Dust treatment in the paper industry

In this case study, we present the solution implemented for an Italian company operating in the paper industry, specialized in cutting cores for adhesive tape made of plastic and cardboard. The production process generates dust which, under certain conditions, can create potentially explosive atmospheres, making it necessary to install an ATEX-compliant extraction and filtration system capable of ensuring high safety and reliability standards.
