Plastic & Injection Molding

Plastic & Injection Molding Treatment & Conveying Configuration

Injection fume and odour treatment, granulating dust collection and material conveying to hoppers.

Working condition

Typical problems in this sector

  • Injection fume and odour affect the workshop environment and nearby receptors.
  • Granulating and mixing lines generate fine polymer dust with static risk.
  • Material conveying to machine hoppers is often manual and dusty.
  • Exhaust concentration is low but air volume is large, so direct oxidation is uneconomic.

Stage by stage equipment selection

Each row shows the process stage, the machine we normally select and the point that decides whether it performs on site.

Energy

Energy saving measures for this sector

  • Cooling water pump speed control usually gives the fastest payback in injection workshops.
  • Heat from the catalytic combustion unit can preheat drying air.

Odour and VOCs limits for plastic plants are set by local regulation and receptor distance. Adsorption media replacement interval depends on actual concentration and running hours.
