OIL MIST / PLASTICIZER

Machining/Metalworking

In metalworking operations coolants and lubricants are used to cool the tools and dies used to form metal parts. Often these emissions cause “blue haze” or hydrocarbon smog to form inside the manufacturing plant as well as a build up of oil film on equipment, walls and floors. Kimre B-GON® Mist Eliminators and Fiber Bed Filters are an ideal way to ensure indoor air quality and to minimize hazardous conditions for workers. The Kimre equipment can be supplied for point source control as well as combined “house” ventilation systems.

Food Frying

When foods are fried, the oils that are used will evolve droplets into the air. Kimre B-GON® Mist Eliminators and Fiber Bed Filters provide an effective control solution to eliminate stack opacity and oil drop out on rooftops and surrounding areas.

Plasticizers

Many additives are used in making plastic products to impart specific properties to the polymer being used. The plasticizer additives often have properties that make them difficult to control. They vaporize during plastic processing, but will condense out as the air cools in the ventilation system. Depending on the materials and temperatures, the condensed droplets will often be in the sub-micron range, making them perfect for control with Kimre Fiber Bed FIlters
