Environmental standards focused the Assembly of the ATEG

on February 14, 2003

Environmental standards seized the papers of the twenty-eighth Assembly General of the Association technique Spanish of electroplating, ATEG, which took place on 6 February. This partnership integrates most of galvanizing plants in Spain hot.

During the Assembly dealt with on the emission of dioxins and furans, the risks of zinc, the environmental rating e+5 and European regulation EMAS applied to small and medium-sized companies, as well as the State Register of sources and pollutants emissions (EPER). Also covered aspects purely technical and methodology of work, specifically the REFA methodology.

ATEG is an organization of a technical nature and non-profit that aims to promote the industrial related technique with hot galvanising processes and develop the applications of this procedure for the protection of the iron and steel against corrosion, with the ultimate aim of contributing to the reduction of the high economic losses that occur in our country because of metal corrosion.
