NATURALSORB GREASE FILTRATION - BACKGROUND and PERFORMANCE
BACKGROUND
Each year, fires occur in commercial kitchens during cooking processes adjacent to air extract systems. When heat and flames are able to enter the extract hoods, the grease load in the duct beyond the hood is often heavy such that following ignition, the fire is able to spread rapidly and violently to remote and often inaccessible areas of the building. The cost to life and property is considerable despite the sophistication of known fire suppression systems.
A safe low cost and simple means to substantially reduce the grease load inside commercial kitchen extract systems would have considerable merit, especially if it could be easily retrofitted within existing kitchens.
DESCRIPTION
NATURALSORB Grease absorbers are a disposable filter media comprising a flexible open textured blanket made entirely from sheep wool fibre.
The fibrous blanket has been designed to harness the strong and unique attraction between grease and wool and create a filtration media to entrap and remove grease droplets from an air stream with quite superior effectiveness. Incorporated into the design are reliable visual indicators by which the user can judge when to replace the Grease Filter before the grease load exceeds certain deliberate limits.
