Workstations and equipment
Capture and treat releases close to extruders, molding machines, reactors, feed points, filter presses and other emission sources.
EXHAUST GAS TREATMENT
Industrial odor control
Identify where odors occur before defining capture methods, treatment objectives and acceptance boundaries.
OPERATING CONDITIONS
Where does the odor occur?
Define the problem
Emissions escape close to equipment or a production line
Assess local enclosure, independent operation, oil mist, particles and temperature before choosing equipment.- Can the source be enclosed locally?
- Does the line stop and start frequently?
- Are oil mist or particles present?

DEFINE THE PROBLEM
Begin with sources and operating boundaries.
The same odor requires different responses at a workstation, inside a workshop, at an outlet or along a site boundary. We start with the process, composition, perceived impact and existing capture system.
Then assess solubility, reactivity, physical state, temperature, humidity and load to select a suitable treatment sequence.
TREATMENT BOUNDARIES
Four areas to assess.
Capture, operating controls and acceptance measurements change with the boundary.
Workshops and indoor spaces
Address local leakage and residual odors in production areas, finished-product stores, laboratories and animal facilities.
Ducted exhaust outlets
Treat collected process exhaust, wastewater odors, fermentation and vulcanization gases, and waste-storage ventilation.
Fugitive emissions and site boundaries
Include enclosure, capture, negative pressure, operating schedules and weather-driven dispersion in the assessment.
