PRAGUE – Gutsche, which was acquired by Lydall for $32 million at the start of 2017, is to supply 25,000 filter bags to ČEZ AS, an integrated electricity conglomerate which is the largest utility in the Czech Republic.
ČEZ continues to raise the environmental standards of its coal-fired power plants and is currently undertaking a project to reduce dust emissions at a coal-fired power plant in Tušimice over the next two years.
At four 200MW Tušimice units, dedusting will be carried out by fabric filters with a total flue gas volume of approximately 5.64 million m3 per hour.
Lydall-Gutsche will supply its microvel PL filter elements for the project. The company has advanced needlefelt nonwoven operations in Germany and China.
