VOCpuhdistus

VOCpuhdistus is a Finnish term that translates to VOC cleaning or VOC purification. It refers to processes and technologies used to remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from air or industrial emissions. VOCs are a group of carbon-containing chemicals that can easily evaporate into the air. They are released from a variety of sources, including industrial processes, paints, solvents, cleaning agents, and consumer products. Some VOCs can have negative impacts on human health and the environment, contributing to air pollution and the formation of ground-level ozone.

VOCpuhdistus aims to reduce or eliminate these harmful emissions. Various methods are employed, depending on the specific VOCs present and the concentration levels. Common techniques include adsorption, where VOCs are trapped onto a solid material like activated carbon; absorption, where VOCs are dissolved into a liquid; thermal oxidation, which burns the VOCs at high temperatures; and catalytic oxidation, which uses a catalyst to lower the temperature required for oxidation. The choice of VOCpuhdistus technology is crucial for compliance with environmental regulations and for improving indoor and outdoor air quality.
