CASE STUDY

Tallinn Zoo cleared the water Better view for Aron, Friida and the visitors TALLINN ZOO Tallinn Zoo was founded on 25 August 1939. The first exhibited animal was a cute cub. It was named Illu and later became the zoo’s emblem animal. Tallinn Zoo holds one of the best collections of mountain goats and sheep in the world. The zoo also holds a great number of eagles and vultures and a fine collection of and crane species. Today, the Tallinn Zoo exhibits one of the most fascinating zoo collections in Northern Europe and has been successful in the repro- duction of their nurselings

The ozone system was integrated into the new facilities from the start.

The Size (HxWxD): 1600 x 800 x 800 mm treatment system. The reason is the heavy load RENA Pro system has been stable providing Input power: 2.5 kW of proteins and other organic material which very precise dissolved ozone concentrations.
