Air Pollution Control Equipment For A Better Tomorrow.

 


We are aware of the pollution problems the world has been facing. It has been rising at an alarming rate, and the statistics are appalling. Industrial pollution plays a significant role in destroying the quality of air. Often the industries ignore the importance of installing Industrial Air Pollution Control  Equipment, making the industrial revolution a curse and not a blessing.

At this stage where the environment is drastically being affected by the chemical emissions from the industries, one must consider Industrial Air Pollution Control Equipment. The areas that host clusters of factories tend to emit pollutants in larger quantities and deteriorate the visibility, air quality, environmental health and even put lives at risk.

The industries use a mix of processes and types of equipment to ensure control over chemically induced smokes and other harmful substances that are dangerous pollutants. We all know that air pollutants are produced by every part of the industry’s production process. To control it with one single equipment will not help. Keeping that in mind, an amalgamation of many functions and types of equipment is considered.


There are mainly three types of processes that are followed by the industries to filter the emissions. Below is a gist of the process for you to understand the basics of the techniques:

Combustion; where the pollutants are destroyed with the heat of extreme temperatures when they are emitted into the air.

Conversion; here, the pollutants change into less harmful substances with the help of chemical processes.

Collection; in this case, the pollutants are removed from the waste air before waste air goes out of the factories and poisoning the environment.

Through various types of equipment, the execution of the above processes is done. A mix of many kinds of equipment ensures better efficiency in the whole pollution control process. The types of industrial air pollution control equipment usually used by the industries are:

Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems

Parametric Monitoring

Emission Control Systems

Oxidisers

Scrubbers


The above purifier systems are mindfully used to decrease harmful and toxic emissions from the factories. These mainly function by monitoring various parameters very closely and using extreme amounts of heat to break the pollutants and converting them into non-toxic carbons.

To make sure that you are contributing to the well-being of the environment and actively participating in building a safer tomorrow, start controlling. Only an expert like Thermax, who has been in this industry since decades knows how to offer a complete solution to protect the air quality. It is essential to realise that polluting our environment will harm not only our present but also future generations.  Think and act today!

What are Bi-Drum Boilers? How Do They Work?

Image
Bi-drum boilers are used for purposes of power generation and as process steam generators. This type of boiler is used up to 100MW for generating power. Bi-drum boilers are non-reheat units which are getting wiped out due to high heat rate of the plant. These boilers are used for generating high steam pressure which is used for power generation owing to their ability to accommodate high load of fluctuation and respond to load changes with more agility compared a single drum boiler. The two drums in the bi-drum boiler are connected using a large number of convective heat transfer tubes known as bank tubes or boiler bank tubes. These tubes are about one thousand in number. The bank tubes and the drum at the bottom that contains water will have a water level that will be up to the normal working level of water in the upper drum. The water availability in the bi-drum boiler makes it very adoptable for large load changes. Flue gases enter the bank tubes which are placed towards t...

How Do Electrostatic Precipitators Work?

Image
Reducing air pollutants is vital for human health and the health of the environment. Poor air quality has harmful effects on human health, particularly the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. Pollutants also damage plants and buildings, and smoke or haze can reduce visibility. Industries are largely responsible for causing pollution. They are also the ones who have access to a number of pollution control devices that absorb, filter, dilute, and disperse pollutants. One such device for pollution control is the electrostatic precipitator. This device works by removing particles and smoke from a gas stream using an electrostatic charge. Dust particles travel past wires that have a high direct current (DC) voltage applied, which ionises the surrounding gas. This corona discharge causes the particles to pick up a small electrostatic charge, without impeding the gas flow. Originally designed for recovery of valuable industrial-process materials, electrostatic precipitators are used a...

Quick overview of the Import & Export of Chemicals in India

Image
The chemical industry in India offers building blocks and essential raw materials for numerous industries such as paints, paper, textiles, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, soap, and detergents, etc. Let’s go through a few statistics of the chemical industry: The chemical industry in India is ranked 4th in Asia and 6th in the world. The global chemical industry is expected to be worth $4.7 trillion. The chemical companies in India contributes 3.4% to the global chemical industry. As of 2018, the chemical industry (including pharmaceuticals and fertilizers) stood at $163 billion. The Chemical sector in India is expected to grow at 9% per annum to reach $304 Bn by FY 2025. The expansion is anticipated to be pushed by rising demand in end-use segments for Specialty Chemicals and also for petrochemical intermediates. In 2015-16, the Chemical and Chemical Products sector accounted for 2.39percent of the GVA, compared to 2.23percent in 2014-15.18 Note: With India possessing a l...
