Nozzles for odour control

Unpleasant odour is a common by-product of many chemical, food processing and industrial applications. Odour is caused by airborne particles or gases.  In order to remove odour causing particles a fine spray can be introduced which will either absorb or react with the particles to eliminate odours.

A number of different odour-fighting chemicals can be sprayed.  Regardless of the type of liquid being sprayed the ideal spray characteristics are the same; namely to deliver as great a surface area per volume of liquid sprayed as possible.  This is achieved by ensuring the spray is very finely atomised.
