COMPANIES BUSINESS AREAS TECHNOLOGIES CREDENTIALS CAREER SERVICE CONTACT BEGIN | NEWS | ANTI-DAMAGE TRAINING AT THE NOCHTEN HEATING PLANT Anti-damage training at the Nochten heating plant GMB also produces and supplies heat at the industrial site of the open-cast mine in Nochten. For this purpose, GMB operates a local heating plant. In order to continuously improve occupational safety as well as environmental and quality management, regular anti-average training courses (AHT) are carried out at GMB's operating locations. On 09.09.2021, the escape of lignite dust when filling the fuel silo of our heating plant was simulated as part of an AHT. The filling takes place by means of a silo vehicle from our supplier and sister company TSS. In the case of an AHT, any incident is deliberately simulated and then occupational safety, the reaction of employees on site, compliance with reporting chains and the deployment of the fire and rescue services are trained and checked. With the help of the LEAG plant fire brigade, the escaping lignite dust was bound and removed at the transfer point. All employees on site as well as our service partners in this process, TSS and LEAG, have done a great job and successfully completed the training. Thanks to all contributors. From the GMB's point of view, we were again able to gain some insights into improving our processes. This is how we make our products and services even more reliable and safe for our employees - but especially for our customers too.
