In der folgenden Tabelle werden die Verbrauchs- und Emissionswerte von ENKA mit den Bandbreiten, die im Polymer BREF für Viskose-Filamentgarne mit Batch Washing angegeben sind, verglichen. ENKA liegt mit ihren Werten für alle Parameter innerhalb der Bandbreiten im Polymer BREF oder sogar besser - mit der Ausnahme zweier Parameter, die unten näher erläutert sind.

Figures for filament production with batch washing. ² In order to achieve highest possible yarn evenness, higher amounts of Zinc are required in the process. Due to state of the art waste water treatment, Zinc emissions to water are well below the range in the Polymer BREF. Additionally, a Zinc recovery unit for effluent sludge is in place. ³ ENKA applies a unique and proprietary washing technology which focuses on highest purity, whiteness and cleanliness of its yarns. This allows our customers to use our yarn without prewashing and therefore reduces downstream impacts on water consumption and emissions.
