RECYCLING & SOLID WASTE
KEEPING ODORS AND CONTAMINATION UNDER CONTROL
All sorts of items can end up in recycling bins and garbage cans, but things like plastic packaging, glass bottles and metal cans don’t really produce odors by themselves. Most bad odors come from food waste or anything that’s biodegradable. Both the slow initial breakdown of organic substances and their subsequent consumption by microorganisms can produce an array of unpleasant-smelling chemical compounds. Waste’s footprint on the environment can also come from the pollutants generated during the recycling process or waste management.Waste management can be challenging due to the types of waste being handled or processed. The process itself can be harmful to the environment. Incineration, landfilling, waste processing, etc. can produce a myriad of odorous and potentially harmful air contaminants that need to be controlled.

INDUSTRY-LEADING PRODUCTS
SAAF™ Cassette HD
The SAAF Cassette HD is an energy-efficient upgrade over legacy gas phase media cassettes thanks to its improved fit and sealing integrity. It was designed for full media usage and is suitable for heavy-duty applications. This cassette can be used as a universal replacement for similar cassette designs.
SAAF™ Air Purification Systems
These are self-contained units with both gas-phase and particulate air. With two available options — simply recirculating air or recirculating air and pressurizing the room— they offer easy installation, an outstanding seal to prevent bypass and wasted energy and whisper-quiet operation.
SAAF™ Deep Bed Scrubbers
SAAF Deep Bed Scrubbers are a total filtration solution, providing the highest chemical media-to-air ratio for heavily polluted environments. Used in mission-critical and challenging industrial applications, these systems include our patent-pending system that locks final filters in place to form a positive seal against the SAAF Track.
SAAF™ PORTA-Scrubber
The SAAF PORTA-Scrubber is a heavy-duty, space-efficient, self-contained system for removing high concentrations of gaseous contaminants from low-volume exhausts. Offered in powered and non-powered versions, it’s an economical, easy-to-use solution designed to be virtually maintenance-free.
SAAF™ Reactivity Monitoring Coupons
SAAF Reactivity Monitoring Coupons provide critical information on average air reactivity so facilities can take action to protect electronics, equipment and processes. The system collects 30 days of data and is ideal for protected environments such as control rooms, data centers or archives.
SAAF™ Tech Tools
SAAF Tech Tools software makes it simple to choose a customized solution for your gas-phase application. The guided, problem-solving experience helps you select the optimal combination of equipment and media. It then provides a complete technical proposal.
SAAFShield®
SAAFShield technology products function together as a real-time reactivity monitoring system to show corrosion data. This can help facilities protect themselves against the expensive damage caused by corrosion in electronics such as data servers, control room equipment and other vital microelectronics.
