Extechnology presents low carbon odour and grease control technology

[archiexpo]

Extechnology's patented EXE 12 UV-C technology is designed to offer a low carbon solution to the rising number of complaints regarding nuisance odours from commercial kitchen extract systems. With the EXE 12 unit's UV-C tubes mounted outside the ductwork the tubes pose no resistance to air flow allowing air movement systems to maintain their efficiency.Used in a variety of air cleaning applications for more than 20 years, UV-C technology works by oxidising the odour and grease particulate, permanently destroying and altering the compounds. Comprising 12 UV-C tubes, the Extechnology EXE 12 unit controls odour and grease by producing ozone a powerful oxidant which interacts with most pollutants such as odour, bacteria, mould, mildew and grease. The unit is specially designed to maximise the generation of ozone through its UV-C tubes in combination with the EXE 12's patented titanium plated walls. The ozone produced in the Extechnology unit is introduced into the extract system and a breakdown of the polluted molecules results in permanent oxidation and a conversion of the grease and odour molecules into harmless compounds, such as water vapour and carbon dioxide. “Extract systems are one of the largest energy consumers in commercial kitchens. In the current financial climate, restaurants and hotels are increasingly focusing on operating costs which is driving them away from using carbon filters which demand larger energy consuming fans to drive kitchen extract systems. Carbon filters also need to be replaced on a monthly basis which can prove expensive, possibly upwards of £500 a month. In contrast the only maintenance required by our EXE 12 system is tube replacement every 8000 hours or once a year,” explains Cian Flood, director at Extechnology. The major difference with the patented Extechnology application when compared to other traditional inline UV-C units on the market, is that the UV-C tubes are mounted outside the ductwork or canopy in a separate, self-contained chamber. This chamber is linked to the kitchen extract ductwork or canopy via two spigots 90mm in length and 20mm in diameter. The location of the UV-C tubes outside the ductwork makes the unit significantly easier to install than inline applications, especially when retrofitting.
