Post-Congress
Plant Tours
Interesting technical plant tours will give attendees a unique first-hand
experience not only of diverse filtration and separation technologies
including advanced equipment, but also of spectacular historic and
ultramodern industrial production sites. The tours are planned after
the WFC10 Closing Ceremony on April 18, 2008. The
guided tours (in English) are scheduled between 2:30 pm and 4.30 pm.
Depending on the distance to the plant tour busses start between 1:30
and 2:15 pm at the Congress Center and will be back at the Congress
Center between 4:30 and 5:00 pm. The maximum number of participants
is limited. An early reservation is recommended.

The BMW car plant represents a new concept in car production. The
new production campus combines the construction process of the automobile
with the everyday activities which surround the production plant employing
5,500 employees. The central building forms the communications hub
and meeting place of the plant; it is from here that all other areas
of the car plant can be seen or experienced. Semi-finished body shells
are transported through the central building from each of the three
respective core areas on specially constructed conveyors. |

Worlds largest brown coal plant
The Lippendorf base-load power plant is located in the Free State
of Saxony, about 15 kilometres south of Leipzig, the City of fairs.
As early as in 1969 and 1971, power plant facilities for generating
electricity from lignite were built in Thierbach nearby. As retrofitting
with up-to-date environmental technology was not possible due to technical
and economic reasons, two newly built units were started up in Lippendorf.
With a net efficiency of approx. 43 percent, Lippendorf power station
is presently one of the most up-to-date plants generating power from
lignite worldwide.

The mill in Eilenburg is one of the most up-to-date newsprint paper
mills in the world.
Recycled newsprint and de-inked market pulp have been produced here
since September 1994. Recovered paper is our most important raw material.
It is delivered in bales or inbulk and afterwards processed in a modern
flotation de-inking plant. In this process the printing inks and other
impurities are removed from the recovered paper pulp. The result is
a standard or improved quality newsprint paper ranging from 40 to
52 g/m2, produced on a 10-metre wide twin-wire paper machine. |
