Abstract:
This review is a summary of different aspects of the design and fabrication of a modified fume extractor. It covers different fume extractor designs and materials used for construction, applications of the fume extractors and the social and environmental effects of the fumes.
Fume extractors are the devices, which clean the air in surroundings from the unwanted and undesired particles from air. These have multiple uses in multiple fields. Consider living in an environment with consistent fumes tendering from all the sides residing in the lungs not knowingly, about their type and components that they are made up of. Almost all of the industries operating today are in dire need of fume extractors not only for the safety of their employees but also for the EPA standards set by the governments (Mohamed and Abdelakher, 2021).
The industrial sector has developed fume extraction systems to address the issue of air pollution because the EPA demands good air quality. The portable/mobile fume extraction system, stand-mounted fume extractors, and wall-mounted or fixed fume extraction systems are some examples of these systems. However, these fume extractors frequently operate ineffectively because the majority of them have an angle of 900, which means that many fumes will still be present in the surrounding area.
The modified fume extraction system is an enclosed system which would be able to catch maximum amount of fume and dust particles that are generated during the steel wool acid digestion process.
