Food-industry processes such as baking, drying and roasting generate exhaust gases containing odorous substances and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These emissions can adversely affect the surrounding environment and must be removed efficiently.
Catalytic oxidation
Catalytic oxidation is suitable for removing odours and VOCs from exhaust gases with low to medium concentrations. A catalyst enables the pollutants to be oxidized at lower temperatures, reducing energy demand.
Benefits:
Application example: Odour removal in bakeries and coffee-roasting plants, where aromatic compounds are generated during thermal processing.
Thermal oxidation
Thermal oxidation is a versatile solution for a broad range of pollutants, including odorous substances and VOCs. The exhaust gas is heated to a high temperature in an oxidation chamber, where the pollutants are completely oxidized.
Benefits:
Application example: Treatment of exhaust gases from dryers and nut-roasting plants where intense odours and organic compounds must be removed efficiently.
Filtrační technika provides solutions for exhaust gases from ovens, dryers and roasting plants. Odours from these operations can be removed by catalytic oxidation or by the more versatile thermal oxidation process.
