In Focus: News and Views from the Coatings Community
To modify a popular aphorism, one organism's pollution can be another organism's meal ticket. And if PPG has its way, a lot of hungry microbes will be eating heartily.
PPG Total Service Solutions (Troy, MI) has partnered with Bio Reaction Industries to offer the Greencell bio-oxidation system to coatings users and other manufacturers. The system can reduce VOC emissions and odors generated by the finishing process by up to 95%, PPG says. Further, the Greencell bio-oxidation system can also cut operating costs by 15 to 55% and lower capital costs by 20 to 35% compared to conventional incineration systems.
