ECOSORB® ENGINEERING MANUAL
Scrubbing systems Ecosorb® can replace a wide range of odor control chemicals used in scrubbing systems. Ecosorb® offers an environmentally friendly substitute to dangerous chemicals currently used in the majority of scrubbers since it is non-toxic, biodegradable and safe to use. Prior investigation of relevant odor control regulations and odor control requirements may save a company millions of dollars by not installing costly scrubbing systems in the plant. It is possible that a simple injection or fogging process utilizing Ecosorb® will allow the company to meet or exceed local odor emission regulations while saving extensive costs. In all cases, Ecosorb® should be evaluated as an independent odor control method. A simple process that uses inexpensive current technology may control situations formerly requiring large capital outlay. When selecting your equipment, we suggest that you refer to Tables 3.3, 3.4, and 3.5 to ensure material compatibility and equipment longevity. Tables 3.1 and 3.2 contain examples of equipment currently used to solve various odor problems. These are guidelines only as each application drives the correct equipment selection.
