Newsletter 4: Emission Control for the Packaging and Plastics Industries

APC’s Ultra High-Efficiency Filter (UHF®) unit is a unique and well-proven device for controlling emissions in the packaging, plastic products, and roofing industries, particularly those with extrusion as part of the production process. Operating on different types of extrusion lines across the U.S., the UHF® Filter has successfully addressed emissions from a broad variety of plants in these industries, including:

  • rigid packaging
  • flexible packaging
  • TPO and PVC roofing
  • foam products
  • other PVC products
  • resin production
  • pultruded products
  • and more.

The UHF® Filter is designed to handle the sticky, oily, liquid and/or solid condensed fumes emitted from these processes and does not have problems with plugging or blinding when used to treat such emissions.

UHF Filter

Particularly suited for controlling emissions from the plastics and packaging industries, the UHF® Filter:

  • ensures compliance with opacity/visible emission limits
  • provides removal efficiencies up to 99+%
  • has lower capital and operating costs (lifecycle cost) than other options for these applications
  • requires less maintenance than other options
  • allows media changeouts without any process downtime
  • allows different filter media grades to be used to optimize cost while ensuring compliance.

The UHF® Filter is an efficient and cost-effective solution for emission control in the plastics, packaging and roofing industries.
