Traditional approaches such as hiring and managing fire watch staff proved to be inefficient and costly, leading Biomass One to seek an innovative and proactive solution. Recognizing the limitations of traditional approaches, Biomass One’s journey towards an innovative fire prevention solution led them to MoviTHERM and their iEFD system, which revolutionized their approach by offering continuous real-time monitoring of the biomass wood piles and eliminating the requirement for manual oversight and dedicated fire watch staff.

By detecting hot spots early on, the iEFD system enabled Biomass One to take prompt and proactive measures, preventing fires from escalating and bolstering power plant fire protection measures. The video showcases how this advanced solution enhances safety while also serving as a cost-effective alternative to personnel management. The endorsement and support from the local fire department further solidify the credibility and effectiveness of the iEFD system, establishing it as a trusted fire prevention solution.

Biomass One’s commitment to comprehensive safety measures is evident in its strategic integration of the iEFD system with their existing infrastructure. The video highlights the installation of infrared cameras above existing water cannons, enabling immediate response in the event of a fire. Real-time alarms and notifications are sent to the control room upon detection of a hot spot, facilitating prompt assessment and triggering of necessary actions. This seamless integration has allowed Biomass One to prevent incidents from escalating, minimizing potential damage or downtime.

“MoviTHERM’s iEFD solution has revolutionized fire prevention at Biomass One and in other industries,” said Markus Tarin, CEO of MoviTHERM. “We are thrilled to showcase the success of our iEFD solution in preventing fires and protecting valuable assets through this video. By partnering with Biomass One and receiving the approval of the local fire marshal, we have demonstrated the system’s effectiveness and gained confidence in its ability to prevent fires before they happen.”

Since implementing the iEFD solution, Biomass One has experienced remarkable improvements in fire prevention. The continuous real-time monitoring and early detection capabilities of the iEFD system have significantly minimized the risk of fires in their biomass wood piles. As a result, Biomass One has not required the fire department’s assistance for firefighting operations, emphasizing the effectiveness and reliability of the iEFD solution.
