How are they treated?
Based on all the site factors, John Cockerill Environment determines the optimal treatment solution that will meet the economic and technical constraints of industry and public bodies.Our teams use different technologies, alone or in combination:
- Biofiltration
- Gas scrubbing
- AC filtration
- Thermal oxidation
Which pollutants do we treat?
- Sulfur compounds: hydrogen sulfide, mercaptans…
- Nitrogen compounds: ammonia, amines
- Volatile organic compounds (VOC): aldehydes, ketones, esters, hydrocarbons, etc.
John Cockerill Environment possesses its own olfactory expertise center (dynamic method) in order to characterize odors and their effects on human perception. A tool which represents a major advantage for research projects in the domain of odor measurement, whether to optimize the functionalities of an existing installation or to evaluate the effectiveness of odor-removal measures envisaged according to the different technologies employed.
