Environmental Protection Policies
As Özbey Precious Metals Refinery, we operate ethically, accountably and environmental-friendly. We respect our environment and take action to protect nature by carefully following the obligations of national and international environmental laws. We prioritize planning and analyzing the ecological impacts of our activities, from raw material procurement to customer experience. Minimizing our ecological footprint and ensuring eco-friendly production models are fundamental to our environmental protection policy. We are committed to make products with green methods and perform with world-leading cutting-edge technologies. To enhance production processes and workflows under our ecological production policies, we develop and deploy "Waste Management", "Recycling", and "Energy Management" programs.
Waste Management
On our path to zero waste production, we arrange the rules according to globally accepted waste management and emissions standards. Our advanced wastewater, smoke, and chemical treatment facilities enable the refining and processing of precious metals to be environmentally sustainable. Chemical waste, such as nitric acid, is recovered and reused in the production cycle. We empower our responsible production concept with our waste management program that minimizes chemical consumption and production reaction time.
Recycling Solutions
Our innovative and eco-friendly machinery park enables maximized recycling. Our product recycling program controls environmental footprint with zero waste approach that minimizes waste by recycling and reusing each material in the production. Chemical components are recovered rather than disposed of as waste due to emission minimization in our production. As a result of this circular economy model, recovered materials are reused in manufacturing process. Materials such as precious metals, natural resources, clean water, and chemicals are repeatedly recycled and reused in production.
Energy Management
We use green technologies and advanced machinery to ensure maximum output with low energy consumption. We strive to minimize resource usage in our workflows, reducing our carbon footprint. We also initiated a solar energy facility project that includes energy production through solar panels to be established on our land of 200 acres. Our commitment to investing in high technology will continue to enhance our eco-efficiency and reduce energy consumption during production.
