İSTANBUL (TR) - The mucilage problem, which started in the ​​Marmara Sea and poses a threat to the Aegean and Black Seas, remains among the main agenda items of Turkey. As a result of the climate crisis, the search for solutions continues in order to prevent mucilage, which occurs due to reasons such as rising sea temperature and pollution, leading to a decrease in the diversity of living things in the sea. As the work on the removal of mucilage on the sea surface gains momentum, eyes are turned to permanent practices that will prevent the damage to which sea creatures are exposed. Finally, İSKİ announced that it will implement the Baltalimanı Biological Wastewater Treatment Plant, which will purify the Bosphorus from 70 thousand tons of sludge annually by purifying the wastewater of Istanbul with biological methods. According to the information obtained, Eryap Group's Bonus Yalıtım brand, which has been continuing its production activities for 20 years with the motto of the producer of the leading brands in the insulation sector, will supply the insulation materials for the exteriors of 4 tanks with an external facade of 15 thousand square meters.

“We are happy that it will protect a facility that will serve the environment and humanity”

Eryap Group CEO Emrullah Eruslu, who made a statement on the subject, said, “The Bonus Stone Wool product we have developed will be used in the insulation of the tanks of the Baltalimanı Biological Wastewater Treatment Plant. This project is one that we attach great importance to as Bonus Yalıtım. It is a project that will play a key role in solving the mucilage disaster, which is one of the agenda topics of our country, especially in terms of its technical details, especially in the Marmara Sea. This facility will not only save our seas from mucilage disaster, but also support the sustainable development of our country by keeping energy efficiency at the highest level. We are proud and happy that the Bonus Stone Wool product, which we produce in our 100% Turkish capital and high-tech facilities in Sakarya Hendek, will protect a valuable and important facility that will serve the environment and humanity.”

Guarantees energy efficiency

Pointing out that there is a misconception that stone wool insulation is generally necessary in residences, Eruslu said, “Rock wool is a heat and sound insulation material containing natural fibers, resistant to fire, and water-repellent. It is also used for large facilities that are beneficial to the environment and humanity. Moreover, for such facilities, insulation is even more important in terms of both the natural resources they use and the risks they carry. Bonus Stone Wool, developed by our engineers, is a high-end product that we export to various countries and has CE standards, which means compliance with EU norms, and guarantees energy efficiency, in addition to its use in Turkey residences. It is user and applicator friendly with its low thermal conductivity coefficient of 0.036 W/mK, various densities and thicknesses and its non-dusting feature.”
