Automotive Painting Workshop VOCs Treatment
Automotive Industry • Germany
Project Overview
Client Information
- Client: Major Automotive Manufacturer
- Industry: Automotive
- Location: Berlin, Germany
- Completed: June 2023
Project Highlights
- VOC removal efficiency: 98.5%
- Energy consumption reduced by 30% compared to previous system
- Compliance with EU emission standards (EU 2010/75/EU)
- Stable operation with minimal maintenance requirements
The Challenge
The automotive manufacturer was facing challenges with VOC emissions from their painting workshop, which were exceeding EU environmental standards. They needed an efficient treatment solution that could handle large air volumes with fluctuating VOC concentrations while minimizing energy consumption and operational costs.
The Solution
We implemented a customized Activated Carbon + RCO (Regenerative Catalytic Oxidation) system with a treatment capacity of 40,000 m³/h. The system included a pre-treatment section, activated carbon adsorption towers, and a catalytic combustion unit with heat recovery. The modular design allowed for easy integration into their existing production line with minimal downtime.
System Configuration
- Airflow capacity: 40,000 m³/h
- Activated carbon adsorption towers: 4 units
- Catalytic combustion temperature: 300-400°C
- Heat recovery efficiency: >90%
- PLC control system with remote monitoring
- Automatic carbon regeneration system
The Results
-
VOC removal efficiency: 98.5%
-
Energy consumption reduced by 30% compared to previous system
-
Compliance with EU emission standards (EU 2010/75/EU)
-
Stable operation with minimal maintenance requirements
-
Improved working environment for employees
-
Reduced carbon footprint through energy recovery
