Fine paper, clean air dust collector

Many processes in the paper, pulp and printing industries leave dust behind after the separation of trimmings and waste materials. Often, environmental requirements do not allow process dust to be released into the atmosphere or returned to the building unfiltered, so you need to dispose of it yourself. Using a dust collector becomes one of the most important options for paper mills.

Paper dust produced in paper mills is usually small in size and light in weight. It floats easily in the air. The bleaching process used in papermaking produces H2S gas, chlorine vapors, and the shredding and drying process produces dust, carbon dioxide, evaporated sulfur, and other harmful gases. Exposure to paper dust and exhaust gases from paper mills can cause people to immediately experience symptoms such as sneezing, sore and itchy eyes ...... Due to their ultra-lightweight and microscopic nature, they can enter the body through the respiratory tract, leading to asthma and rhinitis respiratory problems, as well as skin disorders, eye injuries, and other dangers. Dust problems in the paper industry are not only a threat to the environment and the human body, paper dust and waste can contaminate the finished paper and there is also a risk of flammability.

LEFILTER - Creating a clean environment in paper production

Therefore, the use of dust collectors effectively captures and removes paper dust and particles from the air, keeping the air in the workshop clean and reducing the risk of air pollution. This not only helps to maintain the health and safety of employees, but also improves productivity, reduces equipment breakdowns and maintenance costs, and ensures the stability and reliability of the papermaking process. Therefore, the use of dust collectors in the paper industry is an indispensable necessity to create a healthier, safer and more efficient working environment. LEFILTER has four dust collectors that can be adapted to your different purification needs, capturing fine particles down to 1 micron. They are lightweight, compact, and easy to use. You can choose to use them either on the workbench or suspended from the ceiling.

What are the benefits of using a dust collector in the paper industry?

Dust Control: The fan motor creates an air barrier that keeps dust particles off the floor. This controlled airflow prevents the creation of dust clouds and the accumulation of dust on structural components and equipment.

Microbial control: microorganisms and bacteria that may be present in the laboratory can affect the reliability of experimental results and data. Air scrubbers reduce the risk of contamination during experiments by effectively removing microorganisms from the air.

Fire Protection: There is no buildup of combustible dust, effectively reducing the risk of fire and explosion. Each industrial de-dusting fan system is carefully designed to provide optimum prevention for paper machines.

Easy Maintenance: Industrial dust collectors direct dust downward, eliminating the need for time-consuming and potentially dangerous cleaning in hard-to-reach areas.

Increased Efficiency: The dust collector is equipped with a remote control that can be timed or set to run automatically, so you don't have to keep an eye on it all the time, adding time for other tasks.

Dust is generated when materials are transported, handled, processed, polished, ground, and shaped. It can be created by sanding, cutting, mixing, screening, or welding. The deposition of dry residues from the processing of wet materials can also generate dust.

In a factory or warehouse, dust accumulates quickly and can cause many problems, such as increased equipment maintenance, replacement costs, high employee absenteeism and turnover, and increased cleaning costs.

Maintaining air quality is vital in any work environment. Dust extraction systems does that by removing particulate matter from the air and the environment. Dust is captured through devices such as capture hoods, duct systems and finally filtered by a dust collector through filters.

Industrial Dust Collectors

A dust collector is the essential type of equipment for controlling air pollution in industrial environments such as woodworking, agriculture, food processing, pharmaceuticals, metal manufacturing, mining, and chemical processing. A dust collector improves air quality in the workplace and meets environmental safety requirements. A dust collection system is designed to filter and remove hazardous dusts, and potentially harmful fumes.

There are several types of pollutants in the industry that vary in concentration and particle size. In addition, some types of dust are flammable or explosive. It is essential to know the properties of the dust to be treated. Therefore, the selection of a dust collector requires an in-depth analysis of the various factors to be considered and requires the intervention of an expert in the field.
