With its eleven sites, GSB ensures the environmentally sound disposal of industrial waste for the whole of Bavaria. Approximately 380,000 tons of material are processed safely and reliably each year under strict environmental guidelines. The incineration plant for hazardous waste in Baar-Ebenhausen forms the backbone of the area-wide disposal infrastructure.  The regular renewal of the control technology was the decisive factor for the modernization of the incineration lines including the auxiliary plants. The focus of the upgrade was on the long-term availability of the new control system. Through strategic planning, GSB wanted to secure the longest possible period for service and support as well as the supply of spare parts.

• For monitoring and controlling the individual processes, the Simatic PCS 7 process control system replaced the previous system with Simatic S5 controllers.
• In the marshalling cabinets, the previous Termi-Point posts were replaced by push-in terminals and the new control cabinets were connected in which a completely newly developed peripheral line from Siemens now performs its services: Simatic ET 200SP HA.
