VOC Abatement Equipment Considerations & Incentives for the Flexographic Industry

Flexographic Printing applications use excessive amounts of fuel  and chemicals in the manufacturing process, which in turn generates a substantial amount of solvent & hydrocarbon based emissions as well as CO2 and NOX (Nitrous Oxides).  Air quality agencies require that the release of HAPs (Hazardous Air Pollutants) and VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) as well as possible odorous emissions during the labeling process need to be captured and treated.

Ship & Shore offers the most energy efficient solution with the Clean-Tech RTO (Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer), capable of destroying over 99% of the HAPs and VOCs through the process of high temperature destruction with very little fuel consumption which also significantly reduces operating costs. Additionally, Ship & Shore has helped customers receive over 7 million dollars in rebates and incentives to date towards the purchase of new or upgraded equipment which can significantly reduce capital cost.

Solutions are custom designed to meet each client’s process demands, compliance requirements and budget.  New equipment, upgrades or retrofits of existing equipment can also qualify for rebates as well as reduce operating and capital costs significantly and a team of expert engineers offer exceptional expertise and service in designing the most cost efficient systems.

Here are questions to consider in purchasing, updating and or qualifying for rebates and incentives that could reduce the capital costs significantly:

• Are you expanding or purchasing new laminators or presses?
• Are there existing laminators or presses in operation? Are they being replaced?
• Are there existing oxidizers or air pollution abatement equipment in use?
• Will this be a solvent less application? Or is there a possibility of solvent usage?
• Is there a change or increase in solvent usage or the way it is processed?
• How will new equipment change or improve efficiency?

HOW SHIP & SHORE ASSISTS IN THE REBATE & INCENTIVE PROCESS

• Research if incentives are available for equipment and plant location.
• Assign a project engineer to gather data, equipment specs and consumption.
