Electrostatic Precipitators & Activated Carbon Filters: Essential Air Purification Solutions for Food Processing Plants

Understanding Air Pollution Challenges in Food Processing Facilities

In the food processing industry, operations such as frying, baking, and seasoning release various airborne contaminants, including:

• Grease-laden vapors

• Fine particulate matter (PM2.5 and smaller)

• Smoke and aerosols

• Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)

• Odorous gases from spices and fermentation

Without proper air purification, these pollutants can lead to equipment degradation, health hazards, and non-compliance with environmental regulations.

Electrostatic Precipitators: Precision Capture of Fine Particulates

Electrostatic Precipitators (ESPs) are highly effective in removing fine particles from exhaust air, achieving efficiencies exceeding 95%. JULAN's industrial ESP systems operate by charging airborne particles and collecting them on oppositely charged plates.

Key advantages:

• High-efficiency filtration of smoke and grease particles

• Low pressure drop, minimizing energy consumption

• Modular designs suitable for various installations

• Washable, reusable collection cells

JULAN offers a range of ESP configurations, including duct-mounted units and custom-engineered systems for unique facility layouts.

Activated Carbon Filters: Critical for Odor and VOC Control

Activated Carbon Filters complement ESPs by adsorbing gaseous contaminants, particularly odors and VOCs. These filters use porous carbon media to trap gaseous molecules through physical adsorption.

Applications:

• Fish or meat processing

• Spiced food manufacturing

• Fermentation-based production

• Fried snack or instant noodle plants

JULAN's odor control systems combine these filters with pre-filtration stages to enhance performance and extend service life.

Integrated Systems for Full-Spectrum Air Purification

To address the complex nature of industrial exhaust in food plants, JULAN provides integrated solutions combining:

• Oil fume purifiers (ESP-based)

• Activated carbon modules

• Custom kitchen exhaust hoods

• Industrial exhaust fans and ducting systems

These systems are designed to meet international air quality and safety standards, ensuring energy efficiency and compatibility with existing HVAC infrastructure.
