Exhaust air from catering establishments, such as restaurants or kitchens, must be discharged in an effective and safe manner to ensure good air quality both indoors and outdoors. The usual and usually required method is to discharge the exhaust air via the roof.
In many cases, however, exhausting air via the roof is extremely complex, in some cases it is not permitted by the preservation order, or it is technically or legally impossible. As a result, many a catering concept is in danger of failing because of this requirement.
oxytec offers the technological alternative to exhaust air over the roof: With advanced, highly effective cleaning technologies, we free the air from grease, aerosols and odours before it enters the exhaust air ducts.
Because there are no more loads, the exhaust air may also be discharged to the side of the building, e.g. into pedestrian areas. Exhaust air purification is even possible for front cooking stations in the guest area.
Highly effective, multi-stage grease separators that are easy to clean already get the most out.
Use ultraviolet light and ozone to break down aerosols and thus neutralise them.
The exhaust air is brought into a high energy state. All organic compounds are converted into gas and finally neutralised at the downstream catalyst.
With the purifying power of water, suspended matter is washed out of the air and the air is cooled at the same time.
Even blue smoke is no problem. With electrostats, the harmful components can be almost completely eliminated.
After the renovation of an older high-rise building, a restaurant could be opened on the first floor. The exhaust air escapes from the side of the building without passers-by hearing or smelling anything.
Conducting the exhaust air over the roof would have been technically extremely complex and thus practically impossible.
Catering concepts in shopping centres, airports, railway stations, office buildings only become possible when the exhaust air problems are solved. As a long-standing partner of the catering industry, oxytec usually finds a solution.
