Water Mist at Codelco Ventanas Plant in Chile

Meeting eco-friendly sustainability targets

Codelco Ventanas (DVEN), being a copper smelter and refinery plant in Chile, attaches great attention to employees and environmental safety as business continuity. In addition to the already existing fire protection systems in high-risk areas, all areas with hydraulic and lubrication systems, which represent fire risks with high heat release and smoke generation due to the utilized mineral oils, will now be equipped with FOGTEC high-pressure water mist systems by our local partner RMC Engineering Solutions.
