Metals Manufacturing Industry – Iron Steel Aluminum
METAL IS THE BACKBONE OF INDUSTRY
The primary metals manufacturing industry includes iron & steel production as well as aluminum production.
For the iron and steel industry, a variety of clean air solutions are required for capturing, conveying, and collecting emissions from steel rolling mills, including fume exhaust, ventilation and process cooling systems. The iron & steel industry also requires technologies for product recovery, along with dampers and expansion joints, and pumps and valves.
For aluminum production, a variety of clean air solutions are required for capturing, conveying, and collecting emissions from aluminum rolling mills, including fume exhaust, ventilation and process cooling systems. The aluminum industry also requires technologies for product recovery, dampers and expansion joints, and pumps and valves.
