Aerosol Demisting

Industrial processes generate fine aerosol mists that threaten air quality, equipment reliability, and regulatory compliance. These sub-micron droplets—often invisible yet highly corrosive—carry acid, oil, or particulate contaminants that can lead to visible plumes, fouling, and costly downtime.

Ecosystems Europe designs and delivers advanced aerosol demisting systems featuring Elessent® Brink® Fiber Bed Mist Eliminators, engineered to achieve up to 99.95% mist removal efficiency across a wide range of applications and industries.

Why it matters

Uncontrolled aerosol emissions cause:

Visible stack plumes that trigger environmental citations
Corrosion damage in ducts, heat exchangers, and catalysts
Odor emissions from sulfuric acid, amines, or VOCs
Product losses and contamination downstream

Meeting EU IED and BAT-AEL limits requires robust control of acid mists (H₂SO₄, HCl, HNO₃), oil smoke, and condensable organics. Aerosol demisting with Brink® fiber-bed technology ensures stable compliance and long-term operational efficiency.

Our aerosol demisting solutions

Brink® Fiber Bed Mist Eliminators

The Brink® Mist Eliminator is a high-efficiency aerosol capture system designed to remove fine droplets (<1 µm) from process gas streams. Its unique fiber-bed configuration captures aerosols through Brownian diffusion, interception, and impaction, ensuring removal of sub-micron particles that pass through mesh or vane systems.

Key Features:

Ultra-fine capture: 99.95% removal of sub-micron mists
Low pressure drop (ΔP): 50–150 Pa typical
Long service life: minimal plugging or re-entrainment
Stable performance: patented MECS® drainage layer for free liquid flow
Retrofit ready: compatible with existing scrubber or separator vessels

Applications

Our Brink® demisting systems operate reliably across sectors where acid mists, VOCs, or condensable aerosols are formed:

Sulfuric, nitric, and phosphoric acid production
Ammonium nitrate and fertilizer plants
Metallurgical refining and pickling lines
Hydrogen and battery manufacturing
Waste gas treatment, incineration, and flue gas desulfurization (FGD)

Each solution is tailored to process conditions—ensuring optimal gas–liquid contact, minimum maintenance, and verified emissions compliance.
