Compressed air treatment can remove unnecessary pollutants and provide the purity of compressed air required for applications, such as standard instrument air, technically oil-free compressed air, sterile ultrapure air, or medical breathing air. Many industries have specific air quality requirements that are constrained by best practices or regulations.
The purpose of compressed air treatment is to ensure continuous and trouble free operation of applications using compressed air, minimize downtime, unplanned maintenance and repair work, and remove specific pollutants that may be harmful to the product.
Moreover, most importantly, compressed air treatment actively promotes environmental protection as well as occupational health and safety. Liquid oil droplets, fine oil mist, solid particles contaminated by oil, and unpleasant oil vapors, which occur on-site during the compressed air production process, can be completely eliminated, thus not polluting the local environment.
The compressed air processing system consists of several continuous processing sections, called the processing chain, which process compressed air in stages to achieve the required purity.
