scenes negotiating and compiling of reports and tender documents,
Combustion Technology and their BEE partner, TR_Mechanicals have been
awarded the contract to upgrade the boiler system at the Johannesburg
Hospital in Gauteng to fire on Natural Gas.
The project which

past overdue for replacement. Read

Saving Energy – A Priority |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We do not have to say too
much about the energy crisis we are experiencing at the moment but while
we think that our individual contribution counts nothing in the big
scheme of things, we are wrong. The average household has up to 12
gadgets left on standby or charging at any one time. That’s a lot of
wasted energy! Unplug your chargers when not in use and switch off the
lights when you leave the room. |

Superior Service for
Client Vasco Cheese |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mr Vasco of Vasco Cheese
in Cape Town needed to replace his existing cast iron boiler towards the
end of 2007. He specified the boiler that he required but his supplier
did not deliver the correct one. He then contacted Combustion Technology
late one afternoon requesting urgent assistance.
Fortunately we had a boiler in stock that could be used and our team
were on site within a few hours and worked through the night to ensure
that his downtime in the factory was kept to a minimum.
Yet another story on how Combustion Technology went the extra mile for
their client! |

Riello Italy Phases Out
Boilers |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Starting in January 2008
Riello Italy has started to phase out the 2RCT Cast Iron Pressure Jet
Boilers. These boilers have been in production for over 20 years and
will now be replaced by the new and highly improved Tregi N and NK
Series of Boilers.
The old 2RCT boilers had no thermoregulators and along with having to be
assembled on site, they were difficult to maintain.
The new Tregi Series boast new aesthetics along with a brand new state
of the art control panel. Maintenance is also far easier with a hinged
door for easy access. Read more about the available models on our
website

Climate Change Resolution
by Government |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ANC Conference is
Polokwane during December created huge media coverage but the resolution
on climate change that was passed during the conference did not and is a
critical milestone for the country.
The Government has sent out a strong signal to the world that it is
committed to climate change. To meet the targets South Africa will have
to introduce energy efficient improvements in industry, and households
and set fuel efficiency standards. They will also need to diversify
energy sources through nuclear energy and renewable sources especially
solar power. This is especially relevant one month later with the Eskom
fiasco!
Marthinus Van Schalkwyk said that although certain processes should
still be followed to convert policy resolutions into government policy,
the climate change resolution by the governing party's conference was "a
strong signal to the world and a commendable step forward."
