Emissions Abatement

Engineered solutions for abating emissions are an inescapable necessity for the majority of industrial facilities.  Requirements to abate polluting emissions from process vent stacks, eliminate odours, prevent noise nuisance, or treat the release of wastewater are typically driven by legislative requirements and can represent a significant cost to a business in terms of the procurement and commissioning of the abatement plant and its operation and maintenance.

What is the benefit?

Process optimisation is a key consideration for all industrial operations.  Poorly optimised production processes can result in increased energy consumption, excessive waste generation and unnecessary emissions to air, water and land.  An optimised process is one where emissions are eliminated or minimised with the benefit of significantly reduced disposal or treatment costs.

In addition, where an emission or release is unavoidable, the selection and installation of the appropriate abatement technology is of paramount importance with respect to cost to the business and statutory compliance.
