Addressing air quality issues

摘要

It should not come as a surprise that the compressed air used in food and beverage production is held to the highest quality and purity standards. However, there are currently no matching standards in place for exhaust air quality from vacuum pumps. For this reason, the food industry itself needs to tackle the issues of contaminated air that may be generated by an unsuitable vacuum pump. Most food and beverage manufacturing sites will follow the recognised principles of the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) to ensure compliance with all the necessary legislation, either eliminating any potential hazards or reducing them to an acceptable level.
