Its dedicated German-speaking sales managers are ready to discuss your company’s purification needs. 

This client manufactures peptides and lipids for APIs, requiring the removal of various solvent VOCs after the preliminary production stage. Concentrations vary, so an adaptable solution is important. The exhaust air is passed first through a condenser, an acidic scrubber and an alkaline scrubber. Two DESOTEC filters then polish the airstream before it is safely discharged. DESOTEC handles all carbon off-site, keeping pharma plants pristine and dust-free. 

This client manages liquid waste, industrial wastewater and process water for customers. It uses a DESOTEC MOBICON filter to purify wastewater of the toxic substance phenol, commonly found in waste from the chemical and petrochemical sectors. The company is pleased with the effectiveness of DESOTEC’s solutions, which reduce phenol to very low levels so the wastewater can be safely discharged to a WWTP.

The paint shop at this renowned piano manufacturer has four spray booths for coatings that generate vented air emissions containing a range of VOCs in varying concentrations. These emissions are channelled discontinuously at a flow rate of 80 000 m³/h to two DESOTEC AIRCON V-XL filters, which bring down VOC levels to well below the limit of 20 mg/m³. The manufacturer is thus able to meet its green goals while making around 2 000 world-class pianos every year. 

A well-known automotive manufacturer is a regular DESOTEC client, installing filters across multiple sites and countries. At this German plant, it uses a DESOTEC MOBICON filter to remove AOX from process wastewater. The flow rate is 25 m³/h and continuous, while the concentration of AOX is 0.64 mg/L. The MOBICON filter brings this level right down so the company can safely discharge the wastewater. Carbon waste handling is included in DESOTEC’s full-service solution, enabling the client to focus on what it does best: producing its world-famous vehicles.
