Exhaust air filtration &
heat recovery

for other applications

Your process is emissions- or energy-intensive — but doesn’t fit any standard category? That’s exactly where we start. KMA cleans exhaust air and recovers process heat where off-the-shelf solutions fail.

Your potential

Clean Air. Save Energy.

Our solutions go further.

Whether food, metal or a very specific process: wherever hot exhaust air is generated that is laden with oil, grease, smoke, dust or odours, the same potential is there — clean air, safe limit values and recovered energy.

These applications are just a small selection of the range of services we offer. KMA develops solutions for numerous other emission- and energy-intensive industrial processes. Challenge us — together we’ll develop an economical, effective solution.

Every project expands our knowledge. New applications and practical examples are added on an ongoing basis.

We put our trust in KMA

Solutions for food processing

Food: from A for alternative proteins to Z for zero fossil fuels.

Baking, roasting, frying, drying — in food processing, exhaust air is hot and laden with grease and odours. Traditionally, this energy goes unused up the stack, while thermal oxidation burns gas to get rid of it. KMA turns that around: we reliably separate aerosols, grease and odours — and bring the process heat back into your production. Without combustion of fossil fuels, with up to 98% less energy input.

Solutions for metal processing

Metal processing – from A for upsetting to Z for machining

Forming, machining, hardening, welding — metalworking generates oil and emulsion mist, smoke and fine dust that burden production hall air, equipment and limit values. KMA electrostatic precipitators separate these aerosols with high efficiency, self-clean via CIP, and return the heat from hot process exhaust air to the production hall or supply air. For die casting, foundry, melting furnaces and megacasting, we have our own deeply engineered solutions — here we show the breadth beyond that.

Solution for special applications

Special applications: Challenge us

Some tasks can’t be solved from a catalogue. As a specialist plant manufacturer, we develop exhaust air filtration and heat recovery precisely where standard technology fails with tough, sticky, heavily loaded or unusual exhaust air. You describe the process — we engineer the system, designed for your real-world situation.
