CONTINUOUS AND REMOTE MONITORING

Integrated devices for continuous and remote monitoring of emissions from industrial air filtration systems

What is continuous monitoring of emissions from air filtration systems

Continuous monitoring is a very simple practice in itself, consisting in the implementation of devices and systems capable of controlling, at every instant, the composition, flow, and behavior of the air filtered by a special system.

This procedure allows, naturally, to constantly verify that the filters and aspiration apparatuses are correctly performing their functions, and that the air emitted into the atmosphere meets the regulatory requirements for the abatement of polluting substances.

The reference regulations for continuous monitoring of industrial emissions

Continuous monitoring of industrial emissions is regulated according to Legislative Decree 152/2006, which requires the implementation of equipment for this purpose in some specific categories of plants:

  • medium and large combustion plants subject to AIA, AUA;

  • plants subject to art. 275 with a mass flow of solvents emitted from the stack > 10kg/h of VOC;

  • incineration and co-incineration plants; waste energy recovery plants; cement plants; glassworks; steel mills.

The installation of special equipment therefore constitutes a legal obligation for various business realities; beyond this, moreover, carrying out continuous checks on the operation of the air filtration systems allows for their optimization, and provides useful data to increase business efficiency.

Application areas of continuous monitoring of plants

Continuous monitoring of emissions is necessary in practically all industrial and production sectors
A partial list cannot fail to include at least the following:

Bruno Balducci srl's remote continuous monitoring device

Bruno Balducci srl provides advanced IoT technology for continuous emission monitoring, capable of keeping systems and filters under control and ensuring their constant correct operation.

This is an integrated multifunction device capable of meeting all monitoring and verification needs for filtration systems:

  • Continuous monitoring of Suction Systems, Dust Filters, AHU

  • Temperature control options and triboelectric probe for constant monitoring of atmospheric emission levels

  • Control all your systems with a single interface, via web, via smartphone, via SMS

  • Real-time sending of alarms for exceeding user-defined thresholds

  • Historical data reporting, maintenance and chimney analysis

  • Agenda-Alert with deadlines for your systems

This allows technicians and maintenance managers to verify at any time, simply by connecting to the device via the internet from a PC or mobile phone, the correct functioning of the system and filters, so as to promptly carry out all maintenance operations and replacement of consumables only when truly necessary. The result is a company protected by better prevention of damage and the risk of system downtime and other critical situations; a company that can maintain full compliance with air filtration regulations while saving money, energy and time, and facilitating relations with the competent authorities.

The device is easy to install. It is supplied ready for operation and equipped with an M2M card, available on loan for use – via a monthly subscription with no strings attached – or for purchase, with a renewable 12-month subscription.

Warning: the installation of the continuous monitoring system on a newly built plant qualifies as an intervention included in the framework of the transition to Industry 4.0, and therefore benefits from the related tax incentives according to legal regulations.
