Activated Carbon Odour Control: Aqoza’s Innovative Solutions for Effective Air Quality Management

  In various industries, managing unpleasant odours is a critical concern that affects not only operational efficiency but also public health and community relations. Activated carbon has emerged as a leading technology for odour control, providing effective solutions to mitigate the release of harmful gases. Aqoza, a specialist in engineered odour control systems, offers a range of activated carbon solutions designed to tackle odour issues across multiple sectors, including wastewater treatment, food processing, and petrochemical industries. Understanding Activated Carbon Activated carbon is a highly porous material with a large surface area, typically exceeding 1000 m²/g. This unique property allows it to adsorb a wide variety of odorous compounds, making it an effective choice for air purification. The adsorption process involves the trapping of molecules on the surface of the activated carbon, thereby removing them from the air. This mechanism is particularly beneficial in app...

Which Are The Gases Causing Corrosion Of Electronics In Data Centres

  Electronic components are made of metallic and non-metallic materials that are prone to corrosion. If left unchecked, electronic corrosion can harm electronic components such as film disks and edge connectors in data centres. Film disks store data, and if corroded the stored information could get lost. Edge connectors are made of copper or are gold-plated over a copper substrate and are situated on the circuit boards. Corrosion can easily lead to disruption in the connector points and affect data transfer. In the case of control rooms or server rooms all metals are susceptible to corrosion in a similar way. Corrosion in electronics is mainly caused by Acidic gases. The major ones include: ● Hydrogen sulphide (H2S)  ● Sulphur and nitrogen oxides (SOX, NOX)  ● Inorganic chlorine compounds (Cl2, ClO2, HCL)  ● Photochemical entities (O3)  Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) H2S will produce HS- ions which will interact with silver and copper. When HS- ions interact with Silve...
