Croatia: Karlovacka Brewery closed production after all
The Environment Protection Ministry refuted reports that Karlovacka Brewery had been allowed to continue production, Javno reported March 21.
Although it was reported that Karlovacka Brewery had been allowed to continue production, the Environment Protection and Urban Development Ministry said the brewery did not have permission to continue work.
In order for the brewery to get a working permit, the ministry allowed production for a trial period of seven days.
The construction inspection had ordered the brewery to take out a construction permit for its plant, a part of which is the recuperator of carbon dioxide. As the brewery obtained the construction permit, it requested of the ministry a test period of seven days, after which it could be liable to receive the working permit for the plant. Ministry spokeswoman Kata Gojevic said the permit was temporary, which does not mean that the brewery will be allowed to continue operating after the trial period.
The recuperator is a device that collects carbon dioxide and restores it to the production process. Carbon dioxide poisoning was most probably the cause of death of Zdravko Martinovic from Karlovac. Our prominent toxicologist Dr. Franjo Plavsic confirmed that carbon dioxide poisoning was most probably what killed Martinovic. He recalled that the autopsy on martinovics dog, who was found dead next to the comatose Martinovic, showed that the dogs death occurred due to hypoxia, a lack of oxygen, caused by a high concentration of carbon dioxide.
