Control of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC)  
   
 

Adsorption Systems (Adsorbers) are the most effective and economical equipments to remove the Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) from gas streams or to recover these compounds.

 

In an adsorber, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) passing through a bed of solid particles (adsorbent) are selectively held. The most widely used type of adsorbent is activated carbon.


To design an ;Activated Carbon Adsorber, the following design parameters should be considered:

temperature,

pressure,

VOC and particle concentration,

moisture, etc.  

     
  Bakon, for your special application, designs and constructs Adsorption Systems having efficiencies upto 99,9%.  
     
 

What does VOC mean?

 
 
 

Volatile Organic Compounds are alifatic or aromatic structured hydrocarbons. They have boiling points upto 250ºC and air pollution occurs with their atmospheric photochemical reactions.
