Swiss Contribution
OekoSolve Ltd. has been developing and producing electrostatic fine dust filters for over ten years. Dust filters in various performance classes have been continuously optimized over the years. Simple handling, operational reliability and easy maintenance are central elements of these electrostatic precipitators. Mr. Bernhard Egger, Project Manager, is a proven energy expert with many years of entrepreneurial experience.
Description
Air pollution in southern Chile’s cities – especially from fine dust particles caused by wood-fired systems used for heating and cooking – is a current problem. In cooperation with the city of Coyhaique, twin city with Bern, Switzerland, the “Agencia de Sostenibilidad Energética”, the University of Santiago, the developers of a fine dust filter type yet to be marketed, as well as other local partners, it is planned to use the proven OekoTube electrostatic filters from the Swiss company OekoSolve Ltd., mainly in a low-income neighbourhood. Based on the achieved results and experience gained, a concept for the filters’ market launch will be developed by the project partners and an accompanying group, with representatives from the private sector and various authorities.
