Mist removal systems

Elimination of polluting mists

Mists produced by industrial processes are small liquid particles suspended in the air that form when liquids are dispersed or evaporated under specific conditions. These mists can have different origins and compositions depending on the type of industry and process involved.

The presence of industrial mist can have implications for both human health and the environment. Depending on the composition of the mists and the substances involved, they may contain pollutants that pose health risks to workers and contribute to air pollution. That’s why it is crucial to implement emission control and environmental protection measures to minimise the negative impacts associated with the formation of industrial mist.

There are a number of technologies designed for the removal and treatment of industrial mists, each tailored to specific conditions and types of mists.

How and where do we find these mists?

Pollutant mists can be generated by a wide variety of different processes and therefore can have very different origins and compositions. Here are some of the most common ones:

Oil mists: In many industries, especially those related to machinery, metallurgy, and manufacturing, oil mists might be generated. This occurs when lubricating fluids are used or processes involving oil handling are carried out, where fine oil particles are dispersed into the air.
Water mists: In certain industrial processes, water misting systems are used for cooling, dust control, or other purposes. These systems release tiny water droplets into the air, forming water mists. This approach is commonly used in the power generation industry, chemical industry, and mining.
Chemical mists: In processes in chemical, pharmaceutical and other industries, and in the handling of chemical products, mists can contain fine particles of chemical substances.
Paint mists: In painting and coating processes, it is very common to generate paint mists, mainly in the application of these by spraying. Small paint particles can become suspended in the air, which can be harmful to health and the environment.
Refrigerant mists: In the manufacturing and mechanisation industry, especially in turning and grinding processes, coolant mists can be generated. These mists are typically generated by cooling and lubricating tools and workpieces.

What technologies are used for mist removal?

Depending on the sector, process and origin of the mist to be purified, there are different technologies to eliminate or reduce the negative impact of these mists. Here are some of the most common ones:

Mist Eliminators: These devices are designed to capture and remove liquid droplets suspended in the air. Mist eliminators use a variety of mechanisms, such as impaction, coalescence and filtration, to trap liquid particles and allow gas to pass through more cleanly.
Mist Cooling Towers: These towers are designed to capture and remove mists of water or cooling liquids. They work by cooling the mists through controlled evaporation, resulting in the condensation of the droplets and their subsequent collection at the bottom of the tower.
Absorption and washing systems: These systems involve the use of absorbent or washing liquids to remove liquid particles from mists. Wet scrubbers are a common example of this approach and are effective for treating mists containing water-soluble substances.

The choice of the right technology will depend on the composition of the mists, the characteristics of the industrial process and the specific emission control objectives. It is common for combined mist collector systems or multiple technologies to be implemented to effectively address different aspects of industrial fogs.
