Clean Air & Odour Control for the Food & Beverage Industry
Cooking, frying, brewing and rendering can release strong odours, oil mist and steam, alongside solvent-like organics from flavourings. Ravebo designs and builds tailored wet scrubber systems and mist abatement that keep air clean, protect workers and meet environmental permits.
Why emission & odour control matters in food processing
Hygiene, neighbourhood odour control and worker safety define the sector. Proper abatement prevents complaints, protects equipment against corrosion and keeps production compliant.
-
Hygiene & product quality
Avoid cross-contamination and sticky deposits. -
Neighbour relations
Reduce nuisance odours around the facility. -
Regulatory compliance
Meet local permit conditions and odour requirements. -
Worker protection
Capture oil mist and steam for safer workplaces.
Key challenges in Food & Beverage
From odorous organics to sticky aerosols, food production poses unique air treatment challenges that require robust, tailored solutions.
Top challenges
-
Odorous organics
Aldehydes/ketones, sulfur notes, fermentation CO₂/ethanol. -
Oil & grease aerosols
From frying/cooking lines; sticky deposits. -
Steam & condensate loads
Need for robust separation and drains. -
CIP chemicals
NaOH, HNO₃, peracetic acid; material compatibility.
Ravebo solutions for Food & Beverage
We configure single or multi-stage scrubbers with the right chemistry and separation to handle odours, organics, steam and aerosols — clean, safe and compliant.
Odour abatement chemistry
Alkali absorption and oxidising stages for volatile organics/sulfur notes; polishing options where needed.
Venturi & demisting
High-energy venturi for oil/grease aerosols, followed by packed bed and high-efficiency mist eliminators.
Hygienic construction
PP, PVC-C, FRP or stainless (304/316L) depending on chemistry; cleanable internals and access for inspection.
Water & effluent management
Optimised recirculation, blowdown handling and monitoring (pH/ORP/conductivity) for stable operation.
Frying line odour & mist control
A snacks producer experienced odour complaints and greasy deposits around the exhaust stack. Ravebo delivered a venturi + packed-bed system with demisters and alkali/oxidation chemistry.
- Significant odour reduction at stack
- Visible plume eliminated and cleaner surroundings
- Stable uptime with easy maintenance
