Achievements (EN):

EnMonCon concept helps industrial actors to reduce environmental impacts due to increaded awareness of their real emissions to the watercourses - so the on line monitoring helps now them to adjust the process and thus to decrease pollution. The exchange of best practices on environmental engineer sector regarding on line monitoring has taken place. The general awareness among the Project partners has increased due to the Project and the whole concept EnMonCon is a new business concept not existign before. The recycling possibilities and circulation of the water is now a bit easier, when the water quality is known among the Project partners - in order you can recycle, you need first to know the water matrix very detailly. The data for reducing amount of all chemicals is now available in Sotkamo Silver and in Segezha due to the pilot stations - the on line monitoring really gives a huge range of possibilities to reduce environmental pollution and to save raw materials, chemicals and energy at the same time. The concept itself is very novel and cost-effective. The monitoring tools (=stations) were verified by University of Oulu in Sotkamo Silver's mine and they were estimated to be applicable, when the maintenance of the station is done in a proper way. When the water quality is known all the time and the operator can adjust the production process as well as the cleaning process based on on line monitoring, the pollution to the nature is decreased. The development of EnMonCon concept will be continued, the forecast is, that the concept will be in active use in Finland and in Russia in the nearest future.

Expected Results (EN):

To design environmental monitoring concept, which is suitable to be used for industrial plants to control environmental load. When the load is known well enough, it is possible to decrease the pollution to watercourses by the help of the concept by improving recycling and decreasing use of water. The concept will be created by many actors and the concept opens new business possibilities over the border.
