Activated carbon filter for VOCs, chemicals, odors | CHEMSORB®

The Chemsorb^® filter is suitable for purifying all gaseous organic compounds (VOCs, solvents, thinners, odours) and many inorganic ones.

The term activated carbon refers to carbon that has been subjected to an activation treatment, giving it exceptional porosity and consequently making it adsorbent.

The adsorption consists of capturing and retaining the molecules of gas and other pollutants in the carbon’s cavities, thanks to electrostatic bonding.

Tecnosida offers both circular and rectangular models. The circular one is composed of robust carbon steel sheet elements, rolled and painted, and also has support legs. The rectangular type is made of press formed galvanized panels, assembled and bolted to each other. Alternatively, they can be made of other materials.
This type of construction makes future expansion of the purifier simple. Chemsorb^® consists of compact elements that allow the spent carbon to be easily replaced with new refills.
It is therefore a very simple equipment to manage, both in operation and for maintenance.

Ideal for all production processes and for specific applications that generate emissions containing VOCs, such as:

• Dry cleaning with VOCs (volatile organic compounds) or COCs (chlorinated organic compounds);
• Printing, painting, impregnation, glue spreading, resin coating, laminating, pad printing and lithography of various substrates with solvent-based products;
• Production of paints, glues, adhesives and/or related products with solvents;
• Other processes with VOC emissions.

The Chemsorb^® activated carbon filter:

• may be designed with different shapes (circular or rectangular models). These construction methods make it easy to expand the filter even after the installation;
• it is designed in sheet steel, polypropylene, stainless steel or other materials depending on the needs of the production sector;
• it is simple to use and its efficiency is kept constant thanks to ordinary maintenance;
• may be used to filter a wide range of gaseous pollutants;
• it is designed according to the best technology (BAT).

• pre-treatment filter for dusts removal;
• non-return valve;
• electronic balance for checking the exhaustion of coal;
• ladders and protective railings;
• possible design with breakage panels in compliance with ATEX norms.

Tecnosida^® is a perfect partner for planning and execution of ordinary and extraordinary maintenance services required to :

• Verify filter’s proper functioning
• Keep high filtration efficiency
• Reduce economic and energetic wastes
• Comply with safety and environmental rules and regulations
