JONESBORO, Ark., August 4, 2022 —An article by Camfil APC is the feature cover piece in the August 2022 annual Dust Collection issue of Powder & Bulk Solids. How to Use Cartridge Dust Collector Filters to Maintain Indoor Air Quality, Reduce Costs, authored by project manager Stephanie Schales, provides information on selecting and maintaining cartridge dust collector filters to ensure good
Jonesboro, AR, July 18, 2022 – Camfil APC is excited to announce a series of marketing activities leading up to the opening of our new facility on Nestle Road in Jonesboro, Ark. We have gathered hours of video footage including drone flyovers and time-lapse videos of the deconstruction and construction of Camfil APC facilities since the tornado that touched down in spring of 2020. By documenting a
The WHO declared COVID-19 “a Public Health Emergency of International Concern” on January 30, 2020. Just days after WHO’s announcement, Camfil – a world leader in air filtration – set up a multidisciplinary supply chain task force, made up of representatives from key areas within the company.
In the past nearly 60 years the mission has been to deliver solutions for indoor air quality to protect people, processes and the environment. The Camfil Sustainaibility Report 2021 is published.
Camfil is one of the first manufacturing companies, in its sector, globally and in Sweden, that has successfully been accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standard. This standard is the main international standard for general requirements when it comes to testing laboratories and calibration laboratories. Camfil help people breathe cleaner air. Clean Air - a human right - is the daily focused mission.
Riverdale, New Jersey, June 9, 2021 - Camfil's work and commitment towards sustainability reached new horizons in 2020 with ongoing actionable projects such as product life cycle assessment (LCA), reduced waste generation, and reduced carbon emission as we continuously aim towards energy-efficient solutions. The research and development work done by Camfil’s air filtration experts generates value
The focus of the series revolves around Camfil’s mission to protect people, processes, and the environment by defining, developing, and delivering solutions that combine clean air with energy efficiency sustainably and profitably. We are collaborating with industry experts, activists, practitioners from leading institutes and companies about the importance of clean air and how it can be harnessed
As you know, pulse cleaning is a critical technology to help your dust collectors maintain a steady airflow (CFM) and run at peak efficiency. When the pressure drop reaches a certain level, pulse-cleaning systems send quick bursts of compressed air back through the filters. Accumulated dust is blasted off and into the hopper, helping maintain a stable pressure drop and increasing filter life.
It’s easy to understand why dust collectors are necessary for manufacturing and processing facilities that produce dust and fumes. However, when it comes to dust collector filters, many believe that they can order the lowest cost filter cartridges that fit their dust collectors. Unfortunately, by using dust collector filters that are not designed to handle the specific dusts you produce, you can b
Many pharmaceutical companies consider the continuous solid dose manufacturing process an improvement over batch production. That’s because the continuous process simultaneously charges and discharges ingredients and finished product. Batch manufacturing, on the other hand, is a step-by-step process, and it can process only one batch at a time.
Most manufacturers understand that dust collection systems are vital, though costly pieces of capital equipment. However, industry experts estimate that 80% of all dust collectors do not operate satisfactorily in the plant or facility where they are installed.
A high-quality dust collector that’s been properly designed and installed for your specific operation should provide peace of mind that the air in your facility is safe to breathe. It should also provide hassle-free performance. But that doesn’t mean you can ignore the mechanics for the life of the collector.
There are many brands on the market and options to consider when purchasing new filter cartridges for your dust collection systems. Many filter manufacturers claim their products cost less than competing brands. Others claim they work better and last longer. However, without understanding how filter cartridges differ, it can be difficult to decide what’s best for your application.
Manufacturing and processing facilities across many different industries have one common challenge – containing the dangerous dusts. Operations that produce dust threaten the safety of workers, the facility and even customers who might encounter dust particles in the end product. While every type of dust has its own specific requirements and regulations, there are 3 important things ...
The processes involved in manufacturing batteries can release particles into the air – lead dust, nickel, cobalt, aluminum and other materials that are combustible and/or toxic. Though these dusts and fumes are generally emitted near process equipment, once in the air they disperse and eventually settle on equipment, floors, walls and other surfaces.
There are many paper manufacturing processes that generate dust and scrap including trim machines, die cut presses, shredders, balers and vacuum feed conveyors. Besides being a housekeeping nuisance, this dust is combustible, which is why facilities use industrial dust collectors. Most paper dust is classified as ST1 and is around 100Kst. Here are some important points to consider that can improve
Handling and milling grain, seed and feed are occupational hazards that expose workers to many serious and life-threatening situations. Dust-related dangers include allergies, respiratory injury, fire and explosion. Especially at risk are food and agricultural facilities that process, move, store and ship products like corn, oats, wheat, barley, sunflower seeds, rice, cotton seeds and soybeans.
Dust testing is important regardless of how long you’ve been producing the same type of dust or the age of your dust collection system. You may think that you have an understanding of the type of dust produced during your operations, but changes in equipment, regulations or products can mean that it’s time to have your facility’s dust evaluated.
Stockholm, Sweden, 1st December 2020 - Thriving towards sustainability, Camfil is motivated to find out the real environmental impact of its products. Therefore, IVL (Swedish Environmental Institute) has performed life cycle analysis (LCA) on the company's various bag filters. This work will determine the basis for Camfil's continued environmental work to reduce the products' CO2 footprint and hel
