The process
Curing presses release rubber fume at opening. Hoods over the presses take the fume to a scrubber or filter, and the curing hall needs heavy ventilation for the heat.
The gas
Rubber fume from curing presses condenses as a tacky film. The fan is in the exhaust after a scrubber or filter, with a wheel that can be cleaned and a casing with access doors.
