Aerospace
Indusco Environmental has been working with the aerospace industry from the time of our inception. There are many aspects of the aerospace industry for which we can provide services. For instance, we have helped large companies dispose of rockets through incineration. Many aerospace companies use our services for hard chrome plating airplane appliances and accessories such as turbines.
We can provide industrial fans for hangers and warehouse structures. In addition to these services, we can help with your air pollution needs concerning the aerospace industry. Some of the more common effluents associated with the aerospace industry are hydrocarbons and nitrogen compounds, generally a byproduct incomplete combustion, but also emanating from other point sources. Air pollution in the aerospace industry was overlooked for many years, but now as our understanding of pollution and its impact increases, new laws are being passed in order control standards. There are many benefits to you as the customer for controlling your aerospace related air pollution, such as:
- Elimination or reduction of air contaminants
- Elimination or reduction of fire hazards
- Economic savings through recovery of valuable products
As was mentioned earlier, the most common air pollution problem concerning the aerospace industry is hydrocarbon vapors. We can help with these emissions as they are released from a variety of point sources, such as:
- Vertical or cylindrical fixes roof tanks
- Conservation tanks
- Lifter roof tanks
- Floating roof tanks
- Low-pressure tanks
- Aerosol emissions
The release of odor is closely related to the evaporation and filling operations associated with storage tanks. The concentration of odor is not directly proportional to the amount of vapor released; some particularly heavy vapors may be very noticeable at concentrations as small as 1 to 5 ppm. These heavy vapors usually contain high concentrations of Sulphur and Nitrogen.
