Dust treatment in the pet care sector
In this case study, we present the solution implemented for an Italian manufacturer of eco-friendly litter for cats and small animals. During the production process, large quantities of dust are generated, requiring efficient extraction and filtration systems compliant with ATEX regulations to ensure operational safety, production continuity, and a healthy working environment.
Problems
- Generation of large quantities of dust during litter production
- Presence of potentially explosive dust
- Need to ensure the safety of operators and equipment
- Requirement to maintain low dust concentrations within the production areas
- Need for a high-efficiency system with reduced operating costs
Technical features HJL CART ATEX:
- HJL-CART-S-6V-ATEX cartridge filter
- Airflow rate: 7,500 m³/h
- No. 60 antistatic polyester filter cartridges
- Automatic compressed-air pulse cleaning system
- ATEX-certified fan
- Integrated explosion relief panels
- ATEX rotary valve for dust discharge
- Electrical control panel installed outside ATEX zones
- Complete extraction ducting system with exhaust stack
HFiltration designed and installed a complete ATEX-certified extraction and filtration system dedicated to the litter production line. The system consists of a cartridge filter with automatic compressed-air cleaning, an ATEX-certified fan, a complete extraction ducting network, and a dedicated capture hood. The solution was engineered to provide high filtration efficiency, low pressure drop, and safe handling of potentially explosive dust.
