DESIGN, FABRICATION AND ANALYSIS OF FUME EXTRACTION AND FILTRATION EQUIPMENT

Abstract

Often, Human kind is permitted to inhale the emission of fumes is in the range of 2 to 3 mg/m3. However, it is the most challenging task for the human safety and environmental pollution. It induced to do the work for reducing the toxic content in the fumes released from chemical manufacturing, metal production process and metal joining process. Thus, the investigation carried out in this work to safeguard the human kind by introducing the new design of filter setup as layers. The filtration is done by using different filters, each having the tendency to absorb the toxic particles that are present in the fumes. The filters used are Silicone crystal, Alum filter and layer of cotton. This work helps the industry to reduce the particulate matter and heavy smoke produced by the fumes of metal joining process.
