PAINTING BOOTHS WITH OVERSPRAY REMOVAL SYSTEMS, METHODS FOR REMOVING THE OVERSPRAY, AND PLANTS

摘要

A painting booth may include: a painting chamber and/or an overspray removal unit. Paint may be sprayed in the painting chamber. The painting chamber may be crossed by an air flow for evacuation of overspray from the painting chamber. When exiting the chamber, the air flow may pass through the overspray removal unit in order to remove the overspray from the air flow. The overspray removal unit may include an incoherent mass of cleaning elements kept in a stirred condition, through which the air flow containing the overspray passes so as to release the overspray onto the cleaning elements. A method for removing overspray from air flow exiting a painting booth may include: passing the air flow through an incoherent mass of cleaning elements which are kept in a stirred condition, so as to release the overspray onto the cleaning elements of the incoherent mass.
