In adsorption, gaseous pollutants are removed from an air stream by transferring the pollutants to the solid surface of an adsorbent. Activated carbon is the most commonly used adsorbent. Adsorption involves the adhesion of pollutant gas molecules to porous solid surfaces that the contaminated air stream passes through.
The Waste transfer hub pictured below, has an installation of two carbon adsorbers, each of annular design and capable of handling 60,000m3/h of exhaust air. The adsorbers utilise granular activated carbon as the adsorption media.
• Removal of Hydrogen Sulphides
• Removal of Oil vapours
• Removal of Odour VOCs
• Removal of Gas Phase hydrocarbons
