RECOVERING OIL FROM CONTAMINATED EXHAUST AIR OF THE PRINTING INDUSTRY

in

For an application within the printing industry, Anytherm realized a heat exchanger unit to recover oil from polluted exhaust air. During the drying of printing inks, water, mineral oil and CO2 is released through evaporation into polluted exhaust air. Our heat exchanger unit cools down the contaminated exhaust air, so that the contained substances condense and can then be recycled. The recovered oil can be refined and finally sold and used again. Resulting in clean air at the end of the process, this can eliminate the need of the energy and CO2-intense thermal post-combustion of the polluted exhaust air.

The successfully completed project, which included installation and isolation at the customers site, proves our ability in designing customized systems for various special applications – always aiming for the optimal solution in terms of technology, economy and ecology.
