Biological aircleaner

Biological aircleaners or airscrubbers work by allowing polluted air to come into direct contact with washing water within a filter. Dust, odors and ammonia dissolve in the water, creating an environment where bacteria can thrive. These bacteria convert harmful substances into water-soluble compounds, which are then safely discharged. The bacteria on the filter surface break down ammonia into nitrite and nitrate, which are removed with the washing water during regular replacements. The filter is made from a honeycomb-like plastic package that is designed to be self-cleaning, reducing maintenance needs. 

Cost-effective operation 

As the washing water becomes saturated with nitrates and nitrites, it needs to be refreshed periodically. The nutrient-rich discharged water can be reused for irrigation or further processed, promoting sustainable water management. 

The operational costs of a biological aircleaner are low due to the system’s low air resistance, which requires minimal additional air movement beyond normal ventilation. Maintenance is straightforward, involving regular inspections of nozzles and critical control values. 

Reverse Osmosis

The PureCycle RO is an innovative system that separates the discharge water from biological air cleaners into concentrate and water. This is achieved through membrane technology, which reduces the volume of the discharge water by up to ten times. The system is designed to clean automatically, and the purified water can be reused in the aircleaner. 

Dust Collection

To remove dust particles from the outgoing air, a dust collector can be employed. This device uses water to capture dust particles, making it an effective solution for dust problems. It can be used both as a stand-alone system and together with other equipment, such as behind a dryer or in front of an air cleaner.

The system ensures that the outgoing air is as free from dust particles as possible before it is released into the environment. This approach considers both emissions and the company’s surrounding environment. When the dust collector is installed before an air cleaner, it enhances the aircleaners performance by preventing filter packs from clogging quickly. This results in reduced cleaning time and energy consumption, as clogged filters cause higher pressure drops and increased fan capacity usage.

Chemical aircleaning

The chemical aircleaners use chemical reactions to neutralize harmful substances in the air, making them suitable for higher concentrations of ammonia. The chemical aircleaner works in 3 steps. The first step of the system is dust capture to prevent dust entering the filters. The second step is the chemical step where chemicals are added to the washing water to remove the pollutants. The last step makes sure that a minimum of chemicals exit the washer with the air flowing out of the aircleaner.  

Effective pollutant removal 

Chemical aircleaners are highly effective at removing a wide range of pollutants, including ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The chemical reactions ensure that these substances are neutralized and safely removed from the air. 

Low maintenance

While chemical aircleaners require regular replenishment of the chemical solutions used in the scrubbing process, the overall maintenance requirements are relatively low, as the system is designed to operate efficiently with minimal intervention.
