CHEMICAL INDUSTRY EXHAUST SYSTEMS

The chemical industry is certainly the area where the absolute need to have the highest quality and efficiency aspiration systems and plants stands out with greater prominence and notoriety. Depending on the specific substances processed and produced in each plant, in fact, it is possible to face dangers to health, safety, or the environment, and all must be avoided through the design and construction of dedicated aspiration systems .

In the production and processing of chemical substances, it is not even possible to define one or more specific critical areas: the entire production process, from dosing to mixing to the development of the necessary reactions, generates fine dust, vapors, fumes, exhalations and oil mists, and all of these are potentially harmful or dangerous. On the one hand, in fact, they represent a risk to the health of the operators who work in close contact with them, and who may incur problems ranging from simple dermatitis to extremely serious disorders and pathologies; on the other hand, they are potentially a risk to the environment, given their often toxic and highly polluting characteristics; and finally, they are often highly explosive, due to their intrinsic nature or to the concentration of dust in the air, and therefore represent a risk to safety within the company. The solution is the implementation of aspiration systems carefully designed to intervene in the necessary areas, to eliminate fumes, dust and gases as quickly as possible.

For each of its industrial aspiration systems, Balducci offers free consulting from the design phase and on the subsequent implementation, starting from an initial site survey. It is not possible to offer standard answers and solutions in the field of industrial aspiration: the possible combinations between the specific needs of the client, particular operating conditions and actual application situations are too numerous. Our systems are always custom-made. Inevitably, for example, an industrial aspiration system must be accompanied by the necessary precautions regarding the abatement noises With years of experience and specialization also in this field, we are able to incorporate these solutions into each of our projects. Where necessary, the systems can be built in accordance with all ATEX regulations .

Balducci offers a preventive and periodic maintenance service for aspiration systems to all its clients; we are able to operate with the same efficiency both on systems of our own making and on those of other companies. Regularly carrying out maintenance on industrial aspiration systems is, in fact, an operation of the utmost importance, because it implements three fundamental safeguards: that of the health of the operators working in the plant, obtained by cleaning the air of potentially toxic or harmful dust, that of safety regarding fires and explosions, ensured by the elimination of fine dust from the internal atmosphere of the building, and that of productivity, achieved by preventing machine downtime due to material accumulation.

The main operations related to the maintenance of industrial aspiration systems can be summarized as follows:

• Accurate control of the plant's conditions and verification of component wear

• Cleaning or replacement of the installed filter elements

• Repair of any damage; if necessary, replacement of damaged components

• Verification of the functionality of the aspiration system according to the established efficiency parameters

• Check of the safety devices installed on the system

• Restoration of any compromised functionalities
