Shopping centers treat exhaust air from food courts with Mellifiq ozone systems
Introduction.
Sustainable and efficient ozone oxidation solution to treat exhaust air from multiple restaurants
This time, we are helping out a client who is one of the largest shopping center owners in the world. The client is part of a corporate family where they cooperate with each other.
They operate 45 shopping centers in 15 countries, and two of these shopping centers, located in Sweden, were in need of our help.
The problem.
In both centers, the food courts host several types of restaurants that release exhaust air containing high amounts of grease. The restaurants specialize in e.g. hamburgers or Asian cuisine. The grease can quickly start accumulating in the duct system—creating dangerous grease buildups that are hard to put out if they are ever ignited. It can also cause serious odor problems in the surrounding neighborhood if not treated continuously.
Our customer had two primary requirements: the treatment solution had to be sustainable, in order to meet the environmental goals of the company, and a single system had to be capable of managing exhaust air from several restaurants at once.
The solution.
In order to treat the high grease loads from the food courts, we delivered an Ozonetech RENA 80 ozone system to each shopping center.
The Ozonetech RENA 80 systems are part of our Ozonetech RENA Kitchen Solutions series that includes some of our most powerful ozone systems. They are specifically designed to tackle kitchen exhaust air and do so by injecting ozone into the kitchen exhaust air. This way, the systems break down the grease in the exhaust air and prevent any grease buildups from forming on the duct walls. This also greatly reduces the risk for dangerous duct fires, improving the fire safety for the whole building. Of course, any potential odor problems are also prevented.
Safety was also important for our client, so they also ordered solutions equipped with our online monitoring and control system, O3Eye™, which was integrated into their internal property management systems.
Evaluation.
The Ozonetech RENA 80 ozone systems, with a capacity of 7,000 l/s, are currently treating exhaust air from multiple restaurants at the same time, successfully preventing any grease buildups in the ducts.
What used to be a serious challenge for the property owner is now handled efficiently, sustainably and safely. Our O3Eye™ control system is continuously online and monitored by our technicians so that any malfunctions are prevented.
