Industrial ventilation

Many industrial facilities have processes which produce hazardous dusts, mists, vapors or gases. Preventing occupational exposure to these substances often requires an exhaust system engineered to capture and convey the contaminants or products and clean the exhaust stream to recover valuable material or prevent air pollution.

There are many components of an industrial ventilation system and all of them must function properly and simultaneously.

The "front end" of the system or the hoods are often the most difficult to design. A hood must have the proper configuration, inlet velocity and location to capture the contaminant efficiently.

Once the contaminant has been captured, it must be conveyed to its ultimate destination. This requires a ductwork system designed to accomplish this efficiently, safely, and reliably. The duct sizing and configuration should allow the contaminant to be conveyed at a high enough velocity to prevent the settling of material in the duct while also avoiding excessive velocities and pressure drop. The duct and supports must be fabricated of material which is strong enough to support the pressure differential, its own weight, and the weight of any settled material in the duct.

The fan is the heart of the exhaust system and must be of the proper type, with the proper wheel, and of the proper arrangement and size.

When the duct must also be able to withstand erosion caused by particulates and corrosion caused by chemicals, plastics such as PVC, polyethylene, PP and PPS can offer a great solution depending on your application.
