Air pollution
VOCs are silent killers
Air pollution refers to the presence of harmful substances in the air that we breathe. These substances can come from various sources, such as factories, cars and trucks, power plants, and natural events like wildfires. Among the most harmful air pollutants are volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
VOCs are chemical substances that easily turn into vapor or gas at room temperature. They are commonly found in many industrial processes and products, such as solvents, paints, adhesives, and cleaning supplies.
VOCs have negative effects on the environment and human health, such as polluting the air and spreading strong odors, and causing respiratory problems. Therefore, industrial companies are often required by law to limit the number of VOCs they release into the air.
Luper systems unburden industrial companies from their VOC emissions by providing effective, sustainable, and resilient air cleaning systems.
Our Technology
The strength of our technology is in the unique combination of features that allows for effective pollution control.
Efficiency
We break down VOCs into non-toxic compounds. Even at low concentrations, we can achieve high destruction levels of 95% - 99%.
Speed
We complete the destruction of VOCs quickly, typically within minutes, whereas biological processes can take much longer, hours or days. Carbon adsorption or thermal oxidation require a certain residence time to achieve the desired removal efficiency, which can also be longer than our systems.
High-concentration
We can handle high concentrations of VOCs, while biological methods can struggle with high VOC concentrations and may require additional treatment steps to reach the desired level of VOC removal. Carbon adsorption can also handle high VOC concentrations, but it can require frequent replacement or regeneration of the carbon, which can be costly.
Versatility
Our systems can be applied to a wide range of VOCs and other pollutants, whereas biological methods may be limited to specific types of compounds. Photocatalytic oxidation is also versatile but it can be less efficient.
Safety
Unlike some biological methods, we do not produce harmful by-products and do not require the use of hazardous chemicals. Thermal oxidation can produce harmful by-products such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulfur oxides (SOx).
Maintenance
Our systems require less maintenance than other methods, such as biological methods, which require microorganisms to be grown and sustained. Carbon adsorption also requires frequent replacement or regeneration of the carbon.
Environmental regulations
Our processes are in compliance with the strictest regulations regarding VOC emissions.
