Description

Expert opinion

In the context of the implementation of regulatory requirements and further measures, the weyer group provides expert opinions and expert bases in water protection. This includes, for example, the classification and allocation of AwSV systems, assessment of safety precautions or proof of the resistance and tightness of restraint systems.

Classification of substances hazardous to water and hazard levels

On the basis of the AwSV we determine the water hazard class (WGK) of mixtures from the information on individual substances. With the help of the water hazard class and the plant demarcation we can determine the hazard levels according to § 39 AwSV. In addition, we carry out demarcations of water-polluting substances from media of other legal areas, in particular waste water.

Water protection and maintenance concepts

Together we develop, with reference to your operational processes, water protection and maintenance concepts with the central aspects:

• Avoidance of leaks and overfilling
• Detection and reporting of leaks
• Retention of substances hazardous to water and fire-fighting water.

Furthermore, we accompany the implementation of the concepts with our sound engineering know-how.

Plant refurbishment and retrofitting

The weyer gruppe also creates practical renovation and retrofitting concepts with special consideration of cost-efficient solutions. In this context

• we determine the need for action,
• draw up catalogues of measures with urgency assessment,
• carry out cost estimates and
• provide assistance in the selection of suppliers and technical systems.

Operational documentation

Taking into account the requirements of legal and technical regulations, we prepare AwSV plant documentation, AwSV operating instructions and leaflets, alarm, monitoring and maintenance plans, practice checklists as well as customer-specific building regulations and guidelines for water protection.

On-site appointments

On-site appointments are difficult to implement in the current situation. Despite the possibility of video inspections, a plant inspection without an on-site appointment is always difficult and certainly only useful in individual cases. We will continue – under certain conditions – to visit your facility even in the current situation. Please refer to our internal guidelines as to which requirements must be met for such an inspection. Here you will find the corresponding concept.
