Applications

The wood products industry includes medium density fiberboard (MDF), oriented strand board (OSB) or particleboard plants where wood chips or fibers are treated with various chemicals to produce a wood product. Typically, the flue gas is first treated with a cyclone to knock out large particles and fibers, followed by a scrubber to control acid gases and sub-micron particulate/mist before being treated in an oxidizer of some design where non-condensibles are removed. Our expertise is in cleaning the gas of all...

The processes that are taken to prevent wood rot fall under the definition of wood preservation or timber treatment. There are a number of different chemical preservatives and processes that can extend the life of wood, timber, wood structures or engineered wood. These generally increase the durability and resistance from being destroyed by insects or fungus and/or allow the use of wood structures in wet or underwater conditions (marine grade wood).

The recycling of wood has a very important role in the reuse of the same for industrial purposes or use for the production of renewable energy. In both cases the quality of the grinding and the purity of the material is fundamental, which must be free of metals and other contaminants. The possibility to use shredders, grinders or granulators to deal with individual necessities allows Forrec to develop solutions that are suitable for all types of wood: •Production waste •Waferboards •Logs •Branches •Pallets •Oversiz...

Wood products are manufactured by bonding wood material (e.g., veneer, fibers, particles, and strands) or agricultural fiber, typically with resin under heat and pressure. A number of pollutants are emitted from wood product manufacturing processes – acetaldehyde, acrolein, formaldehyde, methanol, phenol, and propionaldehyde – and abatement and product recovery are required.

One of the problems arising in wood processing and production of popular materials based on wood, such as plywood, wood-chip and wood-fiber materials (chipboard, hardboard, OSB) is removing harmful substances from the air. Emissions from these industries are characterized primarily by the presence of phenol and formaldehyde, and the level of discharge is significant, up to 100 000 m3/hour of contaminated air.

We provide explosion protection for wood processing factories where wood waste and dust pose a hazard. Various wood processing technologies show that flammable wood waste or dust accumulates in these facilities. In terms of evaluating the risk of explosion, finely sedimented dust is hazardous and in the event that this finely sedimented dust suspends and is connected to an ignition source, and explosion will occur.

Wood wastes include woods from forestry, railways – sleepers, telecoms – telephone poles, timber manufacturing processes and the construction industry. Many of these types of wood tend to be contaminated with chemicals and other materials. This contamination can make the waste wood difficult to use in traditional biomass to energy processes and potentially hazardous to the environment. Our Gasplasma® energy from waste technology is able to transform efficiently the organic biomass into a pure, hydrogen-rich...

No matter where wood chips come from, whether it is hard or soft wood, chipboard, MDF, plywood, wood shavings, saw dust or swarf: volume can be reduced by up to 90 %. This is particularly attractive to the furniture industry, saw mills and cabinetmaking. With briquette presses from WEIMA, now valuable wood waste can be processed to compact briquettes and sold or used as an own heating source. In general, briquettes have a high calorific value, much higher than regular firewood and comparable to brown coal brought...
