The Patchwork of Regulatory Frameworks Consider the journey of a single particulate emission from your pump's exhaust stack. In Chile, that particle faces the scrutiny of standards mirroring EPA Tier 4. ...
This filtration technology captures micro-fine particulate matter and hazardous volatile organic compounds before exhaust gases enter the stack. Such granular environmental control is technically impossible in standard drum systems, which rely on basic wet scrubbers susceptible to localized water-discharge restrictions. ...

For consulting engineers tasked with planning, designing and supervising construction projects, today’s zero-emission high-voltage electrode boilers offer advantages over traditional fossil-fuel burning models. Used for centralized heating, power plants, swing-load balancing and fuel boiler replacements, they can match the capacity (up to 65 MW) and output (270,000 lb of steam per hour) of ...
These zero-emission, high-voltage electrode boilers are used in diverse environments for applications. For consulting engineers tasked with planning, designing, and supervising construction projects for a wide range of industries, advanced electric boilers - particularly high-voltage electrode boilers - can offer some advantages over traditional fossil fuel burning boilers. Due to advances in ...
The Challenge As the lithium-ion battery industry grows rapidly, old technology is being replaced with new. Furthermore, the lithium-ion batteries powering electric vehicles (EV’s) will not last forever. Due to degradation, the typical lifespan of an EV car battery is 10-20 years or between 100,000 and 200,000 miles. So, what happens to these batteries when they’ve reached the end of ...
There are some evaporator designs that have holes in the burner tube so the gas from the combustion process bubbles through the water on its way to the exhaust stack. This design is an effort to create more heat transfer by having the off gas bubble through the water. ...
Finally, the cooler, purified air is exhausted to the atmosphere through the system stack. Lowering the oxidation temperature to between 350°F (177°C) and 850°F (454°C) offers many benefits: Decreased fuel usage Lower cost of construction materials Reduced thermal cycling Fewer Greenhouse Gas (GHGs) emissions; Carbon Monoxide (CO), Nitrogen ...
THE PROBLEM: New Belgium Brewery, known most famously for Fat Tire Belgian Ale, began brewing craft beer in Fort Collins, Colorado in 1991. In 2016, a secondary location was opened in Asheville, North Carolina and began receiving complaints from plant workers and neighbors of smells from plant operation. The fermentation process of brewing beer produces extremely odorous airstreams, and as the ...
In the US, whole-air collection methods, such as glass ‘bombs’ canisters and sampling bags, are widely used for monitoring stack emissions, in accordance with (for example) US EPA Methods 0030, 325 and 5041A. ...
The Challenge Regeneration Game – Originally printed in The Canmaker Magazine – Sayers Publishing Group As the first generation of oxidizer systems in the industry nears the end of their service life, many canmaking plants face repair or replacement of their existing air pollution control systems. Like many others in the industry, a Silgan canmaking plant in the Midwest had been ...
The Once Through Steam Generator with Silencing Exhaust Stacks was installed at North York Energy Station in Newmarket, Ontario. Cambridge Pro Fab’s scope of supply included the Exhaust Stacks and 409ss Upper Exhaust Baffles. ...
The PEMS were set to monitor SO2, NOx, O2, CO, and CO2 from the exhaust stack for all nine units. The equipment was installed and started up on April 2015. ...
From city building development to transportation infrastructure, the Cement industry plays an important role in the structural infrastructure development and in the overall economic growth of the country. It is a highly energy-intensive industry, in which the correct airflow systems are crucial for optimum production and profitability. Cement manufacturing requires specific industrial fans to ...
Operating temperature is about the same as a normal thermal oxidizer (say 1600oF), but the hot flue gas passes through a heat exchange module before reaching the stack. At least 2 of these modules are used -- one is always absorbing heat from the flue gas and one is always shedding heat into the waste gas. ...
With pollution on the rise, the need to abate harmful contaminants and stay in compliance with the Clean Air Act is of upmost importance. For this reason, companies are turning to experienced vendors that focus on air pollution control technologies to help keep them in compliance. While there are many viable options, many times, a wet scrubber fitted with quality mist eliminators will be ...
The CONCORD Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) System will control the exhaust gas from one (1) dryer and one (1) non-condensable stream from the distillation process during cellulosic ethanol production. ...
Condensing is environmentally preferable because it does not rely on an exhaust stack. Our process is singular in the industry in that we circulate the tank vapors recovering as we go. ...
When a UK-based textiles manufacturing plant were looking to increase the energy efficiency of its twin yarn drying process lines ThermTech designed, manufactured and installed a waste heat recovery system which met their needs. The two dryers originally exhausted both hot and humid air to atmosphere at around 140°C. A simple, self-controlling and cost effective heat ...
The operating principle of wet air scrubbers is based on flue gas cooling, chemical injection, and proper filtering at the outlet of the exhaust stack to carry over the chemicals into the atmosphere. It should be noted that there are seawater scrubbers, freshwater scrubbers as well as hybrid scrubbers. ...
Flue gas desulfurization (FGD) is the technology used for removing sulfur dioxide (SO2) from the exhaust flue gases in power plants and has a long tradition with more than 50 years of traceable references. ...
