Work Detail |
Veolia Energie CR used the planned summer shutdowns and switched to another key part of the Frydek-Mistek hot-water network, which supplies more than 18,000 households, as well as schools, hospitals, shopping centers,
" We have replaced the pipeline from our Frýdek-Místek Heat Plant along the Ostravice River to the city of almost 700 meters long with a new steel pipeline with modern thermal insulation, which will minimize heat losses in all operating and climatic conditions," said Tomáš Gron, Moravia and Silesia to Veolia Energie CR.
The pipeline has served the city since it was installed in 1974 and has not met the required parameters. The demanding overhaul of a 50 cm (2x DN 500) pipeline was started after the end of the heating season by the start of preparatory and dismantling work on June 1.
On the basis of careful project, legislative and organizational preparation, the pipeline was exchanged simultaneously in two above-ground sections.
Although there was a large amount of work, workers were able to meet only a ten-day break in heat supply in the second half of July.
"The high demands on the professionalism and skill of assembly platoons and the possibilities of the used techniques were laid especially at the beginning of the route when the pipeline from the heating plant was discharged into the cracked spaces of the hot-water channel under the floor of the so-called bioblock burning wood chips.
The technical and assembly nut was also the replacement of the vertical compensator, which spans the railway and railway siding road for adjacent production plants, without any exclusions from operation, with only short traffic regulation ", added Dalibor Šafran, Deputy Deputy Distributor and Service Division, Veolia Energie CR .
The aim of these highly costly repairs is to maintain stable, continuous, trouble-free heat supply to the customers and, in cooperation with Distep, the citys thermal comfort to all the citys inhabitants.
Veolia in the Moravian-Silesian Region operates one of the largest remote heat networks in Central Europe, measuring a total of 579 km and delivering thermal energy to approximately 175,000 households, industrial enterprises, hospitals, shopping centers, schools and other customers.
Last year, Veolia Energie CR invested more than one billion crowns in further greening and modernizing its power plants and divorces.
Almost half of the funds have been spent on projects that benefit the air and the environment at all.
Investments in central heat supply networks (CZT) last year amounted to CZK 188 million. On the CZT systems there were exchanges of pipelines of various dimensions, for example in the MS Region a part of the network at the entrance to Karviná and in Frýdek-Místek two sections of the 900 m long hot water pipeline.
