Sumitomo Bakelite Europe NV specializes in producing phenolic resins and polyester. These phenolic resins are an important component in the production of many plastics. Controlling emissions released during production processes is essential, especially when hazardous substances such as phenol are involved.
Custom made scrubber
In order to meet the strict environmental standards and safety regulations applicable to this SEVESO company, Task Environmental Engineering was engaged to supply and install a custom-built scrubber. This scrubber was designed to effectively remove phenol from the air streams released during the production of phenolic resins.
We supplied a counterflow scrubber suitable for a flow rate of 3000 m³/h. The system was designed to clean the air by absorbing harmful phenolic emissions, ensuring that emissions comply with applicable environmental regulations and that the company can meet its air quality obligations.
Safety and compliance with SEVESO standards
In a SEVESO company, where the risks from hazardous materials can be significant, safety is of paramount importance. The scrubber Task supplied meets the strict safety standards and regulations specific to this sector. The scrubber ensures that airflows are handled in a safe and efficient manner, allowing the production of phenolic resins to take place with minimal impact on the environment and the health of employees.
Sustainable technology
The counterflow scrubber is not only a solution for phenol removal, but also a step toward more sustainable business. The system is designed to achieve high efficiency. The scrubber guarantees long-term and reliable operation.
