In the industrial heartlands of Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, and Nilai, manufacturing processes often involve the use of aggressive chemicals that would rapidly corrode standard galvanized steel or even lower-grade stainless steel. Acid Exhaust Systems constructed from PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) or FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) are engineered to handle highly corrosive vapors, ensuring structural integrity and safety in hazardous environments.
EKG M&E Sdn Bhd specializes in the design, fabrication, and installation of these specialized exhaust systems, ensuring compliance with DOE (Department of Environment) emission standards and DOSH safety regulations.
Exhausting acid fumes requires materials that are chemically inert and resistant to oxidation.
Best For: Light to medium industrial applications, plating lines, and laboratories.
Chemical Resilience: PVC is highly resistant to a wide range of acids (such as Hydrochloric and Sulfuric), bases, and salt solutions. It is a cost-effective solution for environments with temperatures typically below 60°C.
Seamless Internal Surface: PVC ducts offer a very smooth internal finish, which minimizes air friction and prevents the accumulation of corrosive condensate.
Best For: High-temperature, heavy industrial, and large-scale chemical processing.
Structural Strength: FRP combines the chemical resistance of specialized resins with the mechanical strength of glass fibers. It can withstand much higher temperatures (up to 100°C+ depending on the resin used) and higher static pressures than standard PVC.
Custom Resin Selection: We select specific resins (e.g., Vinylester or Isophthalic) based on the exact chemical composition of your exhaust fumes to ensure maximum service life.
As a specialized M&E contractor, EKG ensures your chemical exhaust system supports both facility safety and EECA 2024 energy targets:
Elimination of "Corrosion Failure": Traditional metal ducts in acid environments often suffer from "pitting" and leaks, which can release toxic fumes into the workspace. PVC/FRP systems are inherently rust-proof, providing a 20+ year service life in harsh conditions.
TNB Energy Efficiency (VFD Calibration): Because PVC and FRP are lightweight and can be manufactured with ultra-smooth internal walls, they reduce static pressure. This allows your Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) to operate at optimal frequencies, directly reducing your monthly TNB electricity bill.
Airstream Integrity for Scubbers: These systems are the primary delivery path to Chemical Scrubbers. EKG ensures the ductwork is airtight (ATC 6 Compliant), ensuring all hazardous fumes are successfully delivered to the treatment unit without escaping into the factory environment.
Total 3D BIM Coordination: We model chemical exhaust paths in 3D to ensure perfect integration with chemical scrubbers, specialized fans, and existing structural supports.
DOE & DOSH Compliance: We provide full technical documentation and airflow traverse reports required for your Department of Environment (DOE) written notifications and annual stack monitoring.
Specialized Jointing Tech: Whether it is solvent welding for PVC or hand-layup lamination for FRP, our installers are trained to ensure every joint is as chemically resistant as the duct itself.
