Abstract
Some of the most harmful industrial emissions are produced by the installations, reactors, galvanic baths, and loading machines used in electroplating. The objective of this research is to develop operational, efficient and cost-effective solutions to ensure the required microclimate in electroplating shops. Operational costs for two alternative design solutions for electroplating shop ventilation were calculated: two-sided on-board suction, and on-board suction with deflation. We found that local exhaust ventilation of the on-board blow-offs of electroplating baths (instead of standard double-side suction) is one of the most effective energy-saving solutions. By reducing the consumption of re-moved air, capital costs for equipment and materials and operating costs for thermal and electrical energy are reduced.
