In the context of exhaust gas emission analysis for pharmaceutical and chemical enterprises, two key characteristics stand out. First, these industries often experience irregularities in their waste gas generation processes due to varying production schedules and chemical reactions. Second, the volume of waste gas emitted can fluctuate significantly, making it challenging to manage consistently. To address these challenges, this paper explores effective treatment strategies tailored specifically for pharmaceutical companies, aiming to help them meet environmental regulations and reduce their ecological footprint.
The pharmaceutical industry is one of the largest contributors to pollution in China. With the government's emphasis on the "Blue Sky Defense War," stricter enforcement of environmental regulations has been implemented across the country. As a result, pharmaceutical companies are now facing greater scrutiny and pressure to improve their waste gas treatment systems. According to data from the Ministry of Environmental Protection, although the pharmaceutical sector contributes less than 3% to the national GDP, it accounts for nearly 6% of total pollution emissions. This discrepancy highlights the urgent need for more efficient and sustainable waste gas management solutions.
Despite the growing awareness of environmental issues and increased regulatory oversight, many pharmaceutical and chemical companies still struggle with proper waste gas control. Some have even been forced to shut down due to non-compliance with emission standards. In response, advanced technologies such as high-temperature plasma incineration have emerged as promising solutions for treating complex and hazardous industrial waste gases.
Nanjing Yongyan Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. has developed an independent high-temperature plasma technology that offers an effective and environmentally friendly solution for pharmaceutical enterprises. This technology is particularly suitable for treating waste gases with high organic content, complex compositions, and potentially flammable or explosive components. It is also ideal for handling gases containing particulate matter, oil, and moisture, especially when emissions occur continuously in large volumes.
When designing a treatment plan, several factors must be considered: the composition of the exhaust gas (such as presence of moisture, solids, or oil), its concentration (high or low), and the nature of the emission (continuous or intermittent). For instance, industries like gravure printing, painting, chemical synthesis, petrochemicals, flavor manufacturing, and spice processing would benefit from high-temperature plasma incineration.
To enhance the effectiveness of the system, a secondary glass fiber filter is installed at the intake of the treatment equipment to capture dust particles and prevent them from entering the main reactor. The high-temperature plasma incineration process involves a high-voltage power supply (100,000 volts) operating at 30 KHz, which rapidly heats the waste gas to over 3,000 degrees Celsius within the reactor. Under the combined effects of extreme heat and high voltage, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are ionized and completely decomposed into harmless substances such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, and carbon.
This method not only achieves a removal rate of over 98% for harmful substances but also meets national emission standards. The system is designed with a stainless steel structure that is corrosion-resistant, safe, and easy to maintain. It features intelligent remote control capabilities, eliminating the need for full-time operators.
Compared to traditional RTO (Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer) technology, which relies on natural gas and often leads to high energy consumption and carbon emissions, high-temperature plasma incineration offers numerous advantages:
1. **Continuous operation**: Unlike RTO, which operates intermittently, high-temperature plasma technology allows for uninterrupted treatment, making it ideal for applications such as waste incineration and gravure printing.
2. **Broad applicability**: It can handle high-concentration, complex, and potentially explosive waste gases, including those with significant amounts of water, solid particles, and oil.
3. **No natural gas required**: This eliminates carbon emissions and reduces operational costs.
4. **Low energy consumption**: A 20,000 m³/h system requires only 46 kW of power, compared to 90 kW for an equivalent RTO system.
5. **High energy efficiency**: The discharge temperature is only slightly higher than the inlet temperature, indicating minimal energy loss.
6. **Effective dioxin destruction**: Dioxins and other hard-to-degrade pollutants are fully decomposed during the process.
7. **No ozone emissions**: Unlike low-temperature plasma systems, this technology does not produce harmful ozone.
8. **Cost-effective**: High-temperature plasma equipment is generally less expensive and has lower operating costs than traditional RTO systems.
By adopting this innovative approach, pharmaceutical and chemical companies can not only comply with environmental regulations but also contribute to a cleaner and more sustainable future.
