Selection framework

How we turn automotive & e-mobility exhaust data into a treatment train

The recommended configuration is built around the actual production process, not a generic industry label. This is especially important when one site has multiple exhaust headers, recipes or operating modes.

Common treatment challenges

  • Booth exhaust with paint mist pretreatment needs
  • High airflow paint shops
  • Compliance across multi-booth facilities

Data we request

  • Exhaust source, airflow and operating schedule
  • VOC/pollutant analysis, concentration range and LEL information
  • Temperature, humidity, dust, mist and corrosive components
  • Existing collection or pretreatment equipment
  • Emission target, layout, utilities and shutdown constraints

Engineering decisions

  • Whether streams should be segregated, balanced or treated together
  • Which pretreatment protects downstream equipment
  • Whether concentration, direct oxidation, recovery or polishing is appropriate
  • Materials, safety interlocks, monitoring and maintenance access
  • Where recovered heat or utilities can be integrated
Industry treatment guide

Recommended path for automotive & e-mobility exhaust

This is a decision framework based on the supplied product and project material. The final train changes with measured chemistry, operating patterns and site constraints.

Common emission sources

  • Vehicle/component spray booths
  • Flash-off and bake ovens
  • Adhesive/sealant application
  • E-mobility component coating lines
Primary train

Paint-mist filtration → zeolite concentration → RTO or catalytic oxidation

Multi-booth facilities commonly create high airflow with changing load. Concentration is evaluated after robust paint-mist protection, then the destruction stage is matched to solvent chemistry and production uptime.

  1. 01Survey each booth and oven source
  2. 02Set pressure-balance and capture requirements
  3. 03Protect downstream media from overspray
  4. 04Concentrate or directly oxidize based on load
  5. 05Integrate controls, heat recovery and expansion allowance
Alternative train

Direct RTO

Consider for higher-load exhaust where the heat balance supports direct thermal oxidation and the site can accommodate the equipment and safety scope.

Industry FAQ

Process-specific questions

What data is needed from a paint shop?

Booth count, airflow by operating mode, paint/solvent SDS, concentration profile, temperature, mist loading, planned expansion and production schedule.

Can the system be expanded later?

Expansion should be designed in at the start through duct allowance, controls architecture, pad space and capacity strategy.
