Manufactured Goods

Whether your company produces wood flooring, plastics, steel products, paper, or just about anything else, you will need to reduce emissions of potentially harmful chemicals. The most common among these are VOCs and solvents used in many products, such as coatings and adhesives. Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) are also widespread, as are NOx and SOx). All of these substances must be treated to avoid environmental issues such as acid rain, ozone formation, and smog. As legislation is tightened, it’s essential that companies have adaptable and modular solutions in place. DESOTEC’s mobile sustainable filters are the simple answer – either as standalone treatments or in combination with other technologies. DESOTEC filters use activated carbon to adsorb a huge range of compounds, purifying emissions and ensuring business continuity.

Many VOCs and solvents, including styrene, release strong odors. So does hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), which is found in a range of industries including textile manufacturing and paper processing. To ensure pleasant conditions for workers and the local community, these substances must be treated promptly. Some compounds, such as NOx and benzene, are hazardous to human health unless concentrations are heavily reduced. Industrial odor control and occupational health laws are being increasingly tightened, and more molecules are being added to the list of substances of very high concern (SVHC). DESOTEC’s mobile activated carbon filters reduce their concentrations, thus enabling you to comply with regulations and preserve the quality of the air in your area.

Wastewater from the manufacturing industry can contain H₂S, benzene, NOx, SVHC, and adsorbable organic halides (AOX) from chlorinated cleaning products. Together, these substances are measured as COD, which must be lowered to keep waterways flourishing and protect the human food chain. DESOTEC’s mobile water treatment services ensure that water is pure enough to be discharged to the waterways, sent to wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), or reused, thus reducing your costs and enhancing your sustainability. Because our filters are mobile and have a small footprint, they are also ideal for short-term and emergency usage, such as for spills and maintenance work.
