Market analysts predict growth for air scrubbers and adsorbers

Market research company McIlvaine says the scrubber and adsorber market is poised to rise from $6 billion USD this year to $7 billion in 2015.

Incineration and waste-to-energy applications make up a large segment of growth, while wastewater treatment is also on the rise because of associated air quality problems. The company reports that some wastewater plants invest more than US$1 million in air pollution control equipment.

Recent changes to the air toxic standards in the U.S. will also require almost 100 scrubbers in cement plants and industrial boilers, especially those burning coal and biomass.

Apart from the US, the market analysts pointed to a growing market in East Asia. China, for example, aims to clean up emissions from steel and mining operations and is in the process of building many wastewater treatment plants.

The I-6500 Series controls odors,
chemicals and particles in commercial
and industrial applications.

Adsorbers can remove a wide range of chemicals from the air. Electrocorp offers a wide variety of industrial-strength air purifying solutions.


Air purifiers for waste water treatment plants

Waste water treatment facilities are at risk for spreading volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and so should be concerned with air purification and filtration at the source. By implementing Electrocorp’s Air Rhino system in open areas in the treatment plants, airborne toxins can be kept to a minimum and sewage odor can be reduced where filtration occurs. Another option is the I-6500 Series, a powerful air scrubber with a deep bed of activated carbon and particle filters.

For a more localized filtration, (i.e., on the barrels containing contaminated or pre-filtered water and sewage) Electrocorp’s EZ Flow barrel attachment can be used to reduce odors and possible VOCs escaping into the air. The EZ Flow attachment contains 4 lb. of carbon with inlet and outlet particle filtration to 10 microns.

Electrocorp Air Filtration Systems is an experienced vendor and service provider for many federal, state, and local government agencies. We are pleased to provide government buyers with a dedicated government solutions team for fast and efficient service.
