Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is widely used for insulation, packaging, construction, and impact protection. Its manufacturing also creates a specific air-quality challenge: controlling VOC emissions, primarily pentane, released during processing.
An RTO can look perfectly normal from the outside while wear, fouling, misalignment, or calibration issues are developing inside. That’s why a strong preventive maintenance program goes beyond checking whether the equipment is running it verifies how well the entire system is operating.
Food and beverage manufacturing can generate VOCs, odors, particulate, fats, and aerosols requiring effective control. Abatement must consider both the pollutant and exhaust characteristics.
An RTO can continue running while its performance slowly moves in the wrong direction. Small changes in sensors, dampers, airflow, combustion, or mechanical components may not cause an immediate shutdown but they can increase fuel use, reduce reliability, and create compliance concerns over time.
As manufacturers across the United States facegrowing pressure to modernize operations, reduce emissions and improve energy efficiency, Ship & Shore Environmental (S&SE) is helping industrial facilities identify and access available incentive opportunities tied to air pollution control upgrades, energy efficiencyinitiatives and sustainability projects.
Ship & Shore Environmental today announced increasing demand for industrial emissions control and environmental engineering solutions as manufacturers navigate growing sustainability, battery recycling, sustainable materials production, and operational compliance challenges.
Ship & Shore Environmental integrates engineered solutions such as Regenerative Thermal Oxidizers (RTOs), Direct-Fired Thermal Oxidizers (DFTOs), and scrubbers alongside boilers.
Ship & Shore Environmental’s aftermarket services include washouts, bakeouts, and preventive maintenance helps facilities sustain performance, reduce costs, and ensure long-term compliance.
By combining engineering expertise with hands-on support, SSE helps facilities improve air quality, enhance energy efficiency, ensure compliance, and reduce operational costs.
