Installation of a bio-trickle bed reactor with a diameter of 4 m and a height of 15 m in the electronics industry, Styria

BIONIK – the partner for manufacturing, assembly and commissioning of exhaust gas and exhaust air purification systems

ASSEMBLY

BIONIK manufactures and supplies plant components and assembles turnkey plants on customers’ construction sites.

These works are subject to strict quality requirements in accordance to the specifications of the European Machinery Directive and the standards of the German Engineering Federation (VDMA) and the Association of German Engineers (VDI).

The partial or complete pre-assembly of exhaust gas purification plants in the BIONIK factory enables trial runs and tests before these plants are exported worldwide.
Maintenance work on an air scrubber for an industrial facility

BIONIK – Maintenance of exhaust gas and exhaust air purification systems

MAINTENANCE

During initial commissioning, competent BIONIK personnel set the operating parameters, adjust the extraction points and train the operating personnel.

In order to maintain the optimum functionality of the plants, BIONIK offers long-term inspection and service contracts.

The BIONIK range of services includes
• inspections to optimise the functionality of the
  exhaust air purification system
• metrological checks
• maintenance works
• replacement of filter materials
• supply, supplementation and replacement of spare and
  wear parts and operating materials
• remote maintenance to support plant operators
  in troubleshooting

To maintain the optimal functionality of the systems, BIONIK offers long-term inspection and service contracts

Inspections

BIONIK's expert personnel carry out regular technical inspections of the exhaust air and process gas cleaning systems.

For this purpose, BIONIK develops a specific inspection programme in consultation with the customer in order to obtain a detailed analysis of the state of maintenance and usablilty of the technical equipment.

The function of the entire plant as well as that of the individual components is examined.

As a result, BIONIK prepares a well-founded report with recommendations for all necessary measures to ensure continued proper operation.

Ongoing inspections are often required by law and serve several purposes:
• Monitoring of operating parameters
• Prevent breakdowns
• Inspect mechanical components
• Ensure compliance with emission limits
• Maintain biological activity in biological processes
• Monitor pollutants

In summary, inspections contribute to the operational reliability and efficiency of the treatment plants and ensure compliance with regulatory environmental requirements.
Preparations for replacing the filter material on a biofilter

BIONIK – Filter material replacement to maintain the performance of your air purification system

FILTER MATERIAL EXCHANGE

The filter material in the biofilter of a biological exhaust air purification system plays a central role in the biological purification of gaseous pollutants. Regular replacement of the filter material is therefore important for reliable system operation.
The micro-organisms responsible for the biological degradation of pollutants need a healthy environment to remain active. Over time, however, incompletely degraded pollutants accumulate in the filter material and, together with dead microorganisms or unwanted biofilms, reduce the efficiency of the degradation process.

New filter material has high air permeability to ensure adequate aeration of the microorganisms in the bioreactor. However, organic and inorganic degradation products and dust gradually accumulate in the filter material. As a result, the filter material loses its porosity and structure. Air flow through the filter bed is restricted, resulting in a higher pressure drop.

Replacing the filter material restores the efficiency and performance of the air purification system.

BIONIK advises on the selection of filter material and takes care of the professional installation in the biofilter as well as the disposal of the old biofilter material.

Conversion of a chemical scrubber to an environmentally friendly bio-trickle bed reactor in an oil mill in Lower Austria

BIONIK - Renewal, conversion and upgrading of exhaust gas and exhaust air purification systems

PLANT UPGRADES

More than 30 years of experience and a comprehensive range of measuring equipment are the tools BIONIK uses to carry out sound assessments of plants with limited functionality and to create strategies to improve the plant performance.

One example is the conversion of a chemical scrubber to a biotrickling filter at an oil mill in Austria. This significantly increases the separation efficiency and reduced its operating costs while maintaining the same air flow rate. Moreover, the required footprint of the equiment is reduced.

Other benefits of such a system upgrade are
• short return on investment
• eliminatuion of chemicals and thus minimising the risks
