Purpose: To propose and verify an innovative concept model of integrating standardized energy management system according to ISO 50001 management system of enterprises in the network of automobile suppliers. Methodology/Approach: Based on an analysis of previous approaches to innovation and standardization of energy aspects of corporate management with an emphasis on principles and indicators of energy intensity in accordance with ISO 50001 there has been designed and by a case study verified model of integration of energy management in the specific company automobile production. Research output has been generalized and modified for repeated applications in this area. Findings: Implementation of the integration model of energy management and energy performance indicators ISO 50001 demonstrate effectiveness of the management of energy and readiness for certification of energy management, increased energy efficiency and production system demonstrated the ability of continuous improvement of indicators. Research limitation/implication: Due to the low-energy environmental awareness it is necessary to invest funds including also external consultants, mobilize human resources of various departments, software, hardware and so on. The barrier is the lack of practical experience to the management of enterprise energy efficiency within the purview of BAT technology and due to the limitations of natural resources. Progressive development concepts and strategies in industry put more and more emphasis on energy quality of a corporate production. As the output of activities in this area standard ISO 50001-Energy Management System was published by the International Organization for Standardization for international accreditation and certification. The standard
This chapter presents the results of a multiannual systematic research and development of essentially new environmental safety technology of overlapping tailing pond modelled in terms of Vojany thermal power plant (EVO), Slovakia. Re-cultivated tailing area can be used to produce biomass (Swedish willow) and this biomass is used again for subsequent incineration with coal. Laboratory and small plot experiments conducted directly in the tailing pond area resulted in the development of another new dimension of environmental technology of decontamination of tailing ponds. This technology connects technical, safety, economical and environmental efects for biomass production.
Thermal energy is the second most important source in Slovakia after electricity, which represents almost 13.6 % of total energy production. In one of the Slovak thermal power plant Vojany (EVO) occurs by coal combustion as an undesirable slag ash mixture deposited on the tailing pond. By using environmentally sound technologies it is necessary to ensure adequate management of this waste, security and long-term stability of tailing pond. The aim of the paper is to formulate conclusions from the composition structure of EVO tailing pond and then its use. Authors realized as the main method the Design of Experiments, where the research was to investigate boreholes based on diagonal and cross-section. From the results obtained there was found that volume of tailing pond is 5,164,800 m3. In this volume there is 1,045,319 m3 of a low ash, which represents cca 20%, which can be repeatedly reused in coincineration with black coal. The development of combustion technology suggests that in the near future it will be possible to use the whole volume of the examined tailing pond for co-incineration, thus reclaiming of the tailing pond basin in an environmental manner.
