The deterioration of air quality is on the rise all around the globe. Many places around the world are experiencing such smog to such an extent that it’s like smoking a couple of packs of cigarettes a day.
Saudi Arabia may not rank at the top of the list but they are up there. With industry work at an all-time high, the need for standards and regulations for more employees has never been more important than today. That is why, in industrial environments, such a thing as air-purifying is so essential, to ensure the health and quality of life of the employees, as well as keeping their efficiency at a stable rate.
Air purifying company services can be needed in a lot of industries, and for a lot of reasons, such as woodworking, agriculture, food processing, recycling, cement, mining, metal fabrication, chemical processing, and many more environments. Because, in these industries, the kind of work that is being done releases a lot of particulate matter into the air, and it needs to be removed. Not removing that particulate matter will make life harder for employees and even lead to health problems or other technical problems.
This highlights the need for air filtration in such work environments. There are many ways to filter the air in an environment, at different levels of comprehensiveness and sophistication.
Today, we will take a look at some of those methods to purify air and elaborate on how they work.
Let us begin:
Photoelectrochemical Oxidation
Photoelectrochemical oxidation (PECO) is a new technological advancement in the field of air purification. The way it works is by oxidization and then purifying the air by removing the organic particles and allergens in the environment. The effectiveness of the technology extends to 0.1nm particles.
High-Efficiency Particulate Air Purifiers
HEPA or High-efficiency particulate air purifiers work by absorbing the air in the environment and then extracting micro particulates, such as allergens, dust, dander, and even spores. The way they are able to produce such an effect is due to the fact that their filtration technology is made of micro thin fiber structures that manage to pull such particulates out of it. The air then becomes breathable. Such a filtration system is perfect for those with allergies or sensitive lungs.
Activated Carbon
The best system to eliminate particles such as smoke, whether it be from the kitchen or from a cigarette. And even odors from pets or the kitchen can be done using a process called Activated Carbon filtration. It works by attracting the pollutant to the filter and then running it through the activated charcoal, which then is released after purification, allowing you to breathe clean air.
Electrostatic Precipitators
Electrostatic precipitators (ESP) is a system which works by pulling the pollutants to its charged plates, which then run electrical charges through the pollutants which allow for purification of air. They are low-maintenance and easy to manage. They can remove all the usual dust, mold, smoke, pollen and other allergens from the air.
Ionic Filters
Similar to ESP, they work by running a charge through the air and therefore, the pollutants. They ionize the air and remove the binding on the dust, dirt, or odor particulates and eject the particulates through an exhaust system while releasing the purified air back into the room.
Conclusion
These are some of the filtration systems used to purify the air in certain environments. They work differently but all retain the basic system of removing hazardous, or otherwise harmful, particulates from the air, making it cleaner to breathe in.
