Air Pollution Control Available in any Colour You Like…..as Long as it’s Green

Unlike the Model T Ford, which Henry Ford famously said was, ‘available in any colour so long as it is black’, environmental equipment from Spooner Anguil (UK) really is available in a variety of different colours. Whether to blend with surroundings, meet a corporate colour or simply to be in vogue, the only essential requirement of any environmental installation is that it must be ‘green’.

Yorkshire based specialist paper makers, Weidmann Whiteley used to ship their paper to the USA to be printed with a diamond pattern before being shipped back to Europe for finishing. When a print line became available within the group the opportunity was seized to bring the printing process in-house, safeguarding existing UK jobs.

However, the print line required an air pollution abatement system to allow it meet EU regulations and be operated in the UK. Turning to local supplier, Spooner Anguil, an economic and environmentally friendly thermal oxidiser system designed to reduce the harmful VOC emissions was engineered and manufactured at Spooner’s headquarters down the road in Ilkley.

The 2 chamber RTO is designed with 97% thermal energy recovery to dramatically reduce gas consumption to only 3% of the total energy required and with more than 99% destruction efficiency the system complies with the solvent emission directive. An additional feature included in the RTO was Supplemental Fuel Injection (or SFI ) which offers a 25% additional saving on the gas consumption compared to operating a gas burner.

The Spooner Anguil Partnership formed in 2008 when Spooner Industries Ltd became the European licensee of Anguil Environmental Systems Inc, USA. Anguil has over 30 years of experience providing VOC and HAP abatement technologies to companies around the world.
