Demonstration of Spray Booth Recirculation and Partitioning - Phase II

Abstract

Acurex Environmental was contracted by the U.S. EPA to demonstrate an advanced pollution control cost reduction strategy at a U.S. Marine Corps maintenance facility in Barstow, CA. One booth was modified and two new booths were built and manifolded into a single air pollution control device. This SERDP funded project grew out of previous studies by the EPA and DoD to evaluate and develop economic volatile organic compound (VOC) control technologies for painting facilities. This first application of partitioned recirculating booth in a high volume production environment fulfills a stated SERDP goal of transferring promising design concepts into reliable production applications.
