CSM "First of a
Kind" Catalytic Oxidizer Cleans the Air in Ireland
Kodak Cork
is a prominent manufacturer of WRITABLECD compact disks in Ireland. The company is a
sterling example of the swift and substantial economic growth in Ireland that has powered
construction of new and expanding manufacturing plants for a broad variety
of exciting new products, including pharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals,
semiconductor chips, cosmetics and health products.
Ireland's extraordinary
growth in industrial capability is matched only by its unwavering
commitment to clean air. As a result, the need for continuous, efficient
and economical air pollution control solutions has grown tremendously.
Demonstrating
its own commitment to air purity in and around the seaside location of its
manufacturing facility in Youghal, County Cork, Kodak Cork turned
to CSM Worldwide, the company well known for supplying the most effective
air pollution control solutions around the world. The CSM solution: a
custom catalytic oxidation system using CSM's globally proven
halo-hydrocarbon catalyst, which destroys VOCs and airborne solvents in the
plant exhaust during manufacture of WRITABLECDs at a very high level of
efficiency and economy.
Most
important, this solution represented the culmination of cooperative efforts
between Kodak Cork and CSM and the Environmental Protection Agency of
Ireland to define the air pollution control system that would best fit this
leading-edge application. Key issues such as system design and control,
catalyst performance, VOC capture and emission monitoring were all
addressed.
The
CSM/Kodak Cork solution is just one of many air pollution control systems
custom-designed and installed by CSM throughout Europe - in Ireland, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Portugal. And another
affirmation of CSM's world-class reputation for quality, reliability and
support, equaled only by its reputation for the most cost-effective
solutions.
